2/10/14

AM Workout (0500)

Felt really solid in the gym today. This front squat progression is insane! Pumped to hit it tomorrow!

A.
Every minute, on the minute, for 8 minutes:
Front Squat x 3 reps @ 80-85%

-Went with 85% (325#) - TOUGH as hell. I can't believe how much I've improved my front squat via this EMOM cycle.

B.
Six sets of:
Power Clean + Clean
Rest as needed

-210#, 265#, 265#, 275#, 275#, 280#  (PR) - PR power clean is 285#, but for this complex this is a PR.
-Power clean was tough, squat clean felt easy.

C.
Every minute, on the minute, for 6 minutes:
5 Power Cleans (185/125 lbs)
10 Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups
Goal is to race through sets as quickly as possible, then rest the remainder fo the minute. Note times to completion in each of the 6 sets.

-Failed to finish all the reps during the 5th minute, went on to finish out all the reps into the 7th minute. C2B pull-ups felt rough today.

D.
For time:
60 Box Step-Ups (24″/20″) with Front-Racked Barbell (115/75 lbs)

-9.10. WTF painful... found a huge weakness here. I don't do these often enough. (Once a year?)

PM Workout (1500) 

I was a little tired this afternoon, but woke right up when I hopped on the airdyne. Legs felt really good on the airdyne portion. It felt good to put in some extra volume and move for 30 minutes.

EMOM 30:
-Minute one: :30 airdyne @ 100%
-Minute two: :30 plank hold
-Minute three: 10 burpees
