Kik - 11/15/2009 - upper - intensity (medium stress)

Second week of intensity, second bench session for this week. Everybody was somewhat beat up already, so this time reason needed to prevail. Consequently, we all went through a lot of singles with rather light weight and high speed, slightly below our 90 percent weights. In hindsight, my elbow feels much better, and I believe this session was a valuable contribution to improving everybody's technique.

back stuff and Russian twists for finishing up. Then sauna, where Jon was the victim of THE mid-age MIT shower voyeur. Congrats Jon, there is always a first time!
