Day: October 23, 2014

2,263

Planned to go at 9am, but didn’t get up until 8:30 and that was only because I got a text from my Dad after DnD turned off on my phone. Guess I needed the sleep. Went to the 4:30 class instead.

Warm-up

  • 300m Row
  • Shoulder Pass Thrus
  • Bottom Squat Hold

Strength

Deadlifts

  • 6×155#
  • 6×245#
  • 6×315#
  • 6×335#
  • 6×345#
  • 6×355#
  • 6×365#
  • 6×375#

Hadn’t done anything more than 205# since September 12th, especially with the back tweak in the middle of that period somewhere. Felt solid.

Conditioning

Thruster Attack!

thrusters-are-coming

Every 1:30 for 5 sets

  • 15 Thrusters (95#)

It was a fight, but made every round unbroken. It was actually easier than on Sunday when it was every 1:45, so that’s 1:00 of less rest overall. Shows how sick I must have still been. Really felt a burn in the quads, which were probably working a little extra after the deadlifts trashed the posterior chain.

That completes the 10 week thruster program. I’m glad it’s over! Next up is to test out “Fran”. I was planning to do it Sunday, but might wait until next Sunday to let my body fully recover. We’ll see how the next two days go. Over the 10 weeks I did a total of 2,263 thrusters (not counting warm-ups).

Midline

  • 100 Sit-ups

Went unbroken in 3:34. Not blazing by what I’ve done before, but was pretty tired after the deadlifts and thrusters.

After class I jumped on the Reverse Hyper for 3x10x230#.
