Today’s Workout
On the minute
Perform 2 Power Cleans & 1 Jerk on the minute for 15 minutes.
*Start the clock. At the top of every minute perform 2 cleans & 1 jerk.
*Use a maximal weight. 65-80% of 1 RM
*For every rep not completed, perform 5 burpees during rest time.
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…

Today’s Workout
Complete 10 rounds:
3 Weighted Pull Ups
3 Box Jumps @ 70% of 1 RM Box Jump
Sprint 10 yards
*Rest 40 seconds between rounds
Strength WoD
Power Clean 3,3,3,3,3
My Results
WoD: 25lbs (5 rounds), bodyweight (5 rounds): 11:17
SWoD: pCleans: 225, 245, 255, 245, 255
have i mentioned before that pull ups are the suck? yes, i have and i will continue to – most likely until the day i die. started off pretty solid with the WoD today, but the weighted pull ups started draggin me down, so i dropped the weight half way through. i also feel i’ve found my grip limit with regard to power cleans – right around 250lbs. i dropped back down to 245 because the third set was almost a fail (and i didn’t want it to get epic), but the 4th set felt a lot better.

don’t have rings available to us, so subbed regular dips for ring dips
didn’t get back from Pheasant Fest until late Sunday night, so we skipped Monday’s workout. i’m still struggling with not being tired, but we got the workout done today – it was a lot harder than i had expected (you’d think i’d just expect these workouts to always kick my @$$ by now). apparently, my triceps are a lot weaker than i remember – the dips are what killed me today. to make up for no Monday workout, i’ll get some work done on Frid… looking forward to it as always
