A-135
B-190, 205, 215

D-7:02
E-45 min later added

A – 125/135/145. Really like the tall cleans. Can’t get lazy at all.
B – My Oly coach called an audible. 7×2+2 Cleans plus Jerk. up to 200#. Then 5×3 Clean pulls @90%.
C – Skipped going heavy (left adductor tendon still sore. Partially tore the right one a while back and took 8 months before I was full go. Don’t want to deal with that again). Doctor said eccentric loads should help heal it so I did the pause squats. All sets @255#.
D – First time doing this one. 8:01 Rx. Strict ring dips.

A. 85#
B. 105# 115# then stopped shoulder was really sore from yesterday.
C. 205# New PR by 5 🙂
185# for sets- My husband helped me today and really pushed me on the squats. What a difference that made. 🙂
D. Shoulders were not having cleans and dips so I rowed 30 minutes – 6481 meters.
Then rolled out and stretched. For some reason my shoulders are really beat up, might need to rest them for a few days.
Have a good night all.

A) 105,125,145
B) First part @ 170
Second part @ 180
Third part @ 195
C) 265, then only 3 sets @215
D) Dragging ass big time (sick, pain in my shoulder , hip, neck, back, my favorite socks were dirty, etc.) so I stood around and BS with the trainer for like 30 minutes, pretty sure that is a PR.

Nichole-Are the pause back squats to be done at a % of our heavy single today or based upon feel?

Dean – The tempo back squats are done based upon feel, keep building in weight as long as you can maintain the prescribed tempo! Make sense? 🙂
