Power Clean x 1 rep

B.
For time:
60/40 Calorie Assault Bike*
50 Box Jump-Overs (24″/20″)
40 Toes-to-Bar
30 Deadlifts (225/155 lbs)
20 Muscle-Ups

40 Toes-to-Bar

Running Endurance Option

online pharmacy buy keflex without prescription with best prices today in the USA

Three sets of:
1200 Meter Run
400 Meter jog (recovery)

Strongman Training Option
A.
Two sets, for max weight, of:
75-Foot Yoke Carry

Place your hands on the sides of the yoke so that you can press the yoke forward like a bench press, creating pec engagement (and internal torque). Place the yoke as far back on your back as possible (back…not low) so that the weight stays centered over your hips. Take short, quick steps keeping your hips square and legs slightly bent. This is the best structural exercise for the barbell squat, and one of the best exercises overall. It strengthens the thoracic structure (lats, pecs, etc…), the erectors (isometrically, in accordance with their primary function) and obliques.

B.
Two sets each arm for max weight of:
75-Foot Single-Arm Reverse Sled Drags
Rest 2-3 minutes

C.
Two sets for max weight of:
60-Foot Hand-Over-Hand Rope Pull
Rest 2-3 minutes

The rope pull is one of the best exercises to get strong lats and healthy shoulders. Your focus should be to move your hands as fast as possible, and keep your chest horizontal to ensure that your lats stay engaged throughout. This is a short distance, so these should be heavy!

D.
Two sets for max weight of:
60-Foot Seated Rope Pulls

Brace your feet against something sturdy (a tire, yoke, heavy sandbag, etc…), and reach with your arms as far as possible and pull on the rope while driving with your legs – try to use your legs as much as possible as if you were trying to push something away with your legs. By the time you’re done, if you’ve gone heavy enough, your forearms and core will feel it.

E.
Two sets for max weight of:
150-Foot Sandbag Carry
Rest 2-3 minutes

A good goal for this distance would be to handle a bag that is 50% of your 1-RM Deadlift.

26:30, ran 800m instead of assault bike because the chain broke off and I haven’t fixed it yet 🙁 this was the only thing I did today because I helped judge a competition all day today at the gym but I’m glad I was able to get something in for the day. I now have a new respect for judges and volunteers haha

A: wow. Only 280. Had nothing in me today with the weights.
B. 26:26 was cruising through this until the second sets of deads and my heart rate sky rocketed quick. Second set of 60 cal ab was around 20 seconds slower.

Gonna do the running and sled pulls a little later after some food and a nap.

Finals are over = no more school = much more focused training… finallyyyy

Session 1
A. Got to 245 and shoulder hurt to catch it so moved on
B. Did strict CTB instead of MUs since they hurt shoulder in the transition and dip. Strict CTB probably took longer anyway. Everything else rx. 25:07

Awesome Saturday. A. Power clean heavy 315. Stopped as form started to loosen up. But still a 5# PR. Pumped. B. Rowed 60 calories on the WOD. 25:55 Everything else as prescribed. Toes to bar felt much improved, able to larger sets. Strongman Sesh. Didn’t do Yoke. All the rest completed, but with a 50 Ft rope, cuz that’s what I gots. Went heavy on all movements. I drag on my rubber matting, so weight probably doesn’t tell a whole lot. Lighter Sandbag ~ 110# unbroken over 400m. Lot of fun today, been stringing together a nice few weeks. Thank… Read more »
