Thanks for the insight TigerJ. I guess the deload week could give me a chance to work on some "skill-based" body weight stuff that I want to accomplish/master like muscleups, one-arm chinups, pistol squats etc.

This morning walked 3 miles just because I work much more effectively if blood gets moving first.
I probably shouldn't have done anything after my deadlifts etc yesterday, but had to work out some frustrations.
Afternoon kettlebell clean and jerks
24k 6 rounds of 5, 1 min rest (24k is heavy for me)
20k 6 rounds of 7, 45 secs rest
16k doubles (1 in each arm), 5 rounds of 10, 30 secs rest. Those double k-bell exercises are b r u t a l . 5 rounds all I could manage.
As an aside, the kettlebell clean and jerks and/or snatches are the closest you can get to Oly lifting without that setup. I like them a lot.
Tomorrow I will really have to take it easy and take a total rest day or something with no weight involved ie rowing machine or hill runs.
today I destroyed my hamstrings...
did my standard starting strength : squats 375, bench 270, and then pulls and dips
after that I had a basketball game and directly following that i had ultimate... needless to say my hamstrings are destroyed right now
I didn't like the rules you gave me, so I made some of my own.
