Thursday, 5.3.12

Warm Up: 1050m Row, 50 Double Unders. 3 rounds of: 7 squats, 7 ring rows, 7 back extentions, 7 weighted overhead walking lunges (25lb plate)

Strength: Back Squat 1-1-1-1-1-1-1

35x3, 85x3, 105x3, 125x3, 135x1, 145x1, 155x1, 165x1, 175x1, 185x1, 195x1

Worked on straight toes and knees out the whole time today. Felt pretty easy, but I was afraid to go up any higher with the weight today. Not sure if my 1RM is going to improve anytime soon because I am not sure I should be trying to go very much higher.

Conditioning:
- 15 foot Rope Climb, 1 ascent
- 15 Push Ups
- 400 m Run

6 rounds completed in over 25ish minutes (Total= 6 Rope Climbs, 90 Push Ups, 1.5 mile Run)

This was supposed to be a 15 minutes AMRAP, but I was NOT feeling strong at all today. I was so so tired and I could hardly run, so I decided I was going to do 5-6 rounds no matter how long it took. I figure I may as well get in some work even if it is not my best intensity. Resting just doesnt sit well with me, and I felt like I should have been able to do more today but I also felt very fatigued. It kind of felt like the first trimester all over again. So my runs were jogs, my pushups were horrible (as usual, can only do a few at a time today), and my rope climbs were decent. I am glad to be done today, and you will most likely find me sleeping on the couch in an hour or so.
