It’s been a great week! Kicked it off with a big Squat PR @ 320# so that’s always good. This morning wasn’t so awesome, but I put in the work:
Front Squat 1 RM
PR is 260# and I just barely got 255# this morning. Not letting that bother me though, I’m feeling great otherwise and you can’t PR everyday I don’t suppose!
Then…
AMRAP 6 Minutes
- 5 Power Clean and Jerks @ 60% of 1RM (Today that was 115#)
- 10 GHD Situps
Rest 12 Minutes
AMRAP 6 Minutes
- 5 Power Clean and Jerks @ 60% of 1RM (Today that was 115#)
- 10 Toes to Bar
I got 5 rounds and 2 Power Cleans on the first AMRAP. On the second one my arms were dog tired. Helen yesterday didn’t help. Since I was a day behind I didn’t get to rest yesterday. Anyway, I got 4 rounds and 2 Power Cleans on the second AMRAP.
I’m not sure what this weekend will bring. Maybe an easy 5K or something. We’ll see, I feel like I need one more really good workout before race week begins. Anyway…
New Barbell Shrugged came out this week, and it is VERY interesting. I listened to it straight through. I’ve been listening to these guys talk about this stuff for 3 years now, and I still can’t get enough of it. Check it out:
Have a great weekend. Let me know how your training is going and what you’re training for. Would love to hear from you.
