March 30, 2018 – Invictus Athlete

Primary Training Session

A.
Every 2 minutes, for 24 minutes (12 sets):
Clean
*Sets 1-3 = 3 reps @ 60%
*Sets 4-6 = 2 reps @ 70%
*Sets 7-9 = 1 rep @ 80%
*Sets 10-12 = 1 rep @ 90%

B.
Every minute, on the minute, for 21 minutes (7 sets of each):
Minute 1 – 10 Burpee Box Jump-Overs (24″/20″)
Minute 2 – 30 Double Unders + 6/4 Muscle-Ups
Minute 3 – 20/15 Calorie Row

C.
Four sets of:

Supinated-Grip Bent Over Barbell Rows x 8-10 reps @ 2011
Rest as needed

D.

Go heavy, and take your time. WALK, do not run. The point is to accumulate time under tension and strengthen your posterior chain, so embrace the slow grind of the walk and don’t get in a hurry.

Optional Additional Work Sessions
*Please choose to perform only those sessions that are most focused on your weaknesses, and only perform as much of the additional work as you can recover from successfully before your next training session.

Strongman Accessory Work

A.
Two sets, for max weight, of:

If you make the entire distance without dropping on the second set, stand stationary at the end holding the handles until you can no longer hold the load.

A:
1-3: 185lbs
4-6: 210lbs
7-9: 240lbs

All good and fine. No misses.

Missed every single one at 90%. I have zero confidence in my strength at the moment. I know that’ll change once we start the cycle. I dropped to 85% and did two singles. They felt hard.

Hold up…if your shoulder is messed up why would you do muscle-ups? You’ll just be compensating creating bad movement patterns and prolonging recovery. Rest and get it checked out. You’re not getting any better pushing through pain or discomfort.
