Yesterday was a fun day! 


Week 1 of 5/3/1

Press
Warmup sets:  55/70/85#

Working sets: 5x90/5x105/7x120#

WOD:

5 Rounds for time of:
15 Hang Squat Snatch (75/45#)
50 Double Unders

14:55 Rx

This was a tough little WOD.  Really taxed the grip.  I forced myself to do a couple more reps before setting the bar down when I was tired.  Was able to hit 7 reps on the first set of snatches in the later rounds.  It became more of an issue of holding onto the bar rather than a strength fatigue issue.  Good times!

Day 1 down!

Week 1 Back squat (305# 1RM, 275# working load)

Warmup sets:
5x110/140/165

Working sets:
5x180/205/235

Clean pulls
5x225/245/265

WOD:
Front lever
60 seconds of total work
3 second holds
Rest 2 min.

The last set of back squats I ended up doing 8 reps. The hips were a little bit tired from the heavy jerks on the weekend. For the front lever skill work, I was running short on time so I cut the rest down to about 1 minute. Scaled to the tuck position with flat back.

Road to the Games '11

So I haven't posted here in awhile...but tomorrow is day 1 of training for the games in 2011!  I am going to chronicle my training from now until the 2011 games.  Follow along if you want, give me tips or suggestions, or even some workouts.  My goal?  Make it to regionals next year, or be on a team that makes it to the games!  It's going to be a long ride, with lots of ups and downs along the way.  Hang on, because it's time to Do Epic Shit!
