March 3, 2020 – Invictus Athlete

Primary Training Session
A.
Two sets of:
500 Meter Row
20 Barbell Overhead Squats (20/15 kg)
60 Double Unders
20 Barbell Thrusters (20/15 kg)
Rest 60 seconds

Try to bring your grip in narrower on each set of overhead squats with the goal of getting to the same grip as you would use to jerk. Breathe exclusively through your nose throughout this entire portion including the 90 second rest. If you find that your mouth drops open, you’re going too hard. Slow your pace and resume breathing only through your nose.

B.
Every 2 minutes, for 16 minutes (8 sets):
Push Press + Power Jerk + Split Jerk
(Pause for 2-3 seconds in the split jerk receiving position before recovering.)
Rest 2 minutes

Build over the course of the 8 sets.

* Set 1 – 5 reps @ 50% of 1-RM (established 2/18/20)
* Set 2 – 5 reps @ 60%
* Set 3 – 5 reps @ 70%
* Set 4 – 10 reps @ 50-55%
* Set 5 – 10 reps @ 55-60%
* Set 6 – 10 reps @ 60-65%
Rest 2 minutes between sets.

Every 12 minutes, for 24 minutes (2 sets) for times of:
Run 800 Meters or Row 800 meters
30 Burpee Box Jump-Overs (24″/20″)
Run 800 Meters or Row 800 meters

If you believe this will take you more than 10 minutes to complete a set, please shorten the distance of the run or Row.

Weighted GHD Hip Extensions x 20 reps @ 1010
(place barbell on back or hold plate on chest with crossed arms)
Rest as needed
Tall Kneeling Palloff Press x 10 reps @ 2020

-Mixed modal was rough. Ab was 21-20-18, ski 14-12-12, row 15-15-14. -Gymnastics done – push press complex up to 135 – found 1rm Zpress cause I didnt do it last week. 105. Then one set of 10 at 65%. – conditioning was weird. I started with a run- burpee- row, took 10:25. Burpees under 2 min. Run about 4:15, row about 3:30. Some slow walking between the run and the box. Second set was row-burpee-row, 9:50. I looked at the wrong clock around the last 500m row and thought I was at the 10 min mark, so I stopped rowing.… Read more »

Looks like you need to warm up a little better and hit that first set harder!
