Nov. 30th

Week 10 / Day 2

3 Rds for time of:
100 Unbroken Double Unders
Time: 6m32s
+
10 x Row45sec @75--->90% effort / 45sec rest on Rower- damper 5, increase pace over the 45sec
Completed, the pace was between 1m50 avg/500m>   <1m30 avg/500m

Notes:

- Only took 3 sets to do the DU's, I'm pretty stoked about this, I've never done 100 UB. I was questioning if this was even possible for myself.
- Row was good.

Nov. 29th

Week 10 / Day 1

A. Squat Clean, build to a 1RM
Got up to 275#'s, failed on 290 x 2, 287, 286
B. Snatch Balance . OHS, 1.1 x 3 sets, rest 3mins- all tough sets
205, 215, 215
+
For time:
30 Muscle-ups
Time: 4m41s

Notes:

- This wasn't my day, on the positive note all my cleans were successful but I just didn't have the strength to get it out of the bottom. The cleans were powerful and smooth.
- the limiter was my Snatch Balance
- I've done this before within the last year or 2 but I couldn't find my previous result(s) in my logbooks. I know for a fact this was a PR time, I was able to did this in 3, 3, 3, 3, 2, 2, 2, then all singles the rest of the way through.

Nov. 21st

Week 9 / Day 1

A. Above the Knee Hang Squat Clean, build to a 1RM
280#'s PR!!
B. OHS @55x1, build to a heavy single
235#'s
+
For time:
30 Strict HSPU
30 Strict Pronated Chin-ups
30 Kipping HSPU
30 Strict Supinated Chin-ups
Time: 13m44s

Note:

- Felt great on the Hang Squat Cleans, tried to go for 295# but missed twice. Dropped it down to 280#'s and hit it.
- The OHS session felt the best this season so far. Maybe the 5 second tempo at the bottom helped build some mobility / stability in the bottom position.
- 2nd time doing this test in the last two weeks. Previous time was 17m14s, I fucken smashed that!! Biggest improvement was my Strict HSPU.
