5-27-13

A.  Push Press 3,2,1: Rest 3 min
1 x 3 @ 185lbs, 1 x 3 @ 195lbs, 1 x 3 @ 205lbs, 1 x 2 @ 215lbs, 1 x 1 @ 225lbs - These felt okay but not great.  I had a knot under my left scap that was annoying me.  I was wanting to work up to  230 or 235 but I just wasn't feeling it.   I need more work here for sure.

B.  Push Jerk x 2, Split Jerk x 2; Rest 2 min x 6 complexes
3 @ 205lbs, 2 @ 215lbs, 1 @ 225lbs ( I missed the last jerk at 225 but picked it right back up off the blocks and got it)  The jerks felt good I feel that I could use some work on the Split I don't feel like I drop quick enough

C.  Speed Bench Press with Bands; 3 Reps x 12 sets; Rest 45 sec. 45% of 1 RM (125lbs with blue bands)
This felt good quick and pretty light.  135lbs was 45% of my 1 RM.  I didn't have any chains but I am going to Pick some up this week.  I have never really used them any suggestions would be helpful.

500m row @ Best 2K pace + 2sec; Rest 2 min x 4
1:40.2;  1:39.0;  1:38.8;  1:38.0   -  I really didn't have  a 2K time trial to base this off so I was just going at about 85 to 90% for 500m.  I was never gassed and they all felt good.

+

60 min. Triple Under and Hand Stand Hold practice, and gymnastic play
This was fun.  My training partner Gabrielle and I had several competitions with each other   Triple Unders sucked I think that I only got 3 legitimate ones the whole time.  Double unders give me a hard enough time. 


5-29-13

A.M.

A.  Weighted Pull-ups @ 31x1  2-3 x 4; Rest 2 min
2 x 3 @ 35lbs; 2 x 3 @ 40lbs; 2 x 3 @ 45lbs;  1 x 3 @ 50lbs;  1 x 2 @ 55lbs;  2 x 2 @ 60lbs  - These felt pretty good 

B.  3 Unbroken Muscle Ups EMOM for 8 min

C.  3 Rounds for Time
    15 unbroken C2B pull-ups
    50 unbroken Double Unders
 20:44  - I'm embarrassed to even write this score.  I could not string together the DUs.  I ended up doing 2 sets of 25 per round.  I was so pissed. I got a bad shin splint on my left leg and the same arch cramped up, and my left hand was just re-tarted and couldn't keep a rhythm. This was horrible I need help.     C2B felt good though.

P.M.

A.  Clean Pulls  3,3,2,2 ; Reat 3 Min
2 x 3 @ 135lbs, 2 x 3 @ 225lbs, 1 x 3 @ 245lbs, 1 x 3 @ 265lbs, 2 x 3 @ 285lbs, 1 x 2 @ 295lbs, 
1 x 2 @ 305lbs  - The pull off the ground and shrug felt good, they kept getting a bit slower as the weight went up but form never broke down

B.  Heavy Tire Flips; 5 AFAP x 5; Rest 2 min between sets
0:37;  0:40;  0:37;  0:44;  0:46  - The tire was just a few inches shorter than I am, the bigges one that we have.  This was fun.

C.  AMRAP Unbroken 88lb KBS x 4; Rest 90 sec.
30, 22, 20, 14  - Grip was the limiting factor here.  Hip drive and core stability weren't the big issue.  On the last set a blister on my right pinky finger popped. Still these aren't the numbers that I wanted on the last 3 sets.

A.M.

A. Press Clusters   3. 3. 3. 3  x  5 ; Rest 30 sec / 3 min
1@ 115lbs; 1@125lbs; 1@ 135lbs;  1@ 145lbs;  1@ 155lbs  - these felt pretty good 155 was the only set that got tough, the last 3 were a real struggle - I knew that I was arching my back

B1.  Incline Bench Press  12 - 15 x 4; Rest 30sec.
1 x 15 @ 135lbs; 1 x 15 @ 145lbs; 1 x 15 @ 155lbs; 1 x 12 @ 165lbs

B2.  Weighted pull-ups 6 - 8 x 4; Rest 3 min.
4 x 8 @ 26lbs - weighted pull-ups have always been a weakness I wanted to stop at 6 on the last 2 but I   struggled through

C1.  Bent Over Barbell Rows 8 - 10 x 3; Rest 1 min
3 x 10 @ 145lbs - I haven't tone a tone of these so I went with a weight that was moderate and I knew that I could get quality reps

C2.  Ring Dips 12 - 15; Rest 1 min
3 x 15 -  last 3 to 5 on the 2nd and 3rd set got tough

P.M.

