Day: February 1, 2016

Heavy Touch-n-Gos

Lower body is sore from yesterday. Went to the 4:30 class and got there early to do some extra warming up.

Warm-up

  • Crossover Symmetry Activation
  • 3×8 Reverse Hyper (210#)
  • 2:00 Double Unders (172 reps)
  • 1:00 Bottom Squat Hold
  • 50 Jumping Jacks
  • 10 Air Squats

Strength – Back Squat

  • 8×45#
  • 6×135
  • 4×185
  • 4×235
  • 10:00 EMOM
    • 5x2x255
    • 3x2x275
    • 2x2x295

Originally planned to stay at 255 pounds and ease my back into lifting again. Felt good so pushed on. Maybe too much though. Wasn’t wearing lifters or a belt. We’ll see how I feel in the morning.

Conditioning

20:00 EMOM (alt)

  • 4 Power Snatch (155#)
  • 12 Weighted Step-ups (20″, 35# KBs)

Rough! Managed to finish all of the snatches touch-n-go with no misses. I have never done anything close to that many heavy unbroken sets. My hands got real sweaty from having the arms hanging with the step-ups and everything dripping down on to them. I was doing 6 step-ups in a row before switching legs so it would be faster. Still was taking over 30 seconds to do them though.

Midline

  • 100 Sit-ups

Didn’t even look to see what time I started on the clock. Wasn’t going to be close to a PR anyway. Still did them unbroken though.

Rest day tomorrow!
