February 25, 2020 – Competition

A.
Every minute, on the minute, for 12 minutes:
Minute 1: 10 Box Jumps (30″”/24″”, Jump Up and Step Down)
Minute 2: 4 Kettlebell Deadlifts + 4 Kettlebell Hang Clean to Overhead + 8 Alternating Front Racked Kettlebell Reverse Lunges (16-24/12-16 kg KBs)
Minute 3: 30 second Assault Bike @ 80-85% Effort

Breathe exclusively through your nose throughout this entire portion. If you find that your mouth drops open, you’re going too hard. Slow your pace and resume breathing only through your nose.

B.
Every minute, on the minute, for 5 minutes:
Front Squat
*Set 1 – 2 reps @ 60%
*Set 2 – 2 reps @ 65%
*Set 3 – 2 reps @ 70%
*Set 4 – 1 rep @ 75%
*Set 5 – 1 rep @ 80%

Rest one minute, and then…

Every 2 minutes, for 10 minutes (5 sets):
Front Squat
*Set 6 – 85% x 1 rep
*Set 7 – 85-90% x 1 rep
*Set 8 – 90+% x 1 rep
*Set 9 – 90+% x 1 rep
*Set 10 – 90+% x 1 rep

For sets 6-10, let feel dictate loading. The goal is to establish today’s “heavy” lift. “Heavy” for the day is the load immediately before that at which you would lose proper mechanics and positioning. If you determine that you’ve reached that load for the day prior to set 10, stop there. You’ll have lots of opportunities over the upcoming weeks to hit new 1-RMs if and when your body is feeling good, so don’t push when your body isn’t responding to the stimulus.

C.
Six sets of:
Halting Clean Deadlift + Clean Pull + 2 Power Cleans @ 70-85% of 1-RM Clean
Rest as needed

Build over the course of the six sets from the low to the high end of the prescribed range. Stay focused on maintaining good and consistent mechanics on the first and second pulls in each movement.

D.
Every 90 seconds, for 9 minutes (6 sets):
Split Jerk x 1 rep @ 80-90%

Goal is to groove perfect footwork and mechanics with a relatively high percentage of your 1-RM in these sets. Do not progress the load if your mechanics falter.

E.
In 15 minutes or less, build to today’s “heavy”…
Back Squat x 1 rep

Followed by…

Every 2 minutes, for 6 minutes (3 sets):
Back Squat x 3 reps @ 75-80% of today’s heavy single

F.
For time:
10 Lateral Burpee Over Dumbbell
20 Dumbbell Thrusters (50/35 lbs)
10 Lateral Burpee Over Dumbbell
18 Dumbbell Thrusters
10 Lateral Burpee Over Dumbbell
16 Dumbbell Thrusters
and so on, down to…
10 Lateral Burpee Over Dumbbell
2 Dumbbell Thrusters

*perform thrusters using two dumbbells

Didn’t post yet but I did all of this one and it was amazing. I was at the lower end of percentages because I want to continue to focus on technique and form until I can maintain more consistency with the OLY lifts. The burpee / thruster bit was insaaaane!

A bit off today on B-D. Not as hydrated as I would like to be and temp is at 30’C; much higher than usual. Need to drink more water and suck it up in the heat.

A. Done, 25lbs each arm, AB is hard @80% nose breathing
B. Up to RM @165 felt solid, if I had partial plates I would’ve gone up, but meet to feel confident to go up 10lbs.
C. Up to 125lbs, 2nd power clean feels ugly, can’t seem to catch the timing to do touch and go, should I stick with it or drop Barbell, reset and go?
D/E. had to skip for time 🙁
F. Kill me, regretted yesterday jump overs. 19:33 with 20lbs each (it’s my competition standard).

Barbell cycling is not weightlifting and weightlifting is not barbell cycling. Work perfect mechanics in strength portions so there’s no need to touch and go these. Where there’s a natural break drop and reset.

Look after those calves!
