5R Bench/Pull ups (bench @ 330lbs): 15:59
a roasty/toasty one today – it was plenty hot in the weight room. legs were sore after the 1st Four Cone Drill – but that might’ve been because i hadn’t warmed up for agility enough as the 2nd-4th ones felt better. The 5Rounds Bench/Pull Ups was a tough one – i wasn’t sure of the bench amount, felt heavy first round… but the brisk walk across the gym seemed to be a good rest period between benching and the pull ups.

SWoD
Strict Chin Ups – 3xMax Reps
My Results
205lbs 2 pClean & 1 Jerk OTM for 15
Chin Ups: 6, 4, 4
whilst warming up, 225lbs felt heavy… however, i might’ve done that a little too soon as 205 was much too light. i decided to do the Amateur strength workout today – 3xMaxReps vs a 3RM – i don’t think i’m ready to do a 3RM for any of those pull up variations.
not sure really what the difference between Pull Ups and Chin Ups – i do them the same…

short on time this morning (did not taking into consideration multiple deuces), so i wasn’t able to get the WoD in today. i did like some of the numbers i was able to throw around this morning though. even though i haven’t done much in terms of heavy lifting in either of those lifts, i was pleased with the results.
