60 Day Lifting Challenge – Week 7 Day 4

I’m doing the 60 Day Lifting Challenge from Columbus Weightlifting. Doing a little swapping around this week, so taking the heavier day 5 program today and will do day 4 work tomorrow to get more recovery going into week 8. Lifted by myself out in the garage around 4:30.

Warm-up

Crossover Symmetry Activation

Muscle Clean

  • 3×95#
  • 3×105#
  • 3×115#
  • 3x3x125#

Kept em on the lighter end today.

Snatch

  • 2×100#
  • 2×120#
  • 2×140#
  • 1×150#
  • 1×160#
  • 4x1x170#

Felt alright today. Not great, but made every lift. Had to pull the last one in and be patient with it.

Clean & Jerk

  • 2×135#
  • 2×155#
  • 2×180#
  • 1×190#
  • 1×205#
  • 4x1x215#

Was trying to be more vertical with my jerk drive and it threw everything off. Not the greatest feel today.

Back Squat

  • 2×205#
  • 2×240#
  • 2×270#
  • 3x2x290#

Felt a lot easier than 2 days ago and I took shorter rest between the heavy sets today.

Conditioning

15 Rounds

  • 5 HR Push-ups
  • 10 Sit-ups

Not that tough on cardio or muscle fatigue. I wanted to stick to small sets so that I wouldn’t die on push-ups and have to rest. Time was 8:40.

Did Crossover Symmetry Recovery to end the day.
