7/6/2011

Today was a very intense workout. I was tired when I woke up this morning and a little nervous about getting in the gym. I felt decent once I warmed up and had a very good workout. It looked like this:

Bench Press - Heavy Singles: 205, 215. Immediately strip the 215 and max reps with 135: I scored 15 reps.

Back Squat - 10 x 3 @ 300 lb. - These sets were difficult; by far the most difficult of this strength cycle. Sets 7+ were brutal.

Snatch Grip Push-Press 5,4,3,2,1 - 95, 135, 155, 165, 185 - The lockout on the single was questionable, but I'm still counting it.

Metcon:

20 Minute AMRAP
200m Run
20 Box Jumps 24"
10 x 265 lb Dead-lift

7 Rounds and 9 Box Jumps

Rest 5 minutes then:

Tabata Sit-ups with plank hold as rest, immediately followed by 60 second plank hold.

The running and box jumps were terrible after all those squats. And 265 got heavy about half way through the workout. I felt very taxed after everything. The plank was a nice way to finish out the workout. I'm happy to be back in the gym and throwing around some heavy-ish weight. Overall a great day.
