I ran out of a post-workout supplement I’d been using and I can really tell the difference in my recovery over the last week. I’ve had more soreness and for longer. I’ll have to stock back up when I get home. Didn’t sleep the greatest last night, but went to bed early enough to get a solid night of rest.
Warm-up
2x
- 250m Row
- 3 World’s Greatest Stretch (each leg)
- 10 Leg Swings (each leg and direction)
- 10 Flamingos (each leg)
- 10 Burpees
Strength
- 3-2-1-3-2-1 Deadlift
- 2-3m Rest
We moved some serious weight today, starting with the strength work. I warmed up with 6 reps at 135# and 3 reps at 225#. I made sure to rest a full 3 minutes between each set. My working sets were:
- 3x 255#
- 2x 275#
- 1x 295#
- 3x 275#
- 2x 295#
- 1x 315#
I had never attempted more than 290# before, but had done it for a set of 5 so I knew I could PR today. 315# was pretty heavy.
WOD
Every minute on the minute for 10m:
- 3 Deadlifts (85% of heavy single)
- 6 HR Push-ups
Holy shit balls! For 85% of 315# I went with 265#. A total of 30 fucking reps with very little rest. Not quite sure how I was able to get through every round. I’m already feeling it. The next few days are going to be sore city and sitting in a car for close to 30 hours won’t help.
