Strongman Session
A.
Sand Bag Clean & Press

Build to today’s 1-RM.

B.
Two sets of:
100-Foot Hand-Over-Hand Rope Pulls
Rest 2-3 minutes

C.
Two sets of:
100-Foot Yoke Carry
Rest 3 minutes

Goal is to establish heaviest load you can shoulder and walk 100-feet.

D.
One set of:
Sandbag Carry x max distance
(as heavy as possible, shooting for 300 feet or more)

Finisher
One set of:
600-Foot Prowler Sprint
(no stops, no walking)

Running Session
A.
Take 15-20 Minutes to warm up properly

This should include at least 800 meters of jogging and 5-10 minutes of dynamic stretching to get your muscles primed to run.

B.
Four sets of:
Run 1200 Meters @ your 1600 meter PR pace
Rest 60 seconds
Run 400 Meters @ your 1600 meter PR pace
Rest 2 Minutes

Total Distance – 4800 meters

You’ll run your 1200 meters (3 laps) at your 1600 meter PR pace – let’s use 6 minute mile as an example – so that will be 4:30 for your 1200, then a 1 minute rest, then you will run 400M – you can go a little faster here, but not at the expense of your next interval. The goal is consistency – can you maintain your pace for all 4 sets. If not, then we can start to see where your pace starts to drop.

Report your times for each 1200 and 400 meter interval.

C.
Jog 800 Meters and spend at least 10 minutes working on passive stretching

Hey! SESSION 1 A.) 250lbs Focused on sitting far back, feet wider and shin vertical. These were alot tougher than I thought. Glutes were on fire. B.) 4 + 22 Not too familiar with using a 30lbs ball, those killed me. Need to use those more often. T2B was fine sets of 10. And the Hang Power Cleans always get me in a workout. I just feel really weak when doing the movement. C.) Completed Goodmorning are fine, but the ham curls im so weak at. D.) Completed First time doing these. Hip Flexors were so fatigued. SESSION 2 (Strongman)… Read more »

Haha the strongman session will be something you need to get used to with regard to movement and loading but once you crack it they are tough but real fun! Until you sort out sandbags best thing to do is pick up something heavy and bear hug it. 🙂

Keep up the good work!

Session 1:

Squats all at 230. Felt light but focused on form.

Metcon crushed me. Like I said before, TTB are a weak spot for me, plus conditioning isn’t primed at the moment. Did all WB in sets of 10. TTB 8-6-6. Cleans 5-5. Got 4 rounds + 50 reps.

Love/hate the banded March. Helps a lot but it doesn’t feel good. See ya Friday.

Don’t chase to many goals. It’s a long season. Theres no reason why you can’t add in some running but just be smart base on feel.
