I spent Saturday and Sunday at my frisbee team's regional qualifying tournament. We ended up placing second and qualifying for a spot at the national tournament at the end of the month! I felt relatively good, albeit a little slow, over the course of the weekend. I have a feeling that my focus on improving my strength may be slowing me down a little bit, but I don't really care right now.

Tonight I did Stronglifts B:

Back Squat 5x5 (135 lb)
Overhead Press 5x5 (55 lb)
Deadlift 5x1 (150 lb)
Pullup 10x3

Really need to concentrate on form on all of these exercises: for example, if I maintain a tight core for back squats, things are much easier. Same goes for overhead press and deadlift, actually. Pullup form wasn't great on all of my sets, but am going to stay at 10x3 for the next couple of times just to work on it. Even though it's still taking me a while to recover in between those sets of 3, I still think I'm making some progress, strength-wise. Now I just need to fit in a little kipping pullup work to really up my chances of being able to do pullup workouts as Rx'd.
