Tuesday
1000m Row Time trial - 3:19.. PR.. Previous was 3:21.. Pleased with this.. I think I could have pushed the middle 500m a little bit but in general I don't know how much better I can really do on this..
I swear to god rowing without straps before workouts as a warm up every day is helping my rowing.. I feel so much more comfortable now.. I almost don't even need the straps tightened and the machine itself doesn't jostle everywhere.
WOD - Snatches, 1 on the minute for 18 min..
(6 Hang Power, 6 Power, 6 Squat)
I did a bunch between 100 and 120 for the hang power, didn't feel too great about it.. Went up from 120 to 150 for the power.. which felt solid.. And is actually a PR.. I don't think I have ever done more than 140 before.. I went on to the squat snatches and didn't do too well.. I did a few reps at 115 and then a few more at 125 and all of them felt like I was mis-hitting it.. Some position at the bottom just did not feel like I was getting it right..
When we were done I tried one more power snatch at 155 and got it overhead but I won't count it because there was a press-out with my elbows, it was more of a hideous clean and wide press.. Not something I want on my resume..
Wednesday..
Hero WOD Nate
AMRAP 20
2 MUs
4 HSPU
8 KB Swing 2 pood
Score - 9 Rounds minus 2 muscle ups Rx
I am sort of mad about this because I had a higher score in mind, but oh well this is sort of a PR..
So I got through 3 rounds without too much issue, but the muscle ups did not feel as solid as usual.. I think I was not throwing my head through at the top enough.. Anyhow I got to round 5 and started failing reps on the MUs.. Took some rest to regroup, failed again.. Got pissed.. kicked some stuff, cursed a bit and moved on to the HSPU and KB swings and then came back around. From then on I had to rest a lot to get more MUs which ate the majority of the time, but I am glad I woke up early to do this. Always love doing Hero WODs cuz they get me jacked up mentally.
I think last time I did this I got 8 rounds, but with Rx Muscle Ups and non-Rx HSPUs.. I had one abmat I believe.. Today I did them with full ROM and they were the "easy part".. So I am happy to see progress somewhere, but during the 20 minute time I just got mad because I don't like failing reps..
Night work..
Push Press 5-5-5-5-5
I started out doing the Deads as well but I did 295x5, and then 315x3 and my grip went to shit and my back felt tired so I laid back off it..
I did 95 and 115 for reps to warm up.. Then I went with 130, 135, 140, 145, 150...
I have never actually tested this, or at least not in a long time, so this might be a PR.. but I am not really sure about it.. They felt pretty heavy to lock out by the end.. but the main thing was just bracing for it on the way down and not getting crushed by it..
