ICT 1

Warm up:
-Dynamic stretching
Workout:
-2 x 30sec intervals of Burpees, Ring pull-ups, Squats and Push-ups
-2 x 15sec intervals of " "
-Rest
-3 x (KTEs x 6, Side planks x 40sec, Rest 30sec)
-Twist yo wrist 5lbs, 10lbs, 15lbs
Notes:
-Screwed up timing the ICT added an extra 15 sec or so. Time ~4:30, AHR 170, Peak 182, Min 117, Recovery 8 (178-170).
-The ICT was good but moving between exercises with 15sec intervals kind of sucks. Burpees were done with out the push-up. Pull-ups and push ups were not continuous at the end.
-Abs were aight. Pretty weak with KTEs still. Its hard to avoid swinging on the rings.
-15lbs was hard on the twist yo wrist.

Weights 2/18

Shit has it been a week?
Fucked around with DeVany's hierarchical sets. I liked them and I plan to stick with em for enough time to get some results or rule them out as gay.

Warmup: Dynamic stetching, practicing double-unders with the rope, a few sntaches and ohs with the oly bar.
Deadlifts 175x15, 205x8, 225x4... 12 tuck jumps
Presses 55x15, 65x8, 95x4... 8 explosive push-ups
Chin-ups (GTG) 5, 4, 3, 2, 2
-50 on oly bar next warmup
-Deads were a good weight. They did not feel heavy per se but fatigue was setting in. No real burn. Remember to get progressively faster reps on the first set. Sub some standing long jumps for tuck jumps.
-Presses go to 75lbs for 8 next time. Good burn but not hard. Again accelerate the first set. Debating band press for explosive. Don't forget some negatives on these.
