Today was an awesome training session. Body felt great after three days off. Felt strong and fit, great stuff. The time off this last week was definitely necessary.

A. 

Over 20 minutes build to a 1 RM Power Clean 

-Built up to 315# ... this was a 15# PR ... missed two attempts at 325#. Was extremely close on the first attempt, should have gotten it. Was happy with 315# though, felt really strong. 

B.
Invictus Athlete Online Competition – Events 1-6
Perform the following six events against a running clock:

5 Minutes of Rowing for Max Meters
4 Minutes to Establish a 2-RM Front Squat
3 Minutes of Ring Muscle-Ups
4 Minutes to Establish a 1-RM Shoulder to Overhead
5 Minutes of Burpee Box Jump-Overs (24″/20″)

Rest exactly 5 minutes, and when the clock reaches 26:00…

Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 4 minutes of:
8 Thrusters (135/95 lb)
8 Toes to Bar 

1) 1501 - improved over 1457 from last year
2) 365# - improved over 335# from last year 
3) 15 - improved over 14 from last year 
4) 275# - improved over 255# from last year ... had 295# on there and should have got it easily ... just ran out of time ... lame
5) 47 reps ... decreased 1 rep from last year (FUCK) 
6) 56 reps (3 rounds + 8 thrusters)

-Was really happy with my effort here ... improved almost everything and was about the same on the 5th part. Really solid day, body felt great.
