-Did workouts for competition in Bakersfield this weekend.
-anyone work night shift? I’ve been doing it for 4 years but it’s finally catching up to me and with the volume I need a new game plan.
Always tough working night shift. What’s your schedule?
7-7. I work 3 12s but the days switch each week. This week was 2 on 1 off 3 on 1 off 1 on 3 off. Ha therefore body is a little wrecked and lifts are hard. I try scheduling a workday on our rest days. Example. If I work 3 in a row I try making that middle day a Thursday or Sunday.
Do you go home sleep then train or viceversa?
I sleep first then train.
How long? Hows nutrition?
Usually 8-2 so like 6 hours but try to sleep 9-10 on off days if I can. Nutrition is pretty good. I count my macros and I’m pretty consistent. I add carbs in days that are long and I’m up for like 24 hours.
Tough deal for you but like I said you seem to be controlling what you can control and that’s all you can really do at the moment. Another suggestion is to make sure you adjust accordingly and understand quality of training will always win over quantity. Don’t feel you need to be doing a high volume to make progress. That could be detrimental as your body can’t adapt and recover. Train smart!

Close, but not quite last week numbers. I actually thought last week was way harder with the rest and the ability to go a little harder per work station
That’s solid dude, good to see those conditioning numbers so close!

Good day of lifting Jacob! Nice work!
Thanks Tino! Wanted to get the conditioning in to compare today but my gym is did away with afternoon open gym except on tuesdays to try to get more people into classes so going to be working thru growing pains of either hitting what Conditioning I can in my garage or doing gym conditioning while keeping my mornings dedicated to strength #strengthisthepriceofadmission
You’re getting in what’s important. That’s what counts!
For the running, I just want to confirm I am calculating my paces correctly because they seem too slow when I’m doing them…
For a 7:25 mile on the air runner , I calculated
80% @1:06/200m
90% @ 1:01/200m
100% @ :55/200m
7:25= 445 seconds/8 =:55.6/200m
80% of 445=356 ; 445-356=89;
445+89=534; 534/8=66.7 sec/200
90% calculated the same way
80% should be:
7:25=445s
445/.8=556
556/8=1:09
Primary strength
A) 65/75/85 snatch press
95/115/135 drop snatch
135/155/185/205 snatch balance
B) 135/145/155 high hang
155/165/175 hang
185/195/200 2” below knee
200/205/210f snatch lift off + snatch
210/215/220f snatch
C) worked up to 270 really trying to drive up without my elbows falling down
D) 10 glute ham raises and 65lb db for split squats
Strength accessory
A) rows at 165, this got really gnarly towards the end
Will do b/c/d tomorrow it’s been raining all day and the gym floor is wet and I wouldn’t get any traction doing sled pulls/pushes today so I’ll save it for tomorrow!
I don’t like the elbows up cue on front squats. If possible get a full grip on the bar and think about driving your palm against the bar. This should engage your obliques and lats giving a solid rack position and upright torso.
Thank you Tino I’ll keep that in mind for next time!
