I noticed this yesterday a lot, it wasn’t as relevant today. I haven’t counted calories in a while, and it was noticeable yesterday and today as I felt a little sluggish. As the temperature gets hotter, I always try and up my calorie intake, but I believe I am going the other way. So I’m going to focus on that a little more to make sure I have the fuel to support the heat, work and performance

Goal was to be done with 5 or 6 by the 1 minute mark and whatever the heck happens after that happens. I think I jumped on the bar a few seconds left in the 1st minute. Round of 8 was when I noticed that i was focusing on pulling more than staying engaged and hollow. That was also the round I took my gloves off, i wanted to feel the bar. But put them back on. 9 was ok but wasn’t rushing the issue, 10 was no question but a grind. The next time this is done I would like to push the envelope a little more up to the round of 7, and then grind through the 8,9,10. Today i just let it flow

Had 7-8 done in the first minute by all singles. So I’m not super happy, a little pissed actually about this or the drastic fall off, but I also did not have a plan or feel super jazzed going into it

I actually enjoyed this today, so maybe that means I didn’t push hard enough? Had a semi gameplan that I knew I was going to adjust in the moment. Goal was first minute avg 450+ watts, next minute hold mid 300’s, then back up, did that for 30, backed off for about 30, that put me at 3 minutes in, i went back up, and told myself I can hold this to not back off again, so stayed around 400 watts, and then the last 15 cals started trying to crank what I had left, I probably could’ve kicked sooner and held on. But I’m fairly happy because I’m pretty sure this is progress.
