12PM class yesterday, doing Saturday with Coach B-Ferg:
HBBS @ 31×1
(45×5, 95×4, 125×3, 145×1)
155x3x4
was planning on feeling this out b/c I am going back to high bar after low bar squatting for the last couple of years. used about 70% of my LBBS 1RM (225). tempo feels great. solid bottom position, not shifting much. really happy with this.
WOD with Katie Egan:
16 rounds + 10 push-ups and lunges for Katie
This wrecked me! push-ups all unbroken. last couple rounds got really rough. sore as shit today. did my best to push and get really uncomfortable on every run.
I'd like to state for the record that our class was technically doing 24' of lunges per round. so that's an extra 68 feet of lunging on our score! 😉
TODAY:
A. quick row and shoulder warm up
B. Power Clean, was doing about three reps at each weight just getting some work in, but felt great so decided to build to heavy-ish single:
85×3, 115×3, 125x1x3, 135x1x3, 145x1x3, 155×1, 165 F, F
my current PR is 165. was in metcons and not super committed. video review shows that even on 143 i'm still over-pulling a bit… shoulders too far back and bar coming fwd. need to break that habit and drill this in at that 125-145# range.
C. CONDITIONING
a. 10 MIN, easy pace
150m row
1 strict ring muscle up
5 power clean 95# (all singles)
transition (4 min)
b. 10 MIN, easy pace
*with a 15# weighted vest*
5 pull-ups
10 air squats
130m run
transition (3 min)
c. 10 MIN, easy pace
5 TTB
15 DU
25' Handstand Walk
a = 4 rounds + row + MU
-did one strict MU before the wod, and then only got one strict on my own during WOD. struggle bus. had david give me light assist on rounds 2+3, then just did a small kip for 4+5. too tired and sore!
b = 6 rounds + 15 reps
-once i got the rhythm, pull-ups weren't so bad. running was the worst part with the vest. so floppy! had to hold it down on my chest.
c = 7 rounds
– TTB feel great, DU smooth, HS walk mixed bag… got really tough in last few min. had a few rounds unbroken with it.
