Sunday Extras

I busted out the dynamic bench press work.

• 2×3 @ 45#
• 1×3 @ 95#
• 1×3 @ 115#
• 8×3 @ 135#

Then I grabbed the jump rope and knocked out 53 DUs in a row, which breaks my old PR of 44. I should do them with untied shoes more often! Oh, and then I went back out and tried them again a bit later and got 70 in a row!

Casey A, Michelle, and Kevin came over to do some OLY work in the garage. Casey, Michelle, and I are all doing a team competition on Saturday where we have to do a max snatch as well as a max clean and jerk.

Casey and I did a bunch of lifts at lighter weights and then started going heavy. I set a PR by hitting a 145# snatch. My technique is still pretty bad, but it’s not going to improve a lot in the next week. In the competition I think we’ll have to rush through our snatches and focus more of the C&J because we’re more likely to hit some big PRs there. The 3 guys have 8 minutes to do both sets of lifts and the women have the same amount of time. The weight can’t decrease during the snatch or C&J portions though, only in between. Should be fun.
