9/30

A – Snatch grip isometric pin pull below knee height – 10 sec of HARD contraction, new set every 90 sec x 5

*here’s the setup – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F21nYSRRqE0

*cues – set this up so barbell is below knee height when driving against pins or j-cups. I want you to create a LOT of tension in this position. Pack your shoulders back, turn your lats on, keep your midline strong. Once you find a good spot with good connection into the pins, think about driving ‘down’ into the ground through legs as if you were trying to jump.

done

B – Below knee paused squat snatch x 1.1.1 + 3 OHS after third rep @ 42X1 tempo, rest 2 min x 5 working sets, moderate loading (work around 155lbs here, pause for 2 sec with bar below knee caps before each snatch rep to re-inforce good tension in lats and posterior chain, move slowly and deliberately on OHS)

145×3—-155×2

C – Front squat – build to a strong set of 5 for the day, no more than 3 sets. rest as needed

265 this was a perceived 9.5/10,  but in reality was probably just a 9/10, only really grinded on rep 5

D – Rear foot elevated split squat – build to strong set of 8 on each leg @ 30X1 tempo, no more than 3 sets. rest as needed

135

E – Strict press @ 31X3 tempo x 6, rest 2 min x 4 sets (find a tough working load at this tempo and rep range by the last set)

75—90—95—100

50 DU’s

5 + 300 meters – I went for it on wall walks, all except for one of the rounds – I also did this on friday stand alone as I got a buddy to join in that I knew would push me and I was chasing him the whole time. Bike wasn’t long enough for me to create enough space on it, but I damn sure tried. He would smoke me on wall walks so my goal was to go rep for rep and I did all except for that one round and he got past me on the dubz so this was really fun to chase someone that I need could get me on this workout with what was once considered a huge weakness. I sill need work but i have a whole lot more confidence on it.

I was worried about the TTB volume and it actually felt better and better as i went but my shoulder was achy after but I think that was more the volume 

PM

A – Front squat – 4,4,3,3,2,2. rest 3 min, 78-88%

235—245—255—260—265—270 – didn’t really go off of percentages as I built, as long as it didn’t feel too heidi out of the hole I added at least a little bit of weight. I can only guess where my max is right now and wanted to see what some heavier loads actually feel like.

A – Close grip bench press @ 31X1 x 4 reps, new set every 2 min x 6
*mod loading here, work on tension in body and straight bar path
I really wanted to hit 185 but after I got under 175 for my first set at that tempo i decided to stay at 175 across – and my pressers just felt tired – might have been a little more than moderate but speed was consistent and no grinding
B1 – 3-4 strict HSPU + 6-8 kipping HSPU, rest 1 min
4&8 – hspu felt great today
B2 – 3-4 strict rope pullups + 5-6 strict pullups on bar, rest 2 min x 4 sets
*switch top hand on rope pullups each set
4&6 rope pull ups felt good but pull ups didn’t feel as strong

Not a great training day. I think it was a combination of a few factors, choosing to do yesterdays workout all outside probably drained me more than i think, or ate enough and hydrated enough in recovery.

I did not hit all my target numbers….I started to do the row position in the afternoon and I was not feeling it. So I finished my day and tried to do it again in the evening. I was at a 8 or 9/10 and that was falling short of my target numbers. Was hitting 1:49-1:50 on all sets and that was a huge mental and physical fight today
