5/8 – Sheiko #40 – Session 5

Good workout – not nearly as rough as Monday’s session was. First time doing deficit sumo deads in years – didn’t feel too bad. Was pretty toasted by the time I got to the heavy doubles from the floor and really had to grind the last few sets out.

5/6 – Sheiko #40 – Session 4

This workout was absolutely brutal. The second week is always the hardest week (for me at least) when doing these Sheiko routines. Tons of DOMS, fatigue, etc from the previous week and the second week doesn’t let up. This was extremely exhausting.
