AFTER the 285 kg failure on the yoke walk I just picked it up and held it a couple of times for as long as I could while Dan and Dave assessed my form. I believe I just went too heavy too soon; once the yoke was swinging with my momentum, I just couldn't keep moving... it made my core collapse!

And no PRs on the deads today - super-setting them with the yoke was just an energy-sapping combo. I couldn't really max out on either one and ended up dividing my strength between them, and so working at about 75% potential.

It was a great session. Not sure I should be doing it every week though, this was really just an experimental approach I hoped would push my conditioning and also save some time. From that perspective it was a huge success.
