Much needed rest day yesterday after nine in-a-row, with two of those being active recovery days. My shoulders were a little sore, but felt fine this morning.
Strength
Bench Press
- 10×45#
- 8×95
- 4×135
- 4×165
- 4×185
- 4×195
- 4×205
- 4×215
- 4×225
Barely made it on the last set. Improvement over the 5x5x215 from last week.
Conditioning
- 10-8-6-4-2 Thrusters (135#)
- 50-40-30-20-10 Double Unders
I got this one from Beyond the Whiteboard in the Heavy Fitness Level category. Warmed up with 5×45, 5×95, and 3×115. My goal was to go unbroken, but I had no idea what the thrusters would feel like. I just remember being the EMOM with 3×155 a few weeks ago being nasty. I made it through everything unbroken and probably could have picked the bar sooner after each set of double unders. Finished in 4:57. I’m pumped I was able to do those unbroken.
Midline
2 Rounds
- 30 V-ups
- 60 Bicycles
- 30 Weighted Sit-ups (30# slam ball)
- 60 Flutter Kicks
- 30 Leg Raises
- 60 Mountain Climbers
These higher rep core movements get so bad in the first round. Took about 14 minutes to finish.
