Open Feel

Went in for open gym at noon.

Warm-up

  • Bottom Squat Hold
  • Dead Hang
  • 10 PVC Passes
  • 3 Sets
    • 30 Lateral Hops (over empty bar)
    • 5 Power Snatch (45#)
    • 5 BTN Snatch Grip Push Press (45#)
    • 5 OHS (45#)

Conditioning

8:00 AMRAP

  • 8 Power Snatch (95#)
  • 8 Bar-facing Burpees

Looks and felt a bit like an Open workout. I did 2×4 for every round of snatches. First round was done in 1:00 and I knew that wasn’t going to continue. The next two rounds were right around 1:30. Finished with 5+11.

Accessory

5 Sets

  • 3 Rope Pulls
  • 7 Evil Wheels
  • 10 Pistols

Been far too long since doing pistols. Could really feel them in my hips and I’m sure my knees will be complaining tonight and tomorrow.

Build it Back

Out in the garage after 9:30am.

Active Life – Bulletproof Shoulders 7

3 Rounds

  • 10/10 Single Arm RKB Swing (35#)
  • 10/10 Single Arm Suitcase Deadlift (53#)

4 Rounds

  • 50m Farmer Carry (2×90#)
  • 10/10 Shoulder Nerve Flossing (10 palms down and palms up)
  • 45s Rest

Holy shit! Those carries got rough to hold on to. I finally figured out a good way to strap in the weights without them banging up my legs.

Strength

Back Squat

  • 10×45#
  • 5×95
  • 5×135
  • 5×165
  • 5x5x185

I don’t have my new rack installed yet and there is a big tool on one of my jerk blocks, so I took every set from the ground. The squats felt heavy, but have to build back up from somewhere.

Conditioning

Ran 2.02 miles in 20:36.
