5/11/12

Today was a solid training session. Squats felt surprisingly great and light. The metcon was good, but schooled me because of the hand-stand push-ups. But they are what I need to work on the most.

Back Squat:

75% x 3 - 285
80% x 2 - 305
85% x 1 - 325
80%x 3 - 305
85% x 2 - 325
90% x 1 - 345

Front Squat:

70% x 3 x 3 - 240

Rest 10 minutes then...

For time:

7 Rounds:
10 Wall-ball (20#)
10 Burpees (onto plate)
10 Knees-to-Elbows
5 HSPU (regional standard)

straight into....

400m Farmer Carry (2 x 53# KB)

26.57. Everything went pretty quick aside from the HSPU. The first 4 sets were unbroken, last 3 were 3/2. The farmer's walk really surprised me as well, it was hard as hell and I had to break it up a lot. Between the heavy hang cleans and 100 pull-ups yesterday my forearms and traps went out fast. This burned bad. Overall a solid session. I wish I was better at HSPU, but there's no way to wish my way there, just hard discouraging work like today.
