The weekend is here ladies and gentlemen. Time to relax and enjoy myself. Alright do homework and workout but to me just doing that is relaxing. So like the power cleans last week I decided to just do a push press heavy workout instead of my second session this week. Went with a light Grace at 111#. Working my way up to a normal Grace which I'm hoping to do in under five minutes at the next Barbell's for Boobs fundraiser. So here is what I did today.
Warm up:
5 Rounds
100 single jump rope
10 Samson stretch
10 knees to elbows
Strength:
Dead lift 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5
228 - 228 - 228 - 228 - 228
Conditioning:
Light in the Pants Grace
30 Clean and Jerks 111#
(4 mins 55 secs)
I've completed one Grace in my life and it took a tad bit over 15 minutes. Not only that it really sucked an pushed me to my limits. I think that memory held me back a little on this one. About 15 in I was thinking wow the cleans are easy and the jerks are hard but keep going up. Not saying I could have gone too much faster but after that point I was basically putting them up, dropping the weight stepping into it and putting it right back up. I hope to be able to replicate that rhythm as I move up in weight.
Today was a good day!
