Training April 30, 2015

I am not going to lie.  This was a pretty rough week.  A lot of let down and self doubting.  I let myself wallow in it for an entire day to get it out of my system.  Now, I am refocused and looking forward to the challenges in the year ahead.

Clean  (Full)
Work to a moderate single (80-90%)
242 lbs. (88%)

This felt really good.  Still a little slow getting my elbows through.  Definitely something that I need to continue to work on.


Front Squat
5-5-5
Easy, fast and light
209, 231, 254 (Used KG plates)

These all felt really good.  The last rep at 254 was heavy, but not really challenging.

EMOM 12
Evens: 12 Wall balls 30 lbs.
Odds: 50 Double Unders 

Wall balls and double unders are a perfect example of how I have the potential for improvement. Wall balls used to be my least favorite movement in CF.  For some reason, I just could not seem to get big sets of these. Now, big sets with a 30 lbs. ball are not an issue and the 20 pounder seems like a child's toy.

Double unders: took me over two years to get them.  Now, definitely my most consistent, most confident movement.

I have to remind myself of these things so I know I have the potential to improve movements that I now struggle with.
