A2. Natural Knee Extension; 8-10 reps x 4-5 sets; rest as needed

A1-A2 done

This BFR stuff was wild. I definitely need to get better at dealing with that 'pain cave' local muscle discomfort, especially in my quads. My legs just stopped working during the bike portion, and my 'moderate paces' were very slow
Using wraps to occlude both legs @ high hip - 75% tension (*you can use basic strength wraps)

12/26/2018

I didn't have much time to get into the gym so I did the following (it was supposed to be done last Saturday). I made no attempt to pace these relative to one another or within each set, and I tried to go UB on everything I could just to see what would happen. 

For time:
12 pullups
12 K HSPUs 
3 cleans @ 185
9 C2B 
9 Strict HSPUs 
3 cleans @ 185
6 BMU
6 Deficit K HSPUs (2") 
3 cleans @ 185

5:10
UB pull-ups/C2B/bar MU
UB kHSPU, 5/4 sHSPU, 3/3 deficit kHSPU
The power cleans felt gross right from the start. My first pull felt like a 1RM attempt and it got worse from there.

rest 4min 


12 pullups
12 K HSPUs 
2 cleans @ 225
9 C2B 
9 Strict HSPUs 
2 cleans @ 225
6 BMU
6 Deficit K HSPUs (2") 
2 cleans @ 225

7:45
UB pull-ups/C2B/bar MU
UB kHSPU and deficit kHSPU, 5/4 sHSPU
I started losing a lot of time preparing for the power cleans. There was some time lose between gymnastics movements but it wasn't near as much as what I lost going into the power cleans.

rest 4min 


12 pullups
12 K HSPUs 
1 cleans @ 245
9 C2B 
9 Strict HSPUs 
1 cleans @ 245
6 BMU
6 Deficit K HSPUs (2") 
1 cleans @ 245

12:42
UB pull-ups/C2B/bar MU
UB kHSPU/deficit kHSPU, 3s on the sHSPU
This was by far the worst one, entirely because of the power cleans

12/24/2018

A. Squat Clean; Start at 205#, add 10# every min until failure, must start each min with 20 double unders 
Built to a 265lb clean

3 Rounds for time: 
9 Front Squats @ 155# 
12 Burpees Over Bar

12/21/2018

A. Hang Power Snatch + Hang Squat Snatch + Squat Snatch; 1 complex on the 90 seconds for 8 sets
165lbs - 165lbs - 165lbs - 165lbs - 175lbs - 175lbs
I forgot to video two sets. Overall these felt gross. I was on my toes a lot, and I felt slow. Not really surprising, but still frustrating.

B1. Bear Hug (sand bag/medball 50#"ish") Wall Squat; 40 sec x 4 sets; rest 15 seconds 
Made it through each set without dropping the dball

B2. Wall Balls; 35 AFAP x 4 sets; rest 15 seconds 
UB for the first three sets, 20/15 for the last set

B3. Back Squat; 5 reps AHAP x 4 sets; rest 3min bw sets (at least 5# heavier than 2 weeks ago) 
262lbs

B1-B3 destroyed me. I had to lay down for about 20min and it was another 20min before I could attempt the emom. Spoiler alert, I changed it because I was still pretty dead from B1-B3


21min EMOM: 
Min 1: 10 Cal Assault Bike 
Min 2: 6 Sand Bag Cleans @ 100# 
Min 3: rest 
I attempted it with 15 cals on the assbike and using a 150lbs sand bag. It did not go well, so I adjusted to what is above.

