Athlete Notes:
You should be feeling much stronger with your rope climbs and strict handstand push-ups if you’ve been following the skill-based movement primers. We’re sticking with the progression, and as long as you’re making improvements each week, that’s all we’re hoping to see.
After you snatch today, you’ll have a solid test of your overhead strength endurance. If you are able to use the ski erg, definitely use it. It is going to make this workout harder, but is great for helping you learn how to pace before going into more upper body movements. If you have a compromised overhead squat position, this workout is going to get really hard. The more you’re able to stack load comfortably over joints in the overhead squat the better it will be for you all. Find a good position to be efficient and it’ll pay huge dividends going into the handstand walks.

175/185/195/205
205/215/225/235 miss

Challenging that handstand walk under fatigue!
Warmup done
A 95-225#
B. 22:08 rx (row)
Primer done
A: 135
B: 25 min w/ 5 wall walks
Shoulders smoked.
Fun start to the week ????
What is a substitute for hsw? Wall walls?
Handstand Walk alternatives:
For every 50-Foot of Handstand Walk:
30 nose to wall or back to wall or freestanding shoulder taps or 5 Wall Walks
Primer: 3:27/3:58/4:00. Did 6 strict pull ups cause we don’t have a rope and scaled to kipping paralette HSPU.
A. 45/45/75 then 95/115/135 then 145/155/165/175 then 175/185/195/205 then 215miss/215/220miss/220miss
B. 10:20 at RX weight but I forgot the HSW ????????. I’m about to just accumulate 250ft to make up for it. My bad!
Did Max do the same?!?
No, I think he did it correctly haha. We went to the gym at different times. I was wondering why it took him longer.. oops
Skill work done, did weighted pull ups instead of MU’s and strict HSPU.
A. PRESS FROM RECEIVING-Used training bar, 15lb- positioning is starting to feel a little more “relaxed” with these.
SN PPR + OHSQT- all sets at 105
HHS- 85
HSN- 90
SN LIFT OFF+SN- 85, dropped weight, technique was sh@$t at the higher weight.
B. 19:23, goal under 20. Scaled to 65lb bar for OHSQT and did 5, 4 ft section HS walks. Getting better at moving right into these instead of hesitating following another movement. Body tension is starting to become second nature????
You’re a damn gymnast! ????????♂️
Primer done with LSit towel pull-ups(no rope)
A. 20/20/20Kg
40/40/40Kg
40/50/55/60Kg
60/65/70/75Kg
75Kg x 4; mixed bag here so stayed at same weight. The lift-offs always mess with my rhythm and timing.
B. 19:57 Rx w/ row
HSW – 10-15’ sections
Rows – ~1550 cal/hr avg
OHS – 15.12/UB/UB/UB
HSW took the most time for me. I was cautious because of shoulders. OHS and row were smooth, no issues there.
What’s challenging about the liftoffs?
Not sure just throws off my timing. I did just snatches at the end and worked to 80Kg without a problem.
Warm up and skill done
Primer done (with some moderations)
A) up to 80kg
B) ski erg and 95lbs only, because lower back wasn’t good at all, still not actually
12:10 all ub, HSW UB 25 foot increments, it’s amazing how bad I’m at the ski erg
Then did a Cooldown workout
3 rounds for quality
500m row
10 reps alternating devil’s power cleans to push presses with 25kg db
1’ plank

Fun start to the week!
Once again, scaling rower to SDHP wasn’t good as it took me too short. I sub with 1 SDHP @45 each 10 m, so today I started with 38 SDHP instead of 27 cals but it was effortless and too quick.
What can I do instead of rowing? I wouldn’t use Air bike because it’s very different from rowing and bike erg doesn’t have any arm pulling..
I would still assault bike or run. Both are much better than SDHP! I’m not a huge fan of them!
A1. Sn Receive: 55, 65, 80#x3
A2. Sn PP + OHS: 95, 105, 120#x2
A3. HHS: 85×2, 90×2, 95×2, 100#x2
A4. HS: 100, 105, 110, 115#
A5. 2 Sn LOs + Sn: 115, 120, 125(failed Sn), 125#
B. 11:27 using rowing. This was fun!
Have seen your name sporadically, have you managed to get back into a good training routine?
Yes sir! Started last week! Aiming to hit MTWF and some Saturdays. Have to finish my dissertation so that takes precedent, BUT I will get in when I can!
????????
Outside again ????????
Skill work done, primer 4.20/3.30/3.28 ????
A. Up to 90kg, no misses ????
B. Scaled reps to 21,15,9,3, did with aab, no rowers outside, hs walk rx, 14.22. That was plenty for me.
????????
Starting week off right! Good work
