Mobility WOD:
6x15 seconds (each arm) behind neck stretch with red band.
My focus on my mobility wod's right now is to help with my overhead flexibility for snatches, presses, etc. I did one set in between each set of my warmup.
Warmup:
Jerk Complex:
3 Press, 1 Push Press, 1 Split Jerk @ 95#
2 Press, 1 Push Press, 1 Split Jerk @ 130#
1 Press (PR), 1 Push Press, 1 Split Jerk @ 145#
1 Push Press, 1 Split Jerk @ 177#
1 Split Jerk @ 210# (2x fail)
The first SJ @ 210# my chest dipped too much on the dip, and the bar was too far out in front of me. On my second attempt, I drove the bar straight up and caught it in full lockout, but my landing was completely out of control and unstable. I was so focused on driving the bar up, that I didnt even think about body control on the landing.
SWOD:
3x5 Strict Press @ 125#
I only got 4, 4, and 3 reps. My previous PR for this SWOD was @ 122#. I will have to give this another shot before I reset. I could have been a little burnt out from the jerk complex too.
Metcon:
"Karen"
7:57 RX'd.
This was 49 seconds off my PR. I need to re-evaluate my training. A time this far off a PR is cause for some concern. I'm eating right, training right, and doing mobility. I need to do some serious work on sleep now I think. 6 hours a night is just not cutting it for me.
I'm 6 feet tall, 180lbs (maybe after Thanksgiving dinner), and I have trouble filling out the shoulders in a "smedium" t-shirt. But that doesn't mean I can't be strong. Don't be confused: this blog is not about how a hard gainer can pack on the pounds. It's unhealthy to put on useless weight, and quite frankly, I haven't figured out how to do it. This is quite simply a detailed account of how I train to be strong, even though I'm built like a 6th grader.
