SS day 3 (took an extra rest day because of 8 mile hike + bouldering on sunday)
10 min lower body mwod medley 3x10 GHD situps 3x5 squat @ 195# 3x5 bench @ 130# 3x10 chins
remarks: shin on wall shit is becoming easy to hold in an upright position, gonna start working on holding a glute contraction during it.
super pumped that i'm about to squat more than 200lbs for the first time ever, 3x5 no less (i'm thinking i should baseline some 1RM sometime, just so i know what neighborhood I'm in).
my bench is pitiful, i had to pull 5lbs off the bar for the last set (130-130-125). i may try to incorporate bench press into every SS workout I do, does anyone see a reason why that would be inadvisable?
At the gym on base they have one...might technically be a roman chair. But its new so I'm going to try and work abs and/or back extensions into every workout. Lumbar contribution is definitely the weak link in my deadlift chain.

also, this FS wod is going on the list too...sounds sweet and i havent gotten down on some front squatting much yet.
ReplyDeletegood work on the squats. i see no reason not to add the bench to the ss wods as long as you're not doing them more than 3x a week
ReplyDeleteand wtf, you have a ghd machine?
