12/10/13

I was extremely tired when I woke up this morning; more so than yesterday. I didn't feel great today. I was half awake for the gymnastics warm-up. I felt good on the barbell stuff once I got rolling though. I went to complete failure on part C. I almost got every set unbroken, but had to break up the set of 8 S2O at 205#. Went 6/1/1. The HSPUs on part D were terrible. I had to breakup the sets from the first set due to shoulder fatigue from part C. Tough day of training, this is probably the least excited I've been to be in the gym in a long time. Law school finals will do that though. I'm glad I got the work in today, taking tomorrow off.

A.
Three sets, not for time, of:
Rope Climbs x 2 ascents
Hand Stand Hold x 60 seconds
L-Sit x 20 seconds

B.
Six sets of:
Push Press + Jerk
Rest 2-3 minutes
185#, 205#, 215#, 215#, 225#, 235# (PR)

C.
Four sets for times:
Power Clean x 6 reps
Rest 60 seconds
Shoulder to Overhead x 8 reps
Rest 60 seconds
Goal is to work on speed and efficiency here. Ascend in load for each of the four sets.
* Set 1 – 155/105 lbs
* Set 2 – 170/115 lbs
* Set 3 – 185/125 lbs
* Set 4 – 205/135 lbs

11:00 - 7:00 rest = 4:00 working time, all sets unbroken but last set of S2O. (6/1/1)

D.
Three sets for times of:
10 Burpees
10 Handstand Push-Ups
10 Box Jumps (24″/20″)
Rest 60 seconds
-I didn't get the time on this. I assume this is supposed to be an unbroken 1:1 work to rest because that is what my training partner did. I had to break up the HSPU... a lot. Rough mentally.  I was really happy about my effort on part C though. Much needed rest tomorrow.
