Warmup:-Greg Amundson's CrossFit Warmup
CrossFit Football Strength:
Deadlift 5RM:
-145x5
-195x3
-235x3
-285x2
-320x1
-355x5 (+3), then 50 Evil Wheels
Since this is my first week back following CFFB programming, I backed off my previous 5RM by 40 pounds, since the goal of this program is to add 10# per week to my deadlift 5RM. I hit 355x5, then went to failure to get in some extra reps, hence the (+3) for a total of 8 reps.
CrossFit Football Conditioning:
4 Rounds for Time of:
-10 DB Power Snatches (5right/5left) @ 100#
-30 Yard Sprint
7:12, not RX'd. I used a 70# kettlebell. There was absolutely no way 100# was getting over my head. However, I had never used more than a 53# kb in a workout before, so this was a huge juump for me, and I'm pretty happy about it.
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.
