July 2, 2019 – Performance

Warm-Up.
Wall Slides x 10 reps @ 2020
Y’s, T’s & W’s x 5 reps each

Followed by…

Three Rounds:
Row x 60 seconds
Pec Activation x 60 seconds

Then…

A.
Five sets of:
Push Press x 6 reps @ 11X2
Rest 2 minutes

Note the tempo – you must pause for one-second in the front-rack position between every lift, then pause two full seconds with the load overhead before re-racking the weight. Use the same loads used on June 24, but aim to achieve at least 6 reps on each set. If you missed this session on June 24, use the first two sets to build to a relatively heavy load, and perform the final three sets at a load that you can complete 5 reps, but the 6th rep will be extremely challenging to make.

B.
For time:
800 Meter Run
80 Push Presses (95/65 lbs)
800 Meter Run

A. All at tempo: 135, 135, 155, 155, 155×4

B. Rx 11:45.
Runs were both right around 3:20. The presses got rough. I don’t think my accessory bench work was the best choice yesterday! I wrongly assumed we wouldn’t do push presses after the thrusters 🙂
