Snatch
95lbs x1x1x1 115lbs x1x1x1 125lbs x1x1x1 135lbs x1x1x1x1xfx1x1xfx1x1x1 form work, the 135 was good but my form on the first 3 was ok but unstable at the bottom a bit and I was going for good form so I stayed here and worked form. I had it in me for more weight but it would have been questionable form. |

10:00 break
Daily squat bar x3 135lbs x1 235lbs x1 285lbs x1 320lbs x1 350lbs(158.7k) x1 Great lift. Funny the 275 was hard but I focused on driving my knees out from the top as soon as my hips broke and the rest was good. The 350 was real solid. THANKS SCOTT for the push. |
Re: Nik
Rough day, Honestly I had no energy for a metcon.

Re: Nik
10:00 break
Daily squat Bar x3 135lbs x1 235lbs x1 285lbs x1 320lbs x1 350lbs xf x1 Tough today. On lower weights i was forward on my toes. On the 285 and up i was back on my heels. Last rep miss was to much focus on staying back ans knees out,that once i was down i was no focused on going up. Asecond rep was a slow fight but i got it. Off to the docs in a few hours. |

What about knocking the sets down and upping the reps on your daily squat. Been doing 1rm for a long time now apart from the break.

I may do that, Though I got 158.7 for two reps today!! Plus Mondays are my 5/3/1 work on squats, so it is not all singles just alot. |
Re: Nik

Daily squat bar x3 135lbs x1 235lbs x1 285lbs x1 320lbs x1 350lbs(158.7k) x2 first reps at 350 was real solid, second was rough and a slow grind, form was good, but it was tough. Stoked. |
Re: Nik
ring dips
6 sets of 6-8 reps Use the lightest band or heaviest weight possible If you don't yet have 10 perfect press-ups, use a band hung round the pull-up bar to support the hips instead. seated muscle up to ring dips, one muscle up 8 dips 6 sets done and easy. KB snatch 7:00min time limit 80 KB Snatch (24/20kg)- alternate arms as needed Max reps of: 10m Sprint + 3 burpees SCALED I used a 35lbs dumb bell (no KBs here or I'd have RXd it.) 80 DB snatches straight through 12 rounds even on the sprint burpee pard in the time remaining. Straight through on the DB snatched did it in sets of 5 and switched in the air. run burpee straight through, could have run faster. |

Re: Nik
Ok, I have been sick for the last few days and have not done anything, I did a light warm up and was feeling pretty bad from that so I will not workout today to help recover. I will post more about it later. I am at work and busy.

Re: Nik
Good to see you back Nik, hope your feeling better when you awake today.

Re: Nik
I think I am on the mend, I ended up staying home yesterday. I am weak and am just today able to eat, feeling better but like I said, weak. So I will take ANOTHER rest day and just recover.
If I was to try to do anything it would end up a wreck. So rest it is. |

Re: Nik
A.M. warm up
20 HSPUs 20 abmat situps 20 kipping pullups 20 GHDs 20 back ext 20 squats 20 pushups rolled my back 2:00min rolled piriformis 2:00min a side rolled hip flexers 2:00min a side calf stretch 2:00min a side HSPUs were great, though the last 5 reps were TOUGH!! I got a wobble at rep 16 or so and almost fell off the wall, and rep 20 was all out effort. I got a little shakey after my warm up but I think I am ok. Also I am 12 lbs light after all my sickness. So I will be trying to build that back up and I will be watching my lifts too and making sure form is right and I push to the weight I can do RIGHT but still push hard. |
