PERFORMANCE

Warm-Up.

Elephant March x 20 (slow and controlled)

*Set up your barbell with weights. This will be your hand hold. Hinge at the hip and place your feet behind the bar far enough that your back is flat with your knees bent. You should look like a table. Extend one knee at a time WITHOUT raising your hips! As you are going through the 20 reps, focus on gripping the ground with your feet and feeling the internal rotation of the hip as you extend that side. Make sure to squeeze your quad at the top.

A. 340 for heavy 2; 315 for rounds
B. 16:20 Rx… this, for me is a disappointment – did not have a good day. Wanted to quit in round 1, but didn’t – so that’s the positive I’ll take from today.

B. DT- RX

Last time we did it, I finished in 11:54. I paced it much better this time, so I didn’t blow up in the middle.
Kept the DL slow 11/1, HPC – 4/4/1, STOH – UB. I can tell I have put in a lot of Jerk work over the last couple of months. It was still really heavy, but felt doable and didn’t crush me.

Happy!

Was actually going pretty well until the last round where it fell apart… Read more »
