A. Done
B. Worked up to 455(80%)
C. Done but only with the bar
D.
1 round, not sure if I’m still tight from monday or what but my back has been blowing up this week, came off the wallballs quickly(25/15/10) with a bit of tightness but two sets into the cleans I was locked up, so grinded through the rest and just got it done. Done a lot of recovery work this week but looks like I need some more before monday.

Be smart buddy. There’s no reason to grind through and turn tightness into an injury. Plenty of extra lower body mobility. Target those hamstrings and hips. There are some great articles on our site. Use the search engine and type keywords like. “Hamstring mobility” “lower back tightness”…etc

Thanks Tino, I’ll search for them, been following mobilitywod for awhile and their stuff general does the trick, hit the hips hard this week to loosen them back up but the problem might be else where, haven’t gotten back “pump” like this in a while, appreciate the input.

Deadlift up to 270lbs.
S/L Deadlifts at 65lbs. Booty work. Noted some imbalances here.
Conditioning: 1+86. Felt like I never got started… wall balls went unusually well. UB DUs. Everything else was 15-10-10-8-7.
Wall sit/Sandbag work done. This felt really good right after the conditioning which probably means I didn’t go hard enough.
DB complex work done.

Saturday’s are hard. Sometimes after a long week at the office, training and life. I feel a little slow on Saturdays since I’ve been in a hurry all week. But got the work in today. Off to coach at GG.

It’s not like you have much going on in your life to have the excuse of being tired 🙂

Are we supposed to do the SL Deadlift at 75-80%

Reply to  Chris Simmons

Now that would be a challenge! No, part B is to build to 75-80% then C Is accessory work. load Based on feel with priority being perfect mechanics. Lower volume in the lifting as we prepare you for testing next week.
