Warm-up:
Jog 1.5 miles (13 mins)

Conditioning:
5 Rounds
5 x Deadlift (229#)
10 x Burpees

(between 9-10 minutes)

Felt pretty good, 225# was feeling pretty heave a few weeks ago for deadlifts.  Today the weight went up nice and easy.   I definitely took it a little slow and focused on form.  As for burpees, what can you say, they suck.

Tuesday, October 30, 2012

Friday, October 26, 2012

Warm-up:
Jog 1.5 mile (14 mins)

Strength/Practice

Clean & Jerk 3 - 2 - 1 - 1 - 1
115 - 135 - 155 - 165 - 175(f)

Just practicing, cleaned 175 but failed the jerk, lost too much power dipping and stalling a little before I came  up.  The clean was a power clean, so that's something.

Conditioning:
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10

C&J (94#)
T2B

(13 mins 58 secs)

Blazed through the first four sets of C&J then fatigue and pain took over, strangely the last 4 sets of T2Bs were the worst could only put 4-6 together at a time.

Been feeling like the last few days were a bit rough, today was a nice surprise.  Even the faster intervals felt good with a nice smooth but powerful stride.  First time in a while I'm thinking I can break 70 seconds in a 400 meters without killing myself.  Taking a rest day tomorrow and then back to strength programming.




Monday, October 8, 2012

Warm-up:
Jog 10 minutes

Strength:
Deadlift 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5
133 - 177 - 209 - 244 - Opted out at this point and went 1 - 1 -1 w/ 254 - 274 -294(f)

Form on deadlifts has felt suspect lately and in turn lifting more difficult.  Focused on good form and didn't really worry about the weights.  The final sets of one were just to see where I'm at 274 went up nice and easy, 294 not so much.  I'm thinking I'm definitely on the weaker side.  Seeing after a four week cycle what I can do.

Conditioning:

1/2 G.I. Jane
50 Burpee pull ups
(7 mins 15 secs)

Tried the mix grip on these today, felt stronger until around 30 then had to switch to the jump kip.  Was going to go for the full 100, but wasn't feeling like completely wrecking myself.
