  • Power clean & power jerk, false grip pull up, kipping ring dips Workout

    Warmup
    Tabata- Double Unders

    3 Minute AMRAP of:
    5 Squat Jump
    10 Air Squat
    5 Each Jump Lunge
    10 Each Alternating Lunges

    Strength/skill
    Power Clean + Power Jerk- 3 Minutes WU to 75%
    3 Every 45 Seconds for 18 Reps

    Worked @ 55# - probably too light. This was tough, very limited rest in between sets.

    Strict False Grip Pull Up
    2-3 Minutes Practice
    1-3 Reps Every 30 Seconds for 6 Minutes

    Did this with knees & feet on the ground. Felt a little easy? Need to try not to just stand up/use less legs.

    For Time: 50 Kipping Ring Dips
    5:46, with toes on box. This BURNED. Started doing sets of 2 midway through, and probably using more knees than I should have.

    For time,

    21-18-15-12-9-6-3

    Front squats 185/130 (NO racks) MOD 85

    V-ups

    Time - 23:40

    That's A LOT of front squats. Broke it down into 7's, then 6's, 5's, 4's, then starting with the round of 9, I went unbroken. My v-up's could use some help!

  • 07.22.13 Wallballs, Hand Release Push Ups Workout

    Every min on the min- 10 mins

    2 Power cleans + 2 Push jerks- Weight can be added but the goal is to improve form. Touch & Go on Cleans, go straight from Cleans to Jerks with out putting the bar back down (Did the first 3 rounds with 85, then moved up to 95. Tough but felt good! Then, to cash out, did 10 hang power cleans w/95 without putting the weight down)

    Then,

    7min AMRAP

    10 Wallballs 20/14

    10 Hand release push ups

    4+6 rounds (the push jerks/power cleans killed my strength on the wallballs!)

  • Row Half Marathon (21,097 meters) Workout

    So... I've been dropping the ball again logging my workouts.

    WOD
    Row half marathon (21,097 meters)

    Time: 1:37:42

    Notes: Well, the furtherst I've ever been on the rower is 10k. I just winged it. Honestly, it wasn't that bad for most of the workout. However..... at 6k my butt was completely numb. Then at 4k the butt cramps began (I never thought I would say that). I was pausing every 10 minutes to drink some water w. a Nuun tab, but I was still cramping up. I also thought of the brilliant strategy of 10 hard pulls and then 10 medium pulls, however on my very first hard pull my calf cramped up so I tossed that strategy. I decided to just hang in there. Seriously, from 4k to finish it sucked. All in all, I'm glad that's out of the way.
