Pm session
Event 4: 7:44, I feel I could have gone faster. DL: unbroken first set , 6/4. HSPU:12/8, 11/4/3/1 (my hand slipped on rep 19 on the plates cause I had taped it due to earlier rip lol). Wasted time putting belt on and off between lifts and hspu. And also didn’t push it on the last set of squats as much.
Accessory:
Did 3 sets of 4 strict unbroken MU and 8 singles SHSPU 3″”deficit.

Leg lifts done. Fun day.

Age Group Qualifier Thoughts: Event 3: 4:15 Open the palms on the S2O to save grip. Take breaths at the top. C2B grip got hard. Faster cycling made it easier to save since less time under tension. Event 4: 8:51 UB on DL and FS, but, my first set ended with my arms in front of me crossed. I thought if I relaxed the grip it would be easier, but went full grip on FS on 2nd round and was better able to maintain poster and hold on. Definitely try to not relax at the bottom of HSPU. Kipping with… Read more »

Event 3 all UB 2:58 could easily be sub 2:30 if I didn’t have to pause for wheezing lol this workout is simple, there’s no reason to stop E. Event 4 body wasn’t feeling DLs today. 6+4 both sets. 7+7+6 on HSPU each set. 10s on first set of FS 15s on second set. 10:49 bad time, both weaknesses in this workout so didn’t push it on FS like I should F.

A. 275/315/350/365/375/375. All sets pretty easy. B. Failed 180. Swear fought this weight for like 3 seconds at shoulder height while bringing it up. C. Only could work up to 210 bc I dropped in at a gym in New Jersey and they told me the wrong open gym time via email and I at least wanted to get in some conditioning Conditioning I didn’t do what was prescribed and I apologize for that. I did: 5 total sets 20 cal assault bike 20 GHD sit ups Rest 60 seconds. Ab 20 cals were done in 1:05/1:06/1:10/1:12/1:13. Happy about those… Read more »

7:45

After a shitty morning session. I decided to attack this workout with an “open” mindset.
For deadlfits and HSPU being a big weakness. I’m more than happy about this time. A little revenge on 17.4 too
