I did this workout on 1/15 A) Jerk Balance x 3 (63-73-73-83) then Jerk Dip + Jerk (2sec.hold) 93-103-108-113m-113m-113m ARGHHHHHH! B) 120-140-155-165-155 (3) Ring rows went 8-8-6/2-5/3-4/4 * I fell off the 2 min. interval on the 4th set. C) @85# 2 Rds.+ 4 * Failed 4th O.H.S. on the third round and had to reset…slowing down just a little would have gotten me the rep and back to the pull-up bar. Second time with 85# for OHS in workout…felt a lot more confident this time, was good! THEN 1:53-1:50-1:49-1:48 All WB’s unbroken…14# to the 9′ target Felt good :… Read more »

A – 185-215. Attempted to increase load from last week but alas was unsuccessful. Boo. That said, this is right about at my 1RM. Recoveries at 235. The recoveries are showing me that I’m not getting far enough underneath the bar and pushing hard enough with my shoulders in my jerks. B – Good news, bad news. Last week I could only get to 245 before groin started b!tching. This week we got to 280 (about 85%). But still a little below where I could be. Ended up doing 215-245-280-280-280(2). Just staying cautious. C – OHS/C2B – 4 rounds. Then… Read more »

A:

Jerk balance 50-60-70-80kg

Jerk dip + jerk (with pause) 90-100-110-115-120-125kg

No jerk recovery due to limited equipment

B: 90-100-120-130-120kg with 8 ring rows

C:

Snatch/C2B 4+2 at 70kg

Row/WB 1:39 – 1:42 – 1:45 – 1:50

What a coincidence that 30lb wall balls were programmed the day we get 30lb wall balls at the box…

M&A done
A. Tall jerks then worked up to 225, no blocks so I did 5×5 strict press@80%(145)
B. 230,265,301,320,300
C. 2 rds+4 reps-only pull-up bar is about 16″ off the wall and 10″ lower than I would like it so all my c2b are strict…….and awkward. Ohs went great
C2. 1:50,1:48,1:53,1:49-no med ball so I did thrusters with 20#db

A. Jerk balances up to 55kg, jerks up to 91kg(these were not going very well today), no jerk recoveries
B. 225, 255, 285, 305, 6×285( previous 5rm was 285 so feel my quad strain is definitely healed up…compex and accupuncture definitely helped a lot)
C. 2 rounds+3 @135 (dropped bar on 3rd round and just waited till next part) 20# WB all unbroken around 2-2:05 each set (definitely getting better at wall balls, at 5’4 they never really go as planned but today was glad to hit all UB)
