October can be tricky when it comes to picking out morning workout attire. For much of the year you want either as much or as little clothing as possible but October is different. It’s the official start of Layer season. This morning marked my first two-shirt’er in many months. I don’t recall whatever base layer I chose but the cool air called for an old favorite over top - the infamous purple 2015 BRR long sleeve. Still fits like a glove and reminds me of my days as a runner. Plus, it provides just the right amount of warmth on a crisp but not cold morning. I’m not looking forward to when it inevitably becomes a middle layer, but that’s hopefully a worry for a different month. For today it was perfect as we knocked out Week 6 Day 2 of the current spreadsheet. WARMUP: SSH x20, Arm circles forward/backwards, 10 two-handed swings, IW x10, Prying squat, 10 two-handed swings THE THANG: Week 6 Day 2 of KB Hypertrophy… Superset 1: double Romanian deadlift x 8; double bent over rows x 8 - 4 sets Superset 2: single Romanian deadlift x 10/each side; single arm high pull x 6 each arm - 3 sets Waiter carry x 50 yards - 4 sets Snatch EMOM: six reps each side x 5 MARY: 90-second plank
