Tough day for doubling up. Very pleased with Helen, should have been under 9 today but zoned out during the transition of R1 and R2. Not quite back to last summers PR of 8:41 but it is within site again.

The second WOD killed me, more specifically the burpees. I think if I were fresh I could get under 17 min but today I was just happy to get through it. It is amazing how humbling some of the WOD can be.

"DT"

Five rounds for time of:
155 pound Deadlift, 12 reps (135#)
155 pound Hang power clean, 9 reps (110#)
155 pound Push jerk, 6 reps (135#)

Total: 12:57(1:46/2:33/2:59/2:37/3:05)

I had hoped to do 135# for all three but during a test round of 1x1x1 I found that 135 was too heavy for the HPCs. Overall it felt like a great workout.

Finished with 10 45# OHS, 10 45# Front Squat. I purposely did not go as high on the squats. I am trying to improve my ROM. When I did them at 315, I did not do a full squat. I want to stay at 285 until I feel that the ROM is correct.

Shoulder press 1-1-1-1-1 reps
Push press 3-3-3-3-3 reps
Push Jerk 5-5-5-5-5 reps



SP = 130/135/140/140/140(f) - 135
PP = 135/140/140/145/150(2)
PJ = 135/135/135/135/135 (4)

Compare to 090206

I got my 140 on the shoulder press. I lowered the weight on the PJ to get a consistent weight versus having to drop weight every set. I did ab work between sets. I felt like I didn't have the pop when trying to clean the weight today. It only seemed to affect my PJ, but the weight just seemed heavy today.

Compare to 090226 21:10

This could be brought under 15 min. I lost time because when I went to do my sit-ups someone had taken my foot anchors. Part of the drop in time is due to I walked too far last time and I was able to do the pull-ups in fewer sets.

Finished with 3 rounds of max rep BW bench(165lbs)10/1/6/ and10 close grip chin-ups. Jumped rope for 1 min.

Sunday Run

Ran into town today. Completed the 5 mile loop in 37 min flat for a 7:24 mile pace. This course wasn't as hilly as last weeks - which I enjoyed.

Navy Seal Challenge Post Test

I tested out today and here were the results

Weight: 164 (09 Pre-Test: 164.5)
%BF: 10.6 (12.0)
Push-up(2min): 107 (86)
Curl-up(2min): 208 (153)
Pull-up(Failure): 22 (16)

Run(1.5 miles) 8:52 (9:16)

Pre-Test

Happy with all of the results. I beat my goal on everything but the run - I had hoped to hit 8:45. Interestingly, I took my %BF after I took the test and it was 9.2% with a weight of 163. I guess that shows how much water affects the BF Scale.
