A. Split Jerk - build to a fast single off the blocks - not a 1RM

5 rds for time:
3 x [1 Power Clean + 4 Push Press]
20 COVP Chin Ups
(note - 1 PC, 4PP, 1PC, 4 PP, 1PC, 4 PP = 1 round, then 20 chin ups x 5 - add weight per round to BB and post)
A. #155 felt solid and quick.
14:04 - #75/#80/#85/#90/#95, First set of pull ups unbroken then started breaking them up. I tore all of the new skin I had grown over my tear from the TTB/burpee work out right back off, so they went from sets of 5's to 3's and 2's pretty quickly. Grip also started to go in the third round.
Approached the weights on the Push Press with a little more caution this workout than in the work out from last week (PP + C2B's) since I had overestimated on weight during that one. They got tough, but I never had to drop the weight.
Don't be afraid of not getting the full 4 reps on every set. As you are getting into the last set, you can try a little more on the bar, and if you only get 2, or 3, that's not the end of things. Playing it too safe can hold you back a little too. Don't be skurred.
ReplyDeleteWord. I took it too easy because I had overestimated before. I won't be a puss next time ;)
