3/10

Part 1

EMOM x 8 alternating sets

Odd sets – 5 power cleans @ 185-205lbs

Even sets – 5 wall walks

Wall walks were great until rep 20 and that was the mark i noticed the fight for that rep was very real. So the last round, i tried to attack it but was very fatigued. I went with 185 on the barbell as well. 

+

EMOM x 8 alternating sets

Odd sets – 15 row cals

Even sets – 15 bike erg cals

Had to go 13 echo cals for the second piece

Part 2

Age group camp workout (with filming and split recording!)

AMRAP 14 min

14 1-arm alternating DB snatches @ 50lbs

14 toes to bar

14 single DB box step overs @ 50lbs to 20in

42 DU’

I had an absolute plan to make sure that I crush my redo, as a little joke but my dubz started off with the worst possible way. 5 full rounds + 14 db snatch – the only proble was 13 of those came after time ran out, as I had my head phones on and zoned out. And with that I did’t have the sense of urgency I should’ve had the last minute through transitions. I knew it was only 14 minutes, but i’m not sure what kind of back of the napkin math my brain did when i looked at the clock at the 12:30 mark. Had an absolute terrible start with DU, not sure what was happening but it was absolutely shitty.

Haven’t updated my transition times on spreadsheet yet but I will get to that

Monday 3/3/2025 – Wednesday 3/5/2025

3/3

A – Clean pull x 1/Hang squat clean x 1/Shoulder to overhead x 1 – new complex every 2 min x 6 

*80-85% EFFORT for the day

205 x 3 – 225 x 3 – neck felt great and 225 actually felt better than the 205 – very happy with how this felt

B1 – Dbl DB bench press x 8-10 @ 55-60lbs/hand, rest 1 min

60’s for 10

B2 – Rope climbs x 3 reps for smooth speed, rest 2 min x 3 sets

With no 15ft access i opted to do 3 sets of 3/rope pull up + 3 rope pull up + 2 – each one of those I went up the rope, i didn’t come down and reset and that was pretty freaking hard. 

+

For time, working 60 sec on and 60 sec off until all work is completed

20 power snatches @ 115lbs

25 toes to bar

20 PC/PJ @ 115lbs

25 toes to bar

20 front squats @ 115lbs

10:07 – this is including rest – my goal was to push the pace on the TTB, big sets and small rests….first one I got 7 reps in before the rest and then went for 18 UB and the second set – i remember the rep scheme but don’t remember within the minute interval – but i did 15/5/5 and i think the last 5 were in the next minute – the 20 front squats, i knew i wasn’t going to get all 20- in the remaining time, i still pushed but didn’t set out

The wind was BRUTAL……did this on the football field again so did 110 yards which is just over 100m…avg times were 24-26 seconds, running into the brutal head winds, i tried not to over fight for that same pace.

Snatch Overhead primer

A1 – Banded ATYT with CO sym bands x 6

A2 – Banded snow angels with CO sym bands x 8

B2 – Squat snatch x 3 reps @ 155lbs, rest 30 sec

B3 – Squat snatch x 1 rep @ 185lbs, rest 3 min x 3 sets

I had 6 attempts at 185 to get the 3 reps, overhead position felt like it was a little off and not stable. The pull felt great on most except one, it just felt like i was outside of my margin of error in my overhead position. I have been trying to really improve my thoracic rotation so not sure if this is throwing off that overhead position or if my bar path is just really off. I also had a lot on my mind today that occasionally got in my head and lost a little focus.

+

EMOM x 16 (4 times through)

1. 6 Power Snatch @ 95lbs + 9 chest to bar

2. 9 chest to bar / 6 Thrusters @ 95lbs

3. 15 cal Echo

4. Walking rest

This is the exact gut punch i needed today, one i stopped thinking, also it was really freaking hard. I was very excited about how my CTB felt, i feel we haven’t got a ton of volume there the past cycle or two and i felt my rhythm was pretty good, i only dropped to 7 on the last round of the power snatch CTB combo as I completely lost my rhythm and didn’t want to go to singles just to complete the 9 outside of that hit all numbers

Build to 2RM front squat from rack

*adjusting this to remove too much tension from neck

Coming back off our car trip and birthday celebration this was done much later in the day then I would’ve liked to so I didn’t go for 100% effort, I wanted to get some volume in and the movements so I just went up to 15 for the ohs and 5 for the rmu and went at an intentional effort but more for quality. And hit 265 on my front squat, wasn’t much more in the tank today but i’ll take that for the day. Right now I do not feel strong overhead but i’m ok with that for right now. Also skipped the running work. Energy was just low after this piece.

