_____________________
1. Partner pushup ladder (CTD): 1-10-1. Broke at 7 on the way back down, which was frustrasting but ive done a lot of pushups and burpees this week. Then did 100 PST-style situps.
2. Strength: 5x3 Deadlift (2 mins rest btw sets): 315# for all sets
3. Training partner and I only had access to two barbells as the gym was crowded. Therefore, we did 10-9-8...1 of Bench Press (185#), Hang Power Clean (135#). We went from the hang in order to prevent bouncing on the cleans. Did not time as we traded off sets, but we were both able to complete all sets unbroken (he could have gone heavier).
On the last round of bench press, my training partner looks at me and says, "F*ck this single, im going max reps." He knocked out 13 at 205#. Not wanting to be outdone and outworked, I hit my 1-rep bench press, then said, "Im going max reps on the cleans." From the hang position (no bounce, lol), I got 21 straight cleans at 135#.
Thursday workouts-
AM: "Brick Session" 5 mile run (36:20 over very hilly terrain), 5-7 mins rest, then 1 mile swim in 50m pool using css (26:10; held the equivalent pace of 7:52 per 500 yds). The 1 mile swim was mentally tough.
PM: On the minute, for 20 minutes, 6 DH O-ring pullups, 6 burpees. Completed w/all unbroken sets.
