2.10.15 - 2.15.15

Week 5 – 2/10/15

Tuesday
A.  Every 2:30, (6 sets):
Front Squat x 1 rep– build to a tough 1 rep
*Before you start Perform a few sets of 6-8 with moderate band tension, no bar weight
 175, 185, 195, 205, 215, failed at 225; My PR is 220 and I got 215 pretty confidently with no bend in my back, I think I just held the bar too high on my neck at 225 and felt like I was going to faint so I dropped it.
B.  EMOM, for 12 minutes:
Clean & Jerk
Loads per minute by %: 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 80-85, 85, 85-90, 90, 90+
 100, 110, 120, 125, 135, 145, 155, 160, 165, 175, 175, 190, (rested 2-3 minutes), 200 – new PR! The clean stood up much easier than the one other time that I’ve cleaned 200, and it’s been a long time since I’ve been able to get this again so I’m happy. The jerk was not a problem. I just barely missed the clean at 205, technique was solid, just legs couldn’t finish standing it up.
C.  For time:
5 Ground to Overhead (205/135 lbs)
10 Ground to Overhead (185/125 lbs)
15 Ground to Overhead (155/105 lbs)
20 Ground to Overhead (115/75 lbs)
*Use one barbell and work on quickly changing out the plates to get the right weight combinations…this has become a tested skill in both the Open and Regionals in the past few years.
6:24 
D.  For time:
Row 500 Meters
20 Overhead Walking Lunges (135/95 lbs)
40 Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups
20 Overhead Walking Lunges (135/95 lbs)
80 Double-Unders
 7:44 – I did the row in 2:08 so I could do all the lunges unbroken, C2B broken up into 10/10/7/7/6
E. Single Leg Reverse Hyper; 10 reps/leg x 4 sets, rest as needed
 140 for all sets

Wednesday
A. Every two minutes, for 20 minutes (10 sets):
Snatch x 1 rep
Loads by % for each set: 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 95+, 95+
 95, 100, 110, 115, 125, 135, 140, 150, 160 (failed barely), 165 – ties all time PR, felt easy, then I failed 2 times at 170 (I need to be more mentally prepared to get this weight next time, I was so happy with 165 that I wasn’t ready for it)
2 Sets:

Sunday
*Warm-up as if you are approaching an Open event and you MUST perform at your absolute peak. It is important to understand what your routine will be – how you will get your body and mind prepared to give your full effort.

A.M.

Complete as many rounds and repetitions as possible in 14 minutes of:
60 Calorie Row
50 Toes to Bar
40 Wall Ball Shots (20 lbs to 10-foot target/14 lbs to 9-foot target)

20 Muscle-Ups
199 reps (1 muscle up short from finishing 1 round!); I should have gotten a full round! 

+

P.M.
A. Every minute, on the minute, for 12 minutes:
Minute 1 – Weighted GHD Hip Extension w/BB on back x 8 reps @ 2012
27#
Minute 2 – L-Seated Legless Rope Climb x 1 ascent
Complete, kind of sloppy L-sit
Minute 3 – GHD Sit-Ups x 15 reps
Complete

B. For 24 minutes at Moderate Intensity:
Heavy Sled Push or drag (30-45 second effort)
Run 400 Meters
Heavy Sled Pull (30-45 second effort)
30 Push-Ups
10 pushups shy of 4 rounds – this felt good and got me breathing and blood flowing, I liked it. I used the butcher sled plus 90# for the drag and went down and back across the gym. I used 80# on the dogsled for the sled pull and did it two times, down and back, since once only took 25 sec or so. The sled pulls are starting to feel stronger so I think I can start adding more weight next time.


Overall I am feeling pretty good. My forearms have been really tight lately but everything else feels pretty great!
