7/5 - 5/4 - UB on the power snatches
4/4/4 - 4/3/2 - 3/3 on the HSPU
The HSPU were a bottle neck (surprise). I thought the power snatches went well and that I moved through them well. But, again, sHSPU were the bottleneck
rest 5min 

2min Run getting HR up to 165 BPM 

right into, FOR TIME:

Thruster @ 95# 
Box Jump @ 30"

Mixed feelings on this part. Went UB on the first and last set of thrusters, 7/5 on the middle set (on purpose). The box jumps were slow, too slow. But the thrusters went well so there's that. 

Overall I handled this much better than when I was at TTT HQ. I'm looking forward to the next one of these

12/23/2016

Only had time for the PM work due to some last minute Christmas shopping

A. Squat Snatch; quickly build to a heavy single 
175lbs, after that I missed 5 attempts at 185lbs. Shoulders collapsed and the bar went forward on all of them

B1. Burpees; 7 AFAP x 5 sets; rest 20 seconds 
I did burpees fast for once

B2. Squat Snatch; 6 for time @ 135# x 5 sets; rest 3min 
Went unbroken on sets 1, 2, 3, and 5. I initially wasn't even going to attempt going unbroken but decided to give it a shot to see what would happen. I went 4/2 on round 4 after missing the 5th snatch. I normally would've tried to go 3/3 all the way through. Ended up attempting the 5th set twice. The first time I started the snatches I hit a pretty sensitive area and rested a few minutes before resetting and going unbroken on the snatches. These snatches weren't the prettiest but I wasn't all over the place with them

All for total time: 
2 Rounds: 
10 Power Snatch @ 135# 
200m Run 
Into: 
2 Rounds: 
10 Power Clean @ 175# 
15 Cal Assault Bike 
Into: 
2 Rounds: 
10 Deadlifts @ 275# 
10 Burpees Box Jumps @ 24" 

Total Time - 14:17
Went 4/3/3 on the power snatches. I ran 200m, not realizing you wrote 300m til I had finished the entire workout. I also went 4/3/3 on the power cleans and held around 280 watts on the AD (took around 50 seconds to accumulate 15cals). I did the first round of deadlifts unbroken (mistake, I wanted to see if I could) and went 4/3/3 on the last set. I should've gone 6/4 or 5/5 instead. Still happy with how this went

(alternate the split stance each set)

35lb DB

A2. Strict C2B pull ups; 12 reps x4; rest 90 sec
I was able to get through these with little discomfort in my elbow

+
3 Sets: 
Row 300m 
5 Muscle Ups 
12 Strict HSPUs 
rest 90 Seconds 
Set 1 - 3:03, 1:54.5/500m pace, UB MU, 4s on the HSPU
Set 2 - about 4:15, 1:54.7/500m pace, UB MU, 3s on the HSPU

+

3 Sets: 
75 Double Unders 
12 Chest to Bar Pull-ups 
12 K HSPUs 
rest 90 Seconds 
For the first 2 sets I subbed 5 MU, I didn't want to push my luck after the strict C2B went well. However, I ended up doing the last set with C2B and went unbroken, though they were more difficult than I'd like (even accounting for the previous sC2B and MU performed). Elbow felt good afterwards but I don't want to push it too much
Set 1 - 2:00, UB everything
Set 2 - 2:37, forgot how to do dubs, went UB on the rest
Set 3 - 2:10, UB everything, including 12 C2B

A. Build to heavy Squat Clean
260lbs

For Time: 
20 Power Cleans - 115#
15 MU
20 PC
30 sHSPU
20 PC
45 T2B

17:10
Kinda disappointed with this one. I feel like I spent too much time kneeling and trying to control my breathing, especially during the last 12 power cleans and the T2B. 

Split the cleans into 4s, went 5/4/3/3 on the MU, 3s and strict all the way through the HSPU, then 9/9/9/7/6/2/3 on the T2B

12/6/2016

I'm still having some trouble with my elbow/shoulder/arm/whatever it is so I cut out some stuff

4 Sets:
Assault Bike 2min with an ascending build up every 20 seconds as follows:
200 watts. 250 watts. 300 watts. 325 watts. 350 watts. 375 watts
Then, for Time (at 95% effort):
15 Burpees
15 Cal Row
150 m Run
15 Cal Assault Bike
rest 4min bw each set
*Note: each set the order of the implement will change after the build up as follows:
Set 2 = Run, Row, Bike, Burpees
Set 3 = Bike, Burpees, Row, Run
Set 4 = Run, Bike, Burpees, Row 


I wasn't able to decrease my split times with these. The burpees killed me each round. Splits were 3:50, 4:06, 4:16, and 4:17 respectively. Using an airdyne rather than an assault bike is really frustrating and I don't think I'm getting the most out of these because of it
