I’m Broken

Holy Fuck! My lower body doesn’t work today and my left hip feels like it constantly needs to pop. I forgot what it feels like to take a week away from the weights. Didn’t even think yesterday was that bad. Boy, was I wrong! Needless to say I didn’t feel like leaving the house and having anyone see how I’m walking. :-O Out in the garage around 1:30 again.

Warm-up

  • 5:00 Air Dyne (1.53 miles)
  • Crossover Symmetry Activation
  • Shoulder Press
    • 5×45#
    • 5×75#

Strength

E3M – 5 Sets

  • 10 Shoulder Press (95#)
  • 10 Good Mornings (95#)

Will my upper body be wrecked tomorrow from the same 5×10 that I used for squats yesterday? I was going to do some EMOM split jerks next, but thought better of it. Didn’t feel like moving the car out of the garage and not a smart idea to use the blocks so close to the ride.

Gymnastics

16:00 EMOM (alt)

  • 35s Handstand Hold (facing wall)
  • 25s False Grip Hang (fat bar, holding Fat Gripz, feet on ground)

Conditioning

21-15-9

  • GHD Sit-up
  • Goblet Squat (30# MB)

Quick one, done in 3:37. The squats were at a controlled pace with how I’m feeling. Sit-ups were starting to slow down so that was the right amount for today. Finished up with Crossover Symmetry Plyo.

Storm the Garage

Out in the garage with the storm coming tonight. Started at 1:35pm with Crossover Symmetry Activation.

8 Rounds

  • 20s Parallette HS Hold
  • 40s Rest

A lot different feel to these. Probably could have done 30 seconds but being my first time I wasn’t sure how they would go.

10:00 EMOM (alt)

  • 20s False Grip Bar Hang
    • Wrists over fat pull-up bar
    • Holding Fat Gripz
    • Feet on ground to lighten the load
  • 12 Incline DB Bench Press (35#, low incline)

Starting out easy. Holding an L-sit with the wrists over the bar would be interesting to try once I can build up some strength in the false grip.

24-16-8

  • Weighted GHD Sit-ups (15#)
  • Dumbbell Snatches (50#)

Finished in 5:41.

50 Reps for time

  • Parallette Shoot Throughs

Not the type with a dip on one side and push-up on the other. I did extend my hips out in front on each rep though. Was not expecting these to take so long. Started with a set of 10, then some 5s before dropping to triples. Was done with 25 at 2:28 and thought about decreasing the count. Finished them all at 5:31.

Ended with Crossover Symmetry Plyo. All done at 2:31pm for sub-hour workout.
