Training programs
  • Skills-Push Jerk-Row-HSPU Workout

    A.Three sets, not for time, of:
    Kettlebell Snatch x 8-10 reps
    Skin the Cat x 4-6 reps
    Strict Toes to Bar x 8-10 reps @ 3010
    (try to control the descent – 3 seconds – from top to full hang)

    Done. Needed a bit of help on the T2B and skin the cat on getting up there but controlled descent as much as possible. Did kb snatch with 12 and 16kg kb.

    B.Five sets of:
    Power/Push Jerk x 2-3 reps
    (try to work between 65-85% of your 1-RM . . . as long as you can bring it down safely)
    Rest 2 minutes between sets.

    42-46-49-52-55kg
    Man, had no pop today. Still, 55kg is good considering I’ve never push jerked that much.

    C.Four sets for max reps of:
    Against a 3-minute running clock, complete:
    Row 500 Meters
    Handstand Push-Ups x Max Reps

    2:02/3, 1:59/6, 1:59/7, 1:57/3
    Gassed out on that last set but happy with 7 unbroken as that is only 1 shy of old unbroken total. They feel easier this week for sure.
    Rest 3 minutes

    315/205 lb Deadlift x 10 reps

    Double-Unders x 30 reps

    18:38 as RX
    Not entirely stoked on this one but it’s the first time doing DL at volume in about 5 months so I wasn’t trying to rep it out. I took my time and focused on good mechanics, breaking them up into sets of 5s, 4s, or 3s. On a good note: did all the HSPU whereas in last Saturday’s WOD with 30 total, I could only complete 18. Progress!! Was getting sets of 7s and 5s in the beginning.
