I asked her if we could do a big strawberry patch this year. like 100+ plants, hoping for 1-2lbs per plant, to harvest and make some strawberry wine or brandy in the fall and she said lets start small cause she has no luck with strawberries. now I know why!!! we fight the critters so much out here. she was on someone elses farm last week and they had row after row after row of strawberries and she told them how jealous she was that they don't fight the animals like we do lol.

Notes
Came short of cycle PR but I doubt I've ever done 6+ at this weight anyways and I'm still clearly beating the RX by a margin, so stay the path. It did NOT torch me nearly like last weeks AMRAP though.
Subbed 5 x 10 at 145 for 5x5 at 195 paused on the BBB. Seemed like a good mixup since pauses tend to have good carry over for me.
Holding off on any slingshot work until the last week before deload.

Benching 250 x 6 is impressive no matter if it was a PR or not.

Thanks man, I'm basically sitting at historical plateau in some ways so if I can avoid injury, burnout, and fatigue for another cycle or two bench should see a PR. Deads and squats are going to take more work but everything has been hard and I think that's good.Benching 250 x 6 is impressive no matter if it was a PR or not.
