A.
Four sets of:
Back Squat x 6 reps
Rest 3 minutes
Choose the same weights you used on January 23. If you missed that squat session, select a weight that will make your final 2-3 reps of your final set extremely difficult.
B.
For time:
30/20 Calories of Assault Bike
30 Front Squats (155/105 lbs)
30 Alternating Front-Racked Reverse Lunges (155/105 lbs)
A. Bryan – 165# x 4 reps all sets.
B. Bryan (25 Burpees vs. bike, 135#) – 12:32.
Did 1 day later:
A. 225 all sets
B. 10:45, scales to 135lb loaded bar
A) 275 for all sets. That was hard
B) 9:35 @ 135. I’m going to be so sore tomorrow. Rowed 30 cals, no bike that counts cals
A day behind
A. 85, 105, 115, 125, 125, 130, 135, 135, 140, 145 (f) got in my head and was all done.
B. 21:16 – hit all but 8 CTB. I probably should have scaled the GTO but wanted to push myself with the weight. Had to take a breather after 3 reps and then get back to it.
Did yesterday’s: A. Did liftoff+power snatch instead. Worked up to 160# over 8 sets. I stopped after that. It’s the heaviest I’ve gone on snatch since my ankle surgery in May. My whole left leg felt great! B. 20:25. I accidentally loaded my bar with 165# instead of 155#, I noticed in the first round luckily! Haha, so I dropped it back to 155#. I was able to string two sets of 6 C2B in one of the rounds, so I was happy about that! I’m trying to be on here more regularly now! I’ve been traveling all over the… Read more »
Great job on the snatches! Glad your ankle felt good during it. Keep posting!
Thanks! Will do!
A: 225, 245, 245, 255
I need to do some movement correction on my back squats. I keep hitting a hitch about halfway through the push where my rear pushes out and up, and I have to fight to keep my chest up.
B: Rx’ed 12:09
Did 6/4/6/6/4/4 on FS
Did 10/10/10 on SS
C: Sled pushes and pulls with 180# added, 4 supersets 20 yards
Strength session this morning
Tonight I wanted to get some conditionning done, felt like it had been awhile since I did a « longer » session and since I ran so I decided to
Run 5km : 23:30 (on treadmill)
Definitely a lifetime PR!! Glad I pushed through the cramps… it was tough but it’s always worth it!
Have a great weekend everyone
Great work out of you too bro!

A. 225/235/245/255. Same as 1/23
B. Rx’d 11:49. Trying to figure out how to rack up quick cals on the AB. Definitely went out too hot. Off the bike at 1:20 and I was hyper ventilating. Did 5’s on FS and 6’s on lunges. Had to take longer breaks in the beginning to get my breathing under control. Good knowledge for the future.

12 barbell rollouts

A. Backsquats Rx (all x6) – 275/285/305/315
B. 9:53 Rx. I took wayyy to long to start the lunges after the frontsquats (I was mad at myself). Also, it took me longer to finish the lunges. I had to deviate from reps plan when the bar slipped out of hands after only 5 reps, on my first round ???
Usually I choose between the Thursday of Friday workout, whichever rounds out the week the best. This time I didn’t want to miss out on any of the movements so I created some kind of a monster, haha. A1. Backsquat 4×6. Up to 130kg/285lbs A2. Every 2min for 20min (10sets) 2 clean lift off + power clean. Up to 100kg/225lbs B. 5 rounds for time: 30 Cal AB, 6 Ground to Overhead at 155, 12 C2B Pullups. 21:30 Accessory work.

I’m surprised you didn’t die earlier!
Good Lord! I would have been dead after B. Good work!
Long time follower, first time poster. I’ll try to be consistent in future postings. If anyone needs a quick workout close to DIA, let me know.
A) 185, 225, 245, 275
B) 9:23 Rx (1:47 after bike, 5:30 after F.S.)

Welcome aboard – great work.
welcome!
Hi Wes! Welcome to the club!
Welcome!
You killed it today. Awesome work!
… overnight power failure so unintentionally caught up on some rest …
A. Backsquat (As Rx): 6 x 275, 285, 295, 305 (315 next time?)
B. DNS
… I’d like to say B looks “fun” and that “I’ll look to make it up” – but I’d be lying … have a good weekend folks … that was a big training week.
Are you still using a plug into the wall alarm clock? Times must be tough in Canada. On another unrelated note, I also unintentionally slept in because my iPhone updated overnight 😉
This whole “electricity” thing is pretty new … we’re still trying to figure it out ?
????
Come on guys…everyone knows that u set ur phone alarm and a wall clock! At least that’s what ya do when ur getting up between 12:30-1 am!
I hit the snooze button twice this morning without really realizing it. Then my 2 1/2 year old daughter came in our bedroom… for once I was happy to go put her back to bed!! Thanks to her I made it to the gym lol
Snooze….really?? I’ve never used the snooze…
Figure of speech lol… i use my phone’s alarm and by snooze I meant whatever button stopped the ringing
Dooode this happened to me Monday and it was great. Except for the fact that I dropped off my son late to school. ?♂️
After doing B and going 5 straight I concur with your DNS on B. I can tell it is going to haunt me for a few days…
A) 1000 mts run. Time: 5’31” This is 15″ off my PR but after the heavy work this week, I’ll take it. I was consistent in the pace, never going balls to the wall but never crawling. B) OT2M x 6: 1.1.1 strict pull ups. Rx called for 5-15 every 2 minutes, I would have been able to do 5 maybe on the first set and then crash so I decided to scale this to cluster work and only 3 reps per set. I need to do more strict work. C) AMRAP 12′: – 6 pull ups – 12 american… Read more »
The dreaded front rack lunges!
A.) dropped weight and worked on extreme tempo/ form today. 135 lbs at 52X0
