Fri: Still working on squat depth, which is coming along! Basics can get 'old' but then again you can never get enough of them!
A) BS 4-6 x 3 w/3sec hold at bottom
1: 6 @ 92# 2: 5 @ 102# 3: 4 @ 112#
Went heavier today. Push a little more each time, annie!
It's always amazing to me how a relatively light weight can get so challenging by adding the hold at the bottom! The vid is of sets 1+3. I should probably be going a little closer to failure. On set 1, it looks as if I had another couple in me...
then: for time:
50 WBs (15 @ 9')
50 DUs
50 burpees
7:19
I haven't done a large chunk of WBs in a while and ended up having to break them up a little more than I thought I would when "planning" this.
15-11-9-5-5-5
DUs were pretty broken up
Burpees are burpees. I just do them and don't stop.
I was pretty gassed when I started them so I decided to keep steady at them by doing the drop down and one knee 'crawl' up to the hop on every one. I even alternated the lead knee and I definitely think they are as efficient that way as the a tired version of the spring up with both legs.
I should have paid more attention to the split times.
********************
Saturdays are always self-select. I pushed so much yesterday I didn't want to overdue the pushing today so I went to advanced class this morn, but they were doing "Nate" so I did something different, but still on the 20min AMRAP scheme.
2Omin AMRAP of:
4 C2B
2 HSPU
8 DLs @ 165#
7+6
I used the thin purple band again for the C2B, trying every few to see if I could get up without. I did a couple unassisted, but that's it....keep at these! I no-repped myself on a couple because I didn't touch the bar. I want to practice switch grip on these too. I keep forgetting to do that mid-WOD! I'm thinking I also ought to try jumping C2Bs too.
HSPU are still used with 3 mats. :) I did a few with 2 early on, but then needed the third. Couldn't get my kip off today. I may need these and I'm pretty sure Masters women 55+ can use a box, so I really need to keep practicing both ways. They are hard even from the box!
Felt the need to do a little DL pulling today. I did the first 5 sets UB, then sets 6 and 7 I broke up into 5+3.
Didn't get sweaty on this, but used a couple goats in the WOD so it's all good.
Day off tomorrow.