3+24 – right now I have been trying to push the pace of wall walks and is coming back to bite me in the but, consistently the mental hurdle is at 4 or more, so was flying through 3, forced myself to go right back into 4 and then I felt like I hit a wall and it’s probably a little more mental

I slipped in the rain this week walking the dog and I didn’t realize it but the fall, thankfully on grass jarred my neck/traps/shoulders pretty good and with the cyclical work yesterday I didn’t realize how stiff i was. But my neck was a major point of restriction and discomfort when trying to get my head through here today. Very uncomfortable. 145

7:08—7:18—8:45 – the bear hug smoked me on the last set, I did 15m turnarounds and had hit a wall…..runs had a turnaround and they were uphill both ways ;-)…60m was not cool, thats 5 more yards than than we will be going on saturday but I was up for the challenge and cussing you at the same time. I will have to look at run splits but I know they started at 8+ and of course as soon as I got my sea legs under me tried to dig in. Really pushed the last one to get close to finishing near 7 minute mile since I knew I lost so much time on the bear hug carry

It was running pretty hard so opted to go for shuttle runs with as close to equivalent distance as we could. Times were around 2:20-ish….and on the last set when i finished the 200m run I did 2 snatch and 2 more rope climbs….so my confidence is trending in the direction that we need it to.

PM

A – Clean x 1/Front squat x 1 – build to strong complex in 8-10 min

245 and missed 265. Should’ve gone for 255 but my 10 minutes was running out and probably just not enough exposure to make a 20 pound jump. I got down fast enough but create enough tension to hit the brakes with the barbell c

B – Clean pulls 3×3 @ 255-265lbs, rest 3 min

*use straps here

265

+

Event 4 run through

(Dball/DU/cleans)

*do the best you can with the dball setup with what equipment you have available. try to mimic stimulus and setup as closely as you can, as the dball over yoke will have a ‘skill’ component to it as well

4:23. – set up was with a 115 pound atlas stone, it bounced like crazy and would roll away at times from when it landed so I know that will be a little better on the comp floor. And on the first d-ball over i went front on and that was a bad choice as I kind of fumbled it. The strategy that i like the best was at a 90 degree angle so I could get super close and then half turn to get over. Complete those in just over 2 minutes. DU i did 70/30, could’ve gone unbroken but heart rate was really high and I wanted zero excuses to attack the barbell and this helped right away, first 3 i paced a little and attacked the last two. I did record this workout so I will watch again and asses how I can tighten this up.

1 set for time, focus on toes to bar plan

40 cal ski

20 cal bike erg @ damper 10, seated

40ft HSW

40 toes to bar

40ft HSW

8:45 – toe to bar breakdown -> rep scheme as planned – rest breaks as follow -> 9–6—12—6—19–4 – the long long rest was that I felt the fight coming on for that small set and knowing I wanted to have a good hs walk set after I thought I should take a little longer break. That was too long, but i think on game day this rep scheme will be good but if I think i need to break that long again i will go to smaller sets – going into the hs walk I did sets of 5ft at a time until I felt a little normal at the 20ft mark and then did a 10, but dropped that back to 5 & 5 to keep those short

*Ideally this is a descending rep scheme, where the size of the first set will be dictated by what you are confident to jump up and do RIGHT AWAY after coming off your hands. I think something like 10-8-6-4-4-4-4 would be doable, trying to keep rest breaks really disciplined and never straying too far away from the bar, but this will be your call. Lets give it a shot here and then adjust as needed based off of how it goes.

4:32….yes the exact same time but I approaced the bike a little differently this time. on the first one I came out hot and tried to hold an aggressive pace and then just couldn’t keep it. on this second one I tried to start out at the average pace of the first set and try and determine the best time to kick to finish.

