Quick Couplet

Thursday was a horrible day. I had some sort of stomach bug all day and was just miserable at work. Worried I came down with some sort of stomach flu, but I'm not sure. I was finally fine when I got home, so decided I'll try going to the gym since it was a pretty light day.

Front Squat 5x5 heaviest possible
Bar - 65x5 - 85x5 - 10x3 - then my 5x5 sets at 115

Really tried to focus on my butt wink here and getting rid of that. So I'm really engaging my core and twisting out my knees to make sure I don't butt wink. Felt great. Think I could've gone a little bit heavier, but with what I was focusing on I felt good about it.

Press est. 5RM
65x5 - 70x5 - 80x5

Wanted to get this in since I missed it last week and knew it was coming up tomorrow. And since I'm doing the hero wod tomorrow, wanted to get it in. I just guessed it would be around 80 given that my 1rm is 95. Last rep on the 5 was definitely well earned.

WOD:
5 Rounds FT:
20 sit-ups
15 kb swings (53/35)
5:33

Again I was considering using the 44# KB, but with the hero wod tomorrow, I decided not to. This was a quick and easy couplet which is probably what I needed with how my stomach was feeling.
