BS/SP/DL:

W/U: SUx100x3, DU Practice, DROMS

BS: 45/95/155/205/250 (6/5/5 - Oops bigsmile )
SP: 45/75/105/115/132.5 (5/5/5)
DL: 95/155/205/255/305 (1x5), PR+15#

Felt pretty good during warm-up so went all the way back up to 250 today with 2 days of rest coming. Was hard, but manageable. Back to 5# jumps on Sunday.

Press felt good. Concentrating hard on keeping the bar tight in to my body during every rep. Continuing to 2.5# jumps back up here.

DL: I tried a semi-sumo style during warm-up. Hmm… back angle was really good on these. My concern is it doesn’t transfer to the oly-lifting in the long run. Gonna shoot an acquantance a note on this after some more research. 305 was tough (15# jump), but looked ok. Since I’m outta regular bumpers and this was pretty hard, I’m gonna switch to 10# jumps now, and I’ll order a few 55# plates after I get back from vacation and am pressing up on my weight limit again.

8 Rounds 400m Run with 90sec rest between

30’ 5”

Definately should’ve and could’ve pushed it more.  Thought it was going to take a lot more out of me but the rest was long enough.. Averaged about a 10 min. mile.  Man do I hate running!

Thursday 100121

3 Rounds for time of:
135 pound Clean and jerk, 10 reps
30 GHD situps

Scaled this to pack sort of which was 40kg C+J then 30 anchored normal sit ups.

Will probably go up in weight next time a little and try some ghd’s.  Still only 2nd week of CF so trying not to go too heavy too soon.
