Short Test Thursday

Back to the 9am class today. It just has a different vibe. I like working out in the mornings.

Warm-up

4 Rounds

  • 15s Air Squats
  • 15s Zombie Kicks
  • 15s Mountain Climbers
  • 15s Arm Circles

Snatch Positions

I worked on the positions of setup, an inch off the floor, above the knee, and pockets (power) with the 3-position snatch deadlifts. Did several reps along with holds at each position with each weight. Used lifting straps too. Went 45-95-135-165-185-195-215.

MAX Unbroken DU (3:00)

I screwed up after 29 took a break, calmed myself down and then went crazy! Was feeling a little fatigued when I got in the 60-70 range, but got a second wind somehow and fell into a better rhythm. Blew past 100 reps (my old PR) and ended up with 139. BOOM!! Got an instant headache after that. There was probably a minute or so left on the clock but there was no I was beating that.

Conditioning

21-15-9

  • Front Squats (95#)
  • Burpees

Broke up the set of 15 front squats into 8-7, did everything else unbroken, and pushed hard through the 9 burpees. Took me 4:26.
