OL 121201 - Achievement Unlocked

BB Gymnastics:

3 attempts to establish a 1RM Snatch
\\ Opened with 170#, hit 180#, missed 190#, snatches didn't feel great, I'll take 180# for the day

3 attempts to establish a 1RM Clean & Jerk
\\ Opened with 230#, hit 240# and 250# (PR Clean, Jerk, and Clean & Jerk/end of year goal achieved)
\\ Side note - I looked up when Ricci wrote his original Achievement Unlocked post: November 17, 2011 - 3x5 Back Squat 225#, what a difference a year makes

Strength:

15 minutes to establish a 1RM Front Squat
\\ Worked up to 275#, failed 285#, still convinced I have 290# in the tank, I think the Snatches and Clean and Jerks took a little out of me

Conditioning:

100' Farmers Carry 135#
40 HSPU
100' Farmers Carry 135#
30 HSPU
100' Farmers Carry 135#
20 HSPU

\\ 8:43 - Scaled Farmers Carry to ~90# kettle bells, barbells were prescribed, cut HSPU reps in half
\\ List of shit to do every single day until I stop sucking at them: HSPU and situps, I should just do them as part of my warm up errday

  1. haha, on that same "achievement unlocked" post, ricci said "...75 more lbs on my 3x5 squat and you'll all be envious of my gnarly quad viking ink. mark my words."

  3. 250 is pretty legit! This is great motivation for myself. What is your 2013 goal?

  4. haven't thought much about it but I'd like to hit 275 c&j and 225 snatch at some point next year

  5. For your weight class, I think that's getting close to a national qualifying total.

  6. Yeah, I definitely want to get some inkage. Need to find someone legit and decide on a good sisu viking shield/sword design.

  7. Dude, chen, please qualify for some legit comp so I can go cheer you on and possibly meet my oly crush who's full name I'm afraid to write here because she might google it and discover how much of a creeper I'm being...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TphU-2RA_9w <3 <3

  8. Here's the deal, 77kg/169lb weight class, 2012 qualifying total (snatch + clean and jerk) for National Championships was 250kg/550lb. My current total (185lb snatch + 250lb c&j) is 198kg/435lb. Qualifying totals for the American Open are a little lower (247kg). If I were 19 years old I'd be 9kg away from qualifying for National Junior Championships.

    245lb snatch + 300lb c&j would get me to 248kg total, probably not happening next year, but I think I'll start a dedicated oly program after the CF Games Open wraps up in March and see how long it takes me to hit 225lb snatch + 275lb c&j.

  9. One of the head trainers at DCF qualified for the 2010 American Open. I'm not sure what the qualifying totals were that year but at the Open he snatched 93kg/205lb and clean and jerked 117kg/257lb at 69kg/152lb bw.

    I suppose I could just cut weight and go for the 69kg weight class. We'll see what I'm weighing in at after the CF Games Open next year.
