:12.14

A. Back squat, 4-4-4 loaded according to knee feel, 40X1; 3:00 rest 225-255-255, didn't push the knee too much today, tried to hold tempo and positions

C. Behind-the-neck push jerk, build to a heavy single #225, a bit sloppy though...

12.12 - upper focus today with the gimpy knee/ossicle

A1. 1-arm DB row, 3 x 6/arm tough, 10X0; :30 between arms, :30 rest; 88 KB- probably needed90+ for these

A2. Handstand push-ups, 3 x max (-2) unbroken; :60 rest; 10 each set- cut it off at 10, no fails, definitely has a couple more reps inme each round, maybe more but I'm not sure...







then
6 rounds for time:
5 muscle-ups(UB, UB, UB, 3-2, 3-2, 2-F-2-1)
20m heavy med ball carry

7:35...fell apart after round 3, really want to be able to hit these unbroken under fatigue. So there are two ways to look at this one... I fell apart and didn't go unbroken, or I was able to do 30 MUs plus the carries in under 8:00...I'm still of the mindset that I should be able to hit these unbroken...I had a nice EMOM pace going at the beginning. Of course, if I had to bear hug carry it, that would change it completely!



then 3 rounds not for time: :30 Sorensen hold 12 glute-ham sit-ups :30/side plank Knee is feeling better. Good to get a sweat going this AM

12.03 A. Jerk balance, 2-2-2-2-2 speed over load; :60 rest -
Used 95-155 for these, they actually felt better than last week. Watching the video, I'm not sure if I'm driving under the bar enough.

B. Front squat, 9 x 1 starting @ 65% 1RM and adding so you end on a tough (not max) single; begin a rep every :90 -

Started at 195 and went to 285 by 10s, used the belt on 265-275-285, everything felt very solid on these today!

C. Muscle-ups, 3 x max unbroken; :90 rest 6s, kinda disappointing, but not totally. I'm just glad I was able to hit 6 (my max I is 9 during "Amanda"). Since Sunday, my right shoulder has been sore and achy. I have been able to do all the movements (HSPU, HS walks, Power Snatches). My PT Friend doesn't think anything is wrong structurly. I think during Saturday's training I tweaked it when I lost a snatch at 175 behind me and then caught the 150 MedBall pancake on that shoulder (I've pumped more air into the MedBall and that shouldn't be a problem anymore for a while!).



 +
8:00 @ 80% of [4 power snatches @ 115 + 6 deadlifts @ 115 + 8 CTB pull-ups]

5 + 10 - wasn't feeling the CTBs today. The other movements were fine...




4:00 rest

For time:
300m run (1:05)
30 alternating pistols (2:27ish)

3:32...with UGLY pistols! I very much struggle with the pistols, especially on my right side. I had to put my heel on the mat edge to be able to get close to the movement, becuase Id din't want to run in my Oly shoes!

Tuesday Tester!



 For time:
10 unbroken clean & jerks, 135
1200m row
10 unbroken clean & jerks, 135
1200m row
10 unbroken clean & jerks, 135
1200m row
10 unbroken clean & jerks, 135
1200m row
10 unbroken clean & jerks, 135


25:01 - sub-2:00 on the row average was a little disappointing...this was tough! I was hoping to average around 1:50 for the rows and was near that on the first one, then settled into 1:55-2:00 for the remainder.

 I think on a re-test I would be able to shave some time off and maybe be in the 23:00s...I was very cautious when starting the C&J to be sure I was ready to go unbroken.
