Good day.
Hit the Rowing Conditioning in the AM
Really tried to just keep my breathing under control the entire time and time in the positioning. Especially with all the sprint rowing lately.
1:56 average for both 20’s

PM:
Power Clean and Jerk with pause: Up to 305.
Love these.

Back squat based off of 430.

Heavy Fran 4:58
Just needed to pick up the bar faster. Only broke on set of 15 thrusters.

Did tate presses and band pull apart to close out.

Thank you!

A. Started at 190 and finished at 275. All push jerks. B. Done. Finished at 365 C. 5:49. Not entirely sure what happened here. Planned to do planned to break up the Thrusters in fast sets of 7/7/7, 5/5/5, and 9 UB. Stuck to that but felt winded after the first 14. C2B were in 2 sets for the 21 and 15 and UB for the 9. Just the time in between sets was what hurt me. Sucking air mostly. Couldn’t really breathe. D. Did 10 sRD, 12 Pistols, and 8 sPU’s. However 18 mins was only 3 full sets.… Read more »

Great job keeping those bar muscle-ups unbroken! “Fran” at 135lb. is a different beast. I think you were smart to break. Solid Days work Bryan!

A. 145/155/165/175/185/195/205..thought the pause was gonna mess with me but i actually felt really good today.
B. 195/230/260/300/315

Did the assault bike conditioning instead of Fran. It was brutal. Too many burpees. I had 1:30 for the first 3 rounds. Then messed up my muscle ups on the 4th round so only had 1:00. Last round had about 1:15.

26/26/26/18/21….I was very happy with how consistent I stayed. Usually I go out really hard and die off.

Ran out of time for part D. I’ll do it tomorrow.