For Time: 
21-15-9: 
Power Clean and Jerk @ 115# 
Kipping HSPUs 
9:00
I came out pretty hot for the round of 21 clean and jerks, doing a set of 5 followed by 4s. My rest breaks throughout the workout were pretty consistent, but I should've paced this first 21 better

PM
A1. C2B Pull-ups; 12 reps x 4 sets; rest 60 seconds

UB for each set

A2. Muscle Ups; 6 reps for time x 4 sets; rest 3-4min bw sets

The shoulder to overhead were by far the worst part, and I broke up the round of 40 into sets of 5 or 6. The HPC and T2B went ok, but could've been better

12 minute amrap: 
12 Cal Row 
9 CTB pull ups 
6 burpee box jump overs (24/20)

6 Rounds + 6 cal row
I held about 1220 cals/hr on the row, split the C2B into 5/4 (UB round 6), and was pretty quick on the bbjo

12/7/2018

For Time:
20 front squat (185)
15' hs walk
40 DB box step over (50/, 24")
30' hs walk
60' DB walking lunge (50) - in farmer's position
60' hs walk
80 wall balls (20#)

15:44
I'm surprised this went so well. The worst part about this was the box step overs because of my grip. Otherwise they weren't too bad, but I had to break them up far more than I would've liked. I split the FS up into 8/7/5. The HS walks went extremely well, but there was some hesitation to start them after completing the FS, stepovers, or lunges. I split the wall balls up into 20s, but there was probably a 1:1 work to rest ration for those, and I should've pushed harder at the end to minimize those rest breaks.



1-2x through; 6-8 reps each of:
A1. Slow and Controlled Cossack Squats w/ deep end range hold (calf focused end range)
A2. Pigeon to T-Spine Rotation 
A3. Bottom of Squat Heel Lifts

Average on the bike was 290 watts, split the kb swings into 15/15/10 and the C2B into 10/10/4/3/3.

I'm not happy about this second one at all, specifically my power output on the bike and that the rest breaks were far too long. I'm also not happy about how I split up the last set of 10 C2B.

I stopped after this one, during the run for the last workout my quads and calves were cramping a lot, and I figured it would be best to stop here.

:27 - :27 - :55 - 1:08
UB for the first two, came down once during set 2 and twice during set 3.


The following did not go well and I only completed 2 of the three sets because I was not feeling good at all. I was having a very difficult time maintaining anything above 1100 cals/hr on the row and increased the pace on the bike while trying to stay consistent on the row and run. Kind of a waste of a day and I've been frustrated with most of the past several days of training.

A. Squat Clean + Jerk; 1 on the 90 seconds for 8 sets 
215lbs x3 - 225lbs x2 - 235lbs - 245lbs - 250lbs

16 minute amrap
20 thrusters @ 95#
20 ttb 
20 hang power clean @ 95# 
20 box jumps

217 Reps (2 rounds + 17 HPC). Not happy about this one at all. I split the thrusters, t2b, and hpc into 7/7/6 and stepped down on the box jumps. I figured this would allow me to consistently move through everything. Especially the box jumps, I think it would've been worse had I tried to rebound. Breathing was the biggest issue I had, being unable to figure out how to breathe through the thrusters quickly made everything else miserable.

For Time: 
10-----1
Thruster @ 115# 
Deadlift @ 225# 
Burpee (6" reach) 

18:20
I was not ready for this at all. To start, based on the thrusters I've been doing over the past several Fridays I decided to go UB on those (4/4 on the set of 8, no particular reason why) and split the deadlifts up quite a bit (the sets of 10 and 9 were split up into 3 sets of smaller reps, 8 to 6 were two smaller sets, 5 to 1 were UB) as a way to keep some sort of pacing structure following UB thrusters. I figured it would be easier to stick with consistent sets on the deadlifts rather than split up the thrusters a lot. The burpees were kind of slow but consistent. Very quickly I had trouble keeping consistent breaks moving between movements, and I could not control my breathing. I was breathing through each movement, but I think I was generating far too much tension and it really messed me up when I would try to move to the next movement.

rest 10min 


For Time: 
1000m Row 
30 Power Snatch for Time @ 115# 

9:10
The row was at a 1:56.5/500m pace, and I did singles on the power snatches. I'm not happy with this one, but I'm not as frustrated with it as I was the previous workout. I wasn't able to generate and sustain a lot of power on the rower. The power snatches were a bit too slow as well.
