Garage

I’m all over my new ultra efficiency garage workout – cooking – cleaning thing I have going on lol. I feel so productive.

  • Power Clean & Overhead Press – 1 Power Clean then strict OHP to failure, followed by push press to failure.
  • Barbell Bicep curls

Doesn’t sound like a lot…but I did tons of sets and reps and expect to be nice and sore tomorrow.

In between sets I cooked Craig’s dinner for tonight and lunch for tomorrow, unloaded the diswasher and did the laundry.
