Today was a good workout ... but was overall pretty rough. Part D was stupid hard ... it wasn't even really a workout, just a struggle to even get through the movements. Jerking felt terrible today ... I'm extremely sore from the workout with 96 push-press in it on Wednesday ... had nothing in my triceps and shoulders. Overhead squatting went well though, big effort on part B, great training.

A.
Every 90 seconds, for 9 minutes (6 sets):
Jerk x 2 reps @ 75-90% (225# - 275#)
Use jerk blocks if possible. Mark your feet and set your goal to be perfect with your footwork and mechanics for each jerk.

-225# x 2, 245# x 2, 255# x 2 ... failed the second reps on the two sets of 255# ... haven't failed such light numbers in a long time, just nothing there today.

B.
Every 3 minutes, for 15 minutes (5 sets) for times:
Row 300 Meters
3 Power Snatches @ 70% (165#) of 1-RM Snatch
6 Overhead Squats
Finish each set as quickly as possible and note times for each.

-Big effort here... great training. The last few sets were a real struggle.

C.
EMOM for 15 minutes:
Bench Press x 2 reps @ 70% (185#)

D.
Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 8 minutes of:
4 Muscle-Ups
8 Strict Handstand Push-Ups
12 Overhead Walking Lunges with Kettlebells (24/16 kg KBs)
