Push Jerk - for weight. Kind of a contest at the affiliate. Most weight wins.

Sets Reps Weight
1 10 130
2 5 150
3 5 170
4 3 190 miss
5 3 190
6 2 200 miss
7 1 200 miss

Very frustrating...I feel like the technique goes completely away once the weight goes up. I have no jerk. Max weight is almost a push press.

I wasn't keeping track of my running but I figure what the heck...since I'm tracking everything.

I usually go pretty easy...either light for 40 mins or 5 K in about 35 depending on my mood. My goal isn't to "increase my running time" but more just to have active rest days...

Run

40 Mins

My house to 921 Lakeshore and back.

Wasn't planning on working out today...needed to recover from a long NASCAR weekend but...Nobody showed up to the class so Matt (Affiliate) and I did the workout together...I saw the instructors do this in VA Beach...looked 'fun'!

I scaled it down to 95# from 135"

Try it if you ever get bored...

5 Rounds for time 95#

15 Deadlift
12 Hang clean
9 Front Squat
6 Push Jerk

My house to the corner of Lakeshore and Moorville or Moorview or something back to Alice and Doremus

Was super tired felt a few cramps and my legs were tight from yesterday.
