Did it all on Sat but no time to log it.
MU accessory only (shoulder almost back to 100% after consult with Gymnastics coach decided that accessory work tat would avoid sudden major impacts would be better)
3 rounds
* 5 Hips to rings
* 3 Hold in catch for 10 seconds then slow negative
* 5 banded transitions
* 5 ring dips

Cleans 115/135/155/165/175 (capped to 5 sets exactly)

3 rounds plus 32 (6 cl+ 26 dubs . 2 trip ups in 3rd Dubs round. )

Did this morning:
A. ring MU…10, 5, 3
B. worked up to 265lbs on final set
C. 3rds+6PC+ 19 dubs
D. completed as prescribed but didn’t track time for each round…definitely paced out those last 2 rows a little bit as staying UB on those 30lb wall balls took some mental fortitude for sure.

You would have thought we trained together today! Same on the 2# PR and I also had 4 misses in the first round of dubs.? It would have been a close race on the row and WBs!

C PC and dubs 3rounds and 1 rep
C2. Row and wall balls 1:54,2:00,1:59,2:02

A. 11/6/5
B. Up to 185
C. 3+2 then ~ 10:10 No room in the gym so we did 200M run and WB outside. Missed the 90 seconds rest between sets part and went straight thru but ended up taking about 30 sec rest after the runs anyway to make sure I could go UB WB.

A. Push-ups 40/20/10 – By the 30s Max reps my arms were pretty well toasted. B. clean + front squat 115/125/135/145/155 – was tempted to try @ 165. Cleans felt pretty good today. C. PC’s + DU’s – 4 rounds + 8 Able to cycle through the Cleans and DU’s were on today. Was tempted to go singles near the end, but didn’t listen to that little voice inside. C. Row + WBS – 1:54/1:54/1:56/2:00 – Glad there were only 4 sets! Able to keep the WBS unbroken. Happy with that. Pace on the rowing was just about right for… Read more »
