Been staying up late watching the Olympics and I forgot all about keeping this thing updated. Didn't realize I was 5 workouts back. So here is a quick run off...
7.26.12
Strength
Front Squat - 6 x 3 @ 80% (375 1RM)
bar(10)-135(5)-185(5)-225(3) --- 300
WOD
Fran
21-15-9
Thrusters (95#)
Pull Ups
= 3:30
- Heading in to this my goal was going sub 3. I got 3:10 (pull ups completely UB & 15# lighter) back in November 2011. Unfortunately, I did not get it this time. Thrusters were all UB as they always have been, but my pull ups were broken up a bit. I did the first 21 butterfly kip (first time I've ever done that), but it blew my arms out. I can't remember how broken the last two rounds of pull ups were, but they were and that's where I lost time.
7.27.12
Strength
Push Press - 6 x 3 @ 80% (300 1RM)
bar(10)-95(5)-135(3)-185(3) --- 240
WOD
3 rounds FT:
10 Power Clean (135#)
200m Run
10 Shoulder to OH (135#)
200m Run
= 9:29
- All reps UB. I was very happy with the effort on this one. My runs were above average today. I felt real good on the bar. Solid effort today.
7.28.12
Team WOD (partnered with Michelle S. & CT)
In teams of 3, complete: (everyone works at same time)
4800m Run
75 Box Jumps (24")
150 Ball Slams (30#)
300 HR Push Ups
450 DUs
= 26:36
- Late night last night with friends meant I didn't get up early enough to get my Oly in so I stuck around for Team WOD (I know...twice in two weeks...crazy). Solid WOD. We all ran a mile to start and then just chipped away at the work the best we could. We split it up evenly amongst the 3 of us.
7.30.12
OWOD
Snatch off Blocks (ATK) - 7 x 2
bar progressions
95-135-155 --- 165 - 175 - 185 - 195 - 195 - 205 - 205
- These felt real good. Most were power snatches because my shoulder was still feeling pretty tight and making it difficult to get down. I had some very nice reps at 205 along with a miss per set. I was able to get all the way down by then and was landing flat footed. Felt like some things really clicked today in my vertical pull.
Snatch Hi Pulls - 4 x 3
185 - 205 - 225 - 225
- Focused on hitting positions on the way up, getting to full extension, and pulling bar to chest (not the other way around).
Strength
Back Squat - 4 x 3 @ 75% (460 1RM)
between sets...2 High Box Jumps (40")
225(5)-275(3) --- 345
- Little bit a deload this week. Box jumps weren't strenuous, but helpful to add some explosiveness to the work. Everything felt good.
WOD
3:00 AMRAP
7 ring dips
7 wall walks
15 sit ups
-1:00 REST-
3:00 AMRAP
7 pull ups
7 burpees
15 supermans
= 1+9 & 2+24
- This was terrible on the shoulders. The first 7 wall walks destroyed me. I got two more in before the buzzer, but I was shaking like crazy...I seriously thought I was gonna crush my face possibly. Pull ups were all smooth butterfly and UB. Just kept moving on this one. Supermans are active rest...just being honest!
7.31.12
Strength
Press - 4 x 3 @ 75% (225 1RM)
between sets...ME DH Pull Ups
bar(10)-95(8)-135(5) --- 170/12 - 170/7 - 170/7 - 170/4
- Poor clock management on this one. I should have had a little more rest in between sets. My arms died by the end. Felt strong though on the press.
WOD
Complete FT:
1000m Row
30 Box Jumps (24")
800m Run
10 HSPUs (UB)
= 10:13 (30 HSPUs (10-5-5-5-5) @ 13:19)
- Wanted to catch CT (9:46...I believe) on this one, but just couldn't make it happen on the run. My box jumps were fast (but painful coming off the rower), but when I hit that run...it took sometime to get em going again. I pushed for 30 HSPUs just because I wanted to keep working on these in WODs when my lungs are blowing so I don't blow up the next time I do Diane. My kip was feeling really good on the first 10..nice, short, steady, and fast. The last two sets of 5 I had to use a longer kip, but it definitely made a difference. Had another click go off in my head during this one...feels good.
Cash Out
GH Raises - 3 x 8
