Noon weightlifting w/ Carl

Push-jerk day

5-5-5-3-3-1-1-1

135-145-155-165-185-195-205-210(fail)

I was definitely burned out this week. My right shoulder still felt strained from receiving Tuesday's 155# thrusters in a weakened (not pulled back on the "shelf" (see video)) shoulder position. I could barely put up 87% of my personal best. Fri-Sun are necessary rest days.

Noon weightlifting w/ Kelly
Today's stimulus was deadlifting from a slightly elevated height. Hit 345, matching a previous 'regular' DL record.

6pm group class w/ Kelly


Tonight's workout was the most destroyed I've felt in a LONG while. As a team of 2, we kept a running rep count between the 4 exercises, over 5 rounds with each partner performing a movement for 30 seconds, then resting for 30 while the other person performed the same movement, then person 1 starts their 30 sec of the next piece, and so on. 1 minute rest between each complete round.
  • 155# Thrusters
  • Burpees
  • Piked/handstand pushups
  • Pullups
I teamed up w/ Damien, and we got a total of 406. Lucas/JD got 410, the only other group doing 155#. I puked in the middle of round 4 but jumped back in to finish. We maintained a pretty consistent rep count across all 5 rounds.

730am w/ Kelly

After a solid warmup, we worked on getting a single heavy thruster, and a single 'snatch-grip' deadlift.

Once we had prepped, we got three 'official' attempts at each lift.

My lifts were at follows:
Thruster: 155/185/205
Snatch-grip DL: 235/275/--

If I knew that the 205 was going to leave as much room for more, I would've tried for something like 220 or 225. Next time.

Wide grip deadlifting I found to be difficult to hold onto. The last failed attempt was @ 305.
