  • Shoulder Press 5 x 1, Push Press 5 x 3, Push Jerk 5 x 5 Workout

    I wanted to do a bunch of other medium length chippers, but my hand was still torn up a bit and didn't want to retear when it's almost ready. I taped it up and did this WOD. It's a good one that I haven't done in a while.
    I wanted a bit of weight and not reinjure my hands so this was a good fit for me.
    Started with just pressing, PP & PJ with the bar, 75, & 95 lbs for a bunch of reps.
    Then started the WOD:
    Press: 115,120,125,130,135,140
    PP: 130,130,135,140,145,150 (actually the worst set i had was my first warm up with the PP of 125, after that, the weight was feeling good. I had a good rhythm with a good dip and keeping straight up and down and the sequence of the dip, hip thrust up and press out was very good.... good focus overall.)

    PJ: 125, 130, 135, 140 (ran out of time.. the lights were turned off and I did my last set in the dark)

    I think I could have gone a little bit heavier, but wanted to drill GOOD FORM, and KEEPING STRAIGHT UP AND DOWN.... NO bending forward or backward. I used wrists wraps for most sets. They helped quite a bit as my wrists were feeling it a bit. I was also trying to keep my wrists and forearms vertical more as well and keep the bar on my body longer

  • Box jumps, KBS, Push ups Workout

    14+ 3

    Yellow was easy so need to graduate to silver next time. Work on technique of bending elbows while swinging up/down. Just need to lock out at top. Toughest part was push ups.

  • Lifting: 5/3/1B w2d4 - bench press Workout

    Finishing up W2 of 5/3/1 with bench presses in the garage, then 50m sprints outside.

    Warmup:
    5 min jump rope, resistance band stretches and pulls.

    BENCH:
    Warmup sets: 5 x 55#, 5 x 65#, 3 x 80#
    Working sets: 3 x 95#, 3 x 110#, 3+ x 120# (8 reps)

    Strstd.com calculates my new theoretical 1RM at 151#, which is just over what I lifted for an actual 1RM the other week. So right on target. Warmup sets were easy, working sets also good. Tried to maintain good wrist form.

    Then
    5 x 10 @ 65#
    Smooth.

    Then
    Death By 50m Sprint
    Finished 3 rounds, failed on R4.

    Holy shit did that ever suck. I'm going to try to cut body fat in May, so I'm going to incorporate more sprinting in every week. Went on a flat stretch of sidewalk by the house and went back and forth to the confusion of a neighbor watering her garden. Like all Death By workouts, the first round was great. Hit a 7min/mi pace. After that, no. I may need to do this more, or change it to 30m sprints until I get better.
