Day: March 4, 2018

Hold That Max

Didn’t need the rest day yesterday but I got busy coding some of my home automation stuff and didn’t really feel like sweating.

Active Life – Hips

Warm-up

  • 10 Side Shuffles (10m)
  • 2:00/2:00 Banded Posterior Hip Distraction
  • 10/10 Lateral Leg Swings

Workout – 6 Sets (3/leg)

  • 12 Lateral Box Step-ups (30″)
  • 5/5 Eccentric Ankle Dorsiflexion

Conditioning

12:00 AMRAP

  • 4 Shuttle Run (10 yards)
  • 12 Wall Balls (20#, 10′)
  • 48 Double Unders

Could we see shuttle runs in the Open? They were introduced in the judges course several years ago. I missed too many dubs and have plenty of marks to prove it. Finished 6+16.

Active Life – Back Max

4 Sets

  • 30s Overhead Barbell Hold (goal is 100% 1RM Shoulder Press)
  • 40m Double KB Front Rack Carry (53#)

I did the first set with 165# and 3 sets with 185. My wrists really felt that hold and the combination with the front rack carry was challenging. Took about 8 minutes.
