Yesterday we tested your strength, today we test your work capacity- specifically your muscular stamina and conditioning.
What engines give out? Which engines stay strong? Lungs? Lower legs? Feet? Back? If you’re paying attention you can utilize different techniques to favor whatever engine is fresh.

We’re going to max out the bench press again so if you missed Monday you get another chance. If you WERE here let’s look for a 3RM max or grab a board and see if you can go over 100% with a shorter range-of-motion.
We’ll also hit the deadlift! Make sure your hands are ready and your posterior chain is set.