Prowler Sprints - 50m @ 100%; Rest 2:30 x 4; Rest 6 min x 2
0:15; 0:16; 0:17; 0:17     REST 6 MIN      0:15; 0:15; 0:17; 0:15
I did these sprints on the street behind the gym.  25m down a slight grade turn around and 25m back up.  I had to use a Rogue dog sled, the sled weighs 103lbs and I had a 55lb plate on it.  I wash't totally sure if this is what was recommended but it felt good to sprint with.  

5-25-13

A.M.

A.  Rear Foot Elevated DB Split Squat @ 3030, 6-8 x 4; Rest 1 min between legs - 4 sets per leg
8 per leg @ 53lbs  -  I used KBs and went a little lighter so that I could control my reps better.  It was still taxing at this weight.  On the way up I had to fight to keep my knee from wanting to come in.

B.  Squat Snatch - 3 EMOM for 12 min @ 60% of 1 RM; 135lbs
This felt good - light and fast.  I did singles on even min and TnG on odd.  I had no failed reps.

C.   TnG Dead Lifts; 3 EMOM for 10 min @ 315lbs
This got tough a little over half way through.  All were TnG but breathing was getting tough on the last half of the sets - I would hold it at the top to take a few breaths.  If this was a 12 to 15 min EMOM I don't know if I would have made it - or it wouldn't have been pretty.  My back started to round a bit on the 4th and 5th rep of the last 2 sets, but no pain after.

P.M.

30 min Airdyne @ Z1
I dont have an avg watt or total Cal for this, the AD screen shut off right at the end and I just watched the clock on the wall to finish.  This felt great I got to listen to a podcast and just zone out.

5-20-13

Sleep - Went to sleep at 1:00 and slept until 9:00am.  I slept great - this was the first day that I was completely off the schedule for all the morning classes.  Now that we are getting our coaches together my schedule will be much more conducive to training and enjoying time away from the gym.

 Nutrition - 
10:00 - greek yogurt, almonds and raisins
11:20 - chicken drum stick, greek yogurt, almonds and raisins, low fat frozen yogurt, protein
3:00 - greek yogurt, almond butter, protein
4:00 - chicken Brest, 2 cups mixed baked veggies
7:15 - chicken Brest
9:00 - 2 servings greek yogurt, almonds and raisins
10:00 - low fat frozen yogurt, protein

5 sets @ 60% - 70% - 80% - 90% - 100% ; rest 4 min between sets
intended to show how I perceive differences in intensity @ mixed work

10 Squat Cleans @ 135lbs
15 Burpee
400m Run

                                                60%        70%      80%       90%       100%
10 Squat cleans                     0:51          0:42        0:38        0:34         0:30
15 Burpee                             1:27          1:31        1:24        1:07         1:09
400m Run                             3:21          3:07        3:03        2:45         2:44

The cleans felt good through out the workout, started out with all singles and ended up with all TnG on the last set.  The burpee and run got harder each round.  I'm not sure if the last round was truly 100% because after 4 min rest I could have gone again.  I know that I have alot more to learn here.

Sleep - Went to bed at 10:30 and slept until 4:30am.  I had a good night sleep, woke up feeling rested.

3:07.2    damper set at 9.5
3:17.1    damper set at 8
3:20.4    damper set at 8

This was probably the worst feeling test yet.  I was wrecked for the first 12 min or so of each rest, and who knows how long after the last row.  I didn't pace and tried to go there.  I'm fairly happy with this test.

5-22-13

Sleep - I went to sleep at 10:00 and woke up at 3:45am.  I was pretty tired and slept like a log.  I woke up feeling pretty good but I could tell it was friday and that I needed more rest.  I was able to take a quick 30  min power nap at 7:30, that helped a lot.

A.M.
         21-15-9
         Dead Lifts @ 225lbs
         HSPU
3:57 - I felt pretty good on this workout.  All the DL were unbroken - not super fast but constantly moving.  The HSPU felt good kipped them all - lost my balance after the 12th rep on the set of 15, but all others were unbroken.  

P.M.
         21-15-9
         Power Cleans @ 135lbs
         Ring Dips
4:30 - I'm not that pleased with this time.  The PC felt good and steady - I only broke the set of 15 once after the 9th rep, 2 breaths and back on it.  However the ring dips got me.  I was having alot of trouble stringing them together.  I need to work on higher rep ring dips with heavy breathing.

5-18-13

20 min AMRAP
20 thrusters @ 135lbs
20 C2B pull-ups
20 burpee
3+20,  not pleased with this score.  I was wanting 4 rounds before I began.  I tried not to pace from the start and just go after it.  Thrusters felt okay started with a set of 10 - 5 - 5.  then smaller sets of 3 to 5 on the rest of the thrusters.  I ended up ripping both of my hands in this workout.  The right one after 10 C2B.  I typically don't rip my hands that often but it seems that I have a good bit in the last 2 weeks.  Anyways I spent the workout looking forward to the burpees.
