Another Mile

Warm-up

  • 3 Rounds
    • 10 Air Squats
    • 5 Push-ups
  • 30 Mountain Climbers

Conditioning

12:00 AMRAP

  • 5 Pull-ups
  • 8 Hang Power Cleans (135#)
  • 10 Burpee over the Box Jumps (24″)

Completed 5 rounds plus 5 pull-ups, 8 cleans, and 5 of the burpee boxes. My burpee box overs were so slow!

10 Rounds

  • 20s Wall Balls (20#, 10′)
  • 40s Rest

Got 10 every round. Easy.

Ran a mile, probably at about an 8:30 pace if I had to guess. Good time to work on shortening my stride and landing midfoot instead of running on my toes.

Strength

Close Grip OHS

  • 2x5x45#
  • 5×75#
  • 5×95#
  • 2×115#
  • 2×135#
  • 2×155#
  • 2×175#
  • 2×185#
  • 1×195#

Up to 135 with pinkies on the inner knurl marks and then after than I had to slowly keep moving them out. With 195# I think my index finger was just outside of the 2nd knurl marks. Still much closer than a snatch grip though.

I let Kevin talk me into running “another mile”, which fucking turned in to nearly 3 miles. A lot of time to practice running technique improvements.
