4x10 supine rows on a bar
Pressing light for the time being, I plan on having my lower back constantly trashed from deadlifting until the meet, and pressing with a weak core sketches me out. Going home for the weekend so I think I'll shoot for max reps pushups per day.

Nearing the End of Strength Cycle
Strength PRs:
Squat 465lbs x 5
Bench 270lbs x 5 x 3
Press 180lbs x 5 x 3
Random Oly PR:
C&J 130kg.
I have 2 more weeks and then I will run a mock meet and test my new maxes. My goals are: squat over 500, bench over 300, press over 200.
Astute individuals will notice that I didn't mention the deadlift. With that one, I'm trying to strengthen my back as much as possible by doing it beltless and only with weight that I can do without rounding my back at all. Currently I'm working with 385lbs for 5.
I've also gained about 10lbs on this strength cycle which means I'm way over my weight class. My next meet is scheduled for August 2nd, so when I come off the strength cycle I will start dieting.

1k row @ 2:00/500m
1x5 deadlift @ 405
Pretty disappointed this was as hard as it was, especially considering I'm competing in 30 days. I guess that's what i should expect, I'm down 15 lbs to low 160s and knocked a few points off my bodyfat percentage. I'm considering doing a few months of bodybuilding programming after the meet, just for a change of pace and to learn new things and get more jacked...someone talk some sense into me.

Then two cleans on the minute at 90kg/198lb for 10 minutes.
Then worked up to a heavy front squat triple, up to 265lb, which felt good, decent speed on the way up.
Then did regionals individual event 5 just for shits:
10 rounds:
1 legless rope climb (14')
200 foot sprint
4:20 - good for top 20 in each of the three regions that completed the workout yesterday.

DCF Sat
WOD 1 (3 males):
50 thrusters 135#
10 rope climbs
40 thrusters
8 rope climbs
30 thrusters
6 rope climbs
Partition work however you want, once the bar is picked up from the ground for each set of thrusters it cannot touch the ground until the set is complete. Each male must complete one rope climb each round.
Not going to post our exact time but with some more practice on the transitions we should be able to cut 10-15 seconds off. Of the three regions that have done this workout today, our time would be 1st in Canada West, 8th in South East, 6th in North Central.

WOD 2 (each of the 6 team members complete the following one at a time, alternating M/F/M/F/M/F):
9-6-3
Strict HSPU
Hang clean 160#
Bar facing burpee
4:00 - about 90 seconds slower than my PR time earlier in the week. Did the HSPU 9; 3-2-1x-1; 1-1x-1-1. Attribute the slower time to being fatigued after WOD 1. I wonder if this is an instance where creatine would help.

Thoracic Spine Mobility
Overhead
Internal Rotation
4 minute AMRAP: 10/30/60/90/120 Handstand Walk
3 sets of: 4 Hang Snatch "Pulls" @ 70/90/110% of "Opener" Snatch (use straps)
1 "Cold" Snatch @ 80% of your Opener
Pulls felt good, OH mobility is still shit, snatch catch is not good, tried "opening" with 145 for my 80% and missed it 3 times, mind you this is my 1RM muscle snatch, need to keep working my OH mobility
---
For Time:
49 Standard Kipping Pullups
...then IMMEDIATELY sprint 50' and Full Snatch + 3 OHS 185
Notes:
-No butterfly-ing allowed.
-SPRINT HARD and perform the snatch OHS as fast as possible.
Skipped this, after failing my snatches there was no way I was OHS-ing 185
---
For Time:
50, 5 Alternating Deadlifts (275/185)
50, 5 Alternating Toes to Bar
**Do this in your teams all at the same time against one another**
Notes:
-Don't just do ths workout, try and find an advantage
-Try and discover what strategy will work best
4:37 - did the full event this past Sat with the same partner in 12:30+, the deadlift/T2B portion that we did today took about 8:00 on Sat so this is a marked improvement, partner was able to move a lot faster on the deadlifts
---
For time:
9-6-3:
Strict HSPUs
Hang Power Cleans, 160
Burpees over the bar
2:48 - HSPU: 9; 5-1; 3; marked improvement from last Fri (4:29), but we also didn't do 50 thrusters at 135 before today's workout, unfortunately at regionals the thruster/rope climb workout is one hour before this one. Need to practice shortening cycle time on burpees and not taking a step to get up to the bar.

Felt like puking at the end so backed off. That said, it's likely that I would have powered through if I was at the box instead of doing it solo

DCF Sun
Complete as a relay for time:
49 pull-ups
7 overhead squats, 185 / 115 lb.
(M/W/M/W/M/W)
Jumping Quarter Squats + Chains, Goal Snatch Weight + 3 chains/side
Notes:
- Work here on a FAST eccentric, ZERO time spent in the bottom of the "dip" and as EXPLOSIVE a turn around as possible. The focus is turning the weight around as fast as possible from "dip" to explosion
- Look at this like a "Hang snatch" with the bar on your back.
- Pause for a moment to reset between reps
- Don't go heavier, get faster and more explosive.
3 sets of 10:
12" Depth Jumps to Max Jump
....rest 3-5 seconds between reps...
....rest 2-3 minutes between sets...
Notes:
- The focus here is just spending no time on the ground, super fast turn around.
- Use a 30" box or so but focus on exploding as HIGH as possible
400m(m)/200m(f) Run
4,3,2 Rope Climbs
Each member runs 400m then 4 rope climbs, then each member runs 400 and 3 rope climbs, etc. Fun workout, took me 1:57 for the first round didn't get a time for the last two.

Continuing to lean out to get down to 165 for a meet in mid june. I'm at like 168. Stress ate the fuck out of some mexican food before class though. That may have set me back. I'll post some weight tracking plots when i have more data that makes me look jacked and tan.
