No PB’s yet…

25 05 2012

”A man who is a master of patience is master of everything else.”

- George Savile -

A. Snatch, Max For Day:
77.5kg, 80/F

B. C&J, Max For Day:
110kg, 117.5/F

C. Back Squats, 3s Paus in bottom, 3*3@75%:
135kg

D. 5*3 Back Squats@75% of pause weight + 3 Box Jumps, 80cm

Not worried about not hitting the weights yet. According to my master plan I am suppose to start getting PB’s 1-2 weeks from now.. ;)

Namaste!





Like a Cheetah…

23 05 2012

”When sprinting, the cheetah’s body temperature quickly elevates. If it is a hard chase, it sometimes needs to rest for half an hour or more.”

- Wikipedia -

WU, 3 sets: 2 Push Press, 2 Jerk Behind Neck, 2 Press Behind, in split pos
20, 30, 40kg

A. 5 sets: 1 Power Clean+1 Front Squat+1 Clean+1 Jerk, hold 5s in split
60, 70, 80, 90, 100kg

B1. 4*4 Hang Snatch High Pull (Flat-footed)
40, 40, 50, 60

B2. 3 sets, 5 reps Snatch Balance
40, 50, 60kg

C. 4*4 Front Squats@75%
112.5kg

Felt a bit slow and sluggish, plus tired shoulders today. Next week the ”MAP” training goes back on Mondays so that every other day is completely shoulder free.

2h Rest

D. Row Sprints, 8*25s max av. Watt/2.35min off. (rest 5min b/t 4&5)

  1. 629w
  2. 605
  3. 629
  4. 605
  5. 617
  6. 593
  7. 546
  8. 569

So, where does the Cheetah come in to all this? Well, I’m happy that these rowing sprints are much better than ever before (max in single before was 605w), but just like a quick running cat, I just die after a few seconds. Nice arm pump after these though.

Namaste!

 





Who stole my conditioning!?

22 05 2012

A lifetime of training for just ten seconds.

- Jesse Owens -

WOD 1, 11 am, Hill Sprints

12 Sets, start every 2nd minute. 2min extra rest between 4/5 and 8/9:
Block 1: 13.3, 12.8, 12.3, 12.3 // B2: 12.3, 12.2, 12.1, 12.3 // B3: 12.8, 13.1, 12.5, 12.9

Maybe not Jesse Owens yet, but probably more than 1 second faster per round on average today compared to last week. Legs are getting stronger but I still feel asthmatic when doing these, feels like I cant breath the first 10-15s after each sprint.

WOD 2, 4pm, MAP

4 min AMRAP@80-90%

  • 3 MU
  • 6 DB PP, 2*20kg
  • 4*7m Shuttle Run
    4Rounds

    Rest 3 min 

4 min AMRAP@80-90%:
  • 7 Wall Balls
  • 7 Toes to Bar
  • 150m Row
    2R+7+7

    Rest 3 min

4 min AMRAP@80-90%:
  • 1 Monkey Bar Traverse
  • 6 Front Racked Sandbag Step Ups, 20kg
  • 22 Double Unders
    3 Rounds
OK, so it’s not me being asthmatic, I’m just shit out of conditioning right now. Goal was to keep a pace in these where I could move the entire time and do everything unbroken. UB worked fine, but as soon as I push it a little I get out of breath. No fatigued muscles, just plainly aerobicly toasted. Well, well, it will come back when I focus on that..
Namaste! 




Listening to the body, or just plain lazy?

Namaste!





Friday & Saturday

”Enlightenment happens only in that moment when there is no complaint in you, when you are not going anywhere, not desiring, not condemning, not judging. You simply exist and with total acceptance. This moment there is enlightenment.”

Surprising misses in both lifts since it felt very solid all the way. Both was a case of sloppy receives and I feel positive about getting some new PB’s within soon!

Feeling fast!

Hill Sprints

15 05 2012

”It is your freedom to be a Buddha or not to be a Buddha — and if you like sleep and the dreams it’s perfectly okay with me. I respect your freedom.”

- Osho -

Steeper than it looks

10am, Hill Sprints, 10 rounds every other minute, (4min between 5&6):
14s, 14, 13, 12, 12, 12, 12, 13, 13

Cut my usual hill basically in half, goal is full power output and speed rather than conditioning. Hurt my throat and chest more than the legs, hope it was just momentarily.

In the afternoon the rehab for the shoulder continued. Felt even manlier than yesterday when I barely could externally rotate a rubber band thick as a shoelace…

Namaste!