Rest 5 min

Bike 2400m @ strong effor

4:30 – 1:52.6 – for the record I will never bike on a damper of 6 unless you  make me. That was terrible and about what I think I hard hard run will feel like. 

Session 2

Event 2 intervals

Every 8 min x 3

Echo/ass bike 10 cals

6 snatches @ 135lbs 

3 rope climbs 

Echo/ass bike 5 cals

2 snatches

1 rope climb

*target here is transitional urgency, especially going from BB to rope and in between rope climb reps.

2:40—2:52—3:13 – not a good rope climb day. Not sure if it was the bike even though it was short on the front end, but I really tried to push the pace but I missed at least one foot clamp on each round. Also cycled the barbell maybe a little faster than I might do in the full event, I was pretty much drop and go drop and go and I know the separation value in this workout is the rope climb so whatever will allow me to knock out the rope climbs the fastest is what we need to do. 

1/25 (partial sim with subs)

Session 1

3 sets for times:

20 Cal Ski

60 sec reverse sled drag or high damper bike erg

40’ HS Walk 

20 TTB

10 Cal Ski @ hard/finishing effort

Rest 6 min bt sets to repeat same intensity

4:20 —- 4:32 – only did 2 sets because I wanted to try and squeeze in the other workout. I actually pushed a sled today. 40ft on first set 80 on second. Pushed it with more of a flat foot so I didn’t stress out the pain area in the foot. With TTB in the middle of this workout, I need to come up with a good plan of attack for that piece.

Session 2

Event 5 full run through 

For Time

8-6-4 Bar Muscle Ups

5-4-3 Devil Press (50lbs)

Into

40’ Double DB Front Rack Lunge 

4:13 – rested too much transitioning from devils press to bmu, but bmu to DP was always get into it right away….on game day I can push the pace a little more, not be so attached to an unbroken set on the set of 6, thats where the greatest amount of rest came in and 6 is not a gimmie…. transition a little quicker and just focus on a huge kip, smooth and steady on DP…..was really trying to think of the best seperation value. Not really enough DP to create seleration there so was leaning towards the bmu having the greatest impact. Lunges were easy. 

*if needed

*replace DP with dbl reps of DB ground to overhead

*replace lunge with front rack squats 

+

For Time

15 Dball Over Yoke (100/70) (50″/46″)

100 Double Unders

5 Squat Clean @ 225

4:59 – had an atlas stone @ 115 but had to go to top of jerk blocks and back down so couldn’t completely simulate going over a yoke – took about 2 minutes for stone work, 8 in the first minute 7 in the seconds. Dubz unbroken and squat clean felt heavy mire so because of heart rate but after the first 2 reps I picked up my cadence and tried to be much quicker for the last two. A lot of time to be made up here and did this almost 20 minutes after the bmu/DP so didn’t get a ton of system prep for it.

Wednesday – 1/22/2025

1/22 (easier)

Bar MU – 5 sets of 4 reps for smooth tech, long body lines and good hip pop to catch them high, rest as needed with a focus on quality here

I have a bad habit of trying to rely solely on my memory and not writing any workout information down. So I did 4 sets of 5 reps before I realized I was only supposed to be doing sets of 4, so I got extra reps in on the Friday 4 sets. 

+

Every 2 min x 4 sets

Ski erg 30 sec @ 1000+ cal/hr

AMRAP dbl DB devil press @ 50lbs to the 1:15 mark

*rest 45 sec bt rounds

7 reps across on all sets. I tried to move smooth and efficient and not try to speed up cycle rate. This kept me pain free in the ankle. So good work today. 

+

A1 – Dbl DB strict press from standing x 6-8 with pause at top of each, rest 1 min

40’s

A2 – Cable horizontal row with pause at sternum x 9-12, rest 1 min

It was really nice to actually use a machine for this

A3 – Parallette pushups with feet elevated x 9-12, rest 1 min

Shoulder actually felt really good here

A4 – Straight arm hang from climbing rope x 15 sec/top hand, rest 1 min x 3 sets

My forearms are a little tender from this the day after

+

10-15 min ankle rehab

Much better day today
