opt being 8/25/14 - tues 6am

Back at it after a weekend of copious drinking and overeating

 

A) 15rm overhead squat - would have taken me an hour to warm up/mobilize enough to do OHS' at 6am so I did 5-5-5-5 back squats with a camber bar, which I've never tried before.

 

This is a camber bar, the load is farther in front of the midline, placing the emphasis on the hamstrings and the lower back. Went 195lb-215-215-215-225.

 

B) 12 min OTM

Even - 20 double unders + 2 muscle ups + 20 double unders

Odd - 5 per side front rack walking lunge 135lb

 

Finished the first few rounds of the double unders + muscle ups + double unders in about 40-45 seconds, but the number kept creeping up, lunges took about 30 seconds each round. Ended up falling behind the pace with 4 minutes left, so I completed the rounds disregarding the clock, ended up finishing all the work in 13 mins instead of 12. This OTM was challenging, would be good to try again, I like the muscle up work sprinkled in with other stuff to practice doing muscle ups while fatigued.

 

C) For time:

12-9-6

155lb power clean and jerk

Toes to bar

Burpee over the bar

 

7:41 - clean and jerks as singles, slow, steady pace throughout, toes to bar in 6-6; 6-3; 6
