Weights 3/21

Warm up:
Dynamic stretching, snatches with the oly bar, jump rope, chin-ups 7, 7, 6, 5, 4

Workout:
Deadlifts 1/5s 245 x 8
Press 65 x 15, 85 x 8, 95 x 4.... Push press 135 x 3
Neck strap 10 reps 4 ways for 3 sets no rest.

-Chins are getting challenging
-Deads were easy. A series of eight singles with approx 5-10 seconds between. Go up to 265.
-Press still feels like a good weight for me. Work the first set slower to faster. PPs were good no jerking around.

ICT 3

Warmup:
Dynamic stretching

Workout:
Half deck of cards - hearts = burpees w/0 push-up, spades = push-ups
Time 13:48 AHR 170, Max 181, Min 89, Recover 10 (181-171)
Sit-ups with Oly plate @ arms length 25lbs x 15, 35 x 8, 6 - 1min between sets
Side-bends 35lb plate x 3s x 10r - no rest just switching sides

-ICT was tough but not too tough. Push-ups were a strain as per usual. Reps were partials but completed all. To improve decrease rest before burpee sets. Fared way better this time than last. Good shit.
-First time doing sit-ups like this. Like em a lot. Stick to 25lbs next time and work the negative.
-Stomach was churning for side bends - fast pace.

Weights 3/17

Warmup:
Dynamic stretching, a few squat snatches, a few double unders

Workout:
Deads: 205 x 15, 225 x 8, 245 x 4... Jumps x 8
Press: 65 x 15, 85 x 8, 95 x 4... Push-press 135 x 3
A1. Pull-ups 7, 6, 6, 4
A2. Neck Curls 15lbs x 12, 2 x 15

-First two sets of Deads were good 245 felt hard. Stick with it next session. Concentrate on going from slow to fast on the first set. Stick with 5 - 6 jumps.
-Press was good. Same weights for next session. Get out the 45s for Push-presses. The PPs were more like jerks. I need to be doing PPs for lockout powa. Negatives were nice and slowwww.
-Pull-ups sucked. After yesterday's pull-ups I thought this would be a breeze. Doing these at the end of a session as opposed to fresh makes a huge diff! Get yo muthafuckinass out of bed and do these in the AM on Weight and Cond. days!
-Neck no prob 15lbs x 3 x 15 next time.

Jump Rope EIT

Warmup:

Time: 10:04, AHR 171, Max 184, Min 97, Recovery 12 (182-170)

-Forcing even breathing really seemed to help with recovery here. Interesting since I haven't seen 184 for awhile.
-100 rope turns is roughly 30sec. Next time go to 140 (35 count).

ICT 2

Warm up:
Dynamic stretching with GTG Pull-ups mixed in 6, 6, 5, 4, 3

Workout:
ICT 2 divided by 2
8 x (5 Woodchoppers, 8 Slams, 5 Burpees) (10lbs med ball)
Time 9:11, AHR 172, Max 181, Min 104, Recover 7 (181-174)

-Pull-ups are way easier before a workout
-Went to see the Foo Fighters in concert last night and I'm tired as hell. Felt like going straight to bed when I got off work. The ICT shows it. I can't compare it too much to last time since all burpees today included the push-up. 40 seconds longer does seem like a lot though.

JM for back
-EIT time 7:24, AHR 170, Max 182, Min 86, Recover 14 (181-167). Felt good, fucked up on the rope a couple times, Push-ups went well. Do same next time.
-Nice burn on the abs. Russian twist done on a flat bench with legs squeezing for anchor. Tried to maintain a 45 degree or less angle as best as possible. Started with 12 reps for wheel. Definitely do-able but gasping for air.
