———————————————
PROGRAM NOTE – Today, tomorrow and Monday will be much lighter volume. We anticipate that the Regionals workouts will begin to be announced as early as Monday, and we’ve driven you hard for the last four weeks. The dip in volume is designed to have you feeling strong, healthy and confident as the Regionals workouts are announced and we begin testing those events.

SCHEDULING NOTE – Monday will be a swim session – nothing else. Plan to train hard on Tuesday and Wednesday, recover on Thursday, and then train hard Friday, Saturday and Sunday. We will keep that schedule through your Regionals weekend.

A. Built to 160! PR! Almost had 165, definitely OH but lock out wasn’t quite there.
B. 8:09 – I didn’t adjust any rings before hand and due to class was stuck on rings waaaay to high for me. Oh well, def something to practice having not perfect rings.

A) worked up to 160. Failed 165 behind me. I know I can do more.
B) 7:28. The hspu took me 3 minutes by themselves! Is there a tip or secret I missed that has got all you girls KILLING these shspu?!?! Are you guys practicing with the new standard? (The heels above the tape) Or just the box like last year?
Optional:
1 rd- 13:31. Row was 10:13 and took my time starting hsw due to class.

Session I: A. snatches are by FAR my weakest lift (current PR is 143#), so instead of only doing 2-3 rounds i decided to start the ladder at a lower weight so i could get more reps in. to my complete surprise, i was able to hang snatch 150#! i got 155# up overhead but couldnt stabilize and dropped the weight behind me. i know i have it in me to make that lift! ended up going 105-115-120-125-130-135-140-145-150-155(f). B. 6:13 RX. SHSPU went 20/8/2 (fell off the wall, so mad!) and took ~1:18. burpee MU done at relative good pace… Read more »

Been taking it easy and doing what I could do to rest my back the last few days (massage, hot tub, stim, etc).. Woke up feeling good today.. Did a lot of SHSPU, light weight lunges, and Airdyne the last couple days, all stuff that didn’t bother it.. Session 1 today: A. Warmed up with about 15-20 reps at 95-135#.. it all felt solid and didn’t aggravate my back at all so I went into the programmed work and it continued to feel good.. Up to hit 225 solid (ties hang PR), then failed at 235.. Tried it again after… Read more »

Just curious how you guys warm up for these strength ladders. Do you just build to the starting weight (i.e, 185/125) and start the clock then or are you guys warming up the heavier loads later on in the set as well?

Morning Session:
Optional A) Hey that was fun! Rounds took somewhere around 14:00 or less with rows at about 11:00 (not sure if that was the right pace or not) and a stop to put my knee sleeves on for pistols. UB HS walks until the 4th one I tumbled 2 ft away from the finish. OH weighted pistols felt super easy and fast today! Last time they hurt my hip flexors but I’m guessing the row got them good and warm.

A. up to 150# and a very close miss at 155# – With my 1RM being 155#, I’m happy with this
B. 14:11 – 30 sHSPU took 6:50 but I’ve never done that many sHSPU in a day or in that time frame, etc. etc. a huge improvement for me! 🙂
