Press:
135-145-150-155(2)-140
Ladder:
6 rounds rx’d
Hope everyone is drying out & safe!
Quick question: has anyone dealt w/ wrist pain on the press, and have any voodoo magic to fix it? The outside of my left wrist has started twinging at the top when I press. Email jonescia@yahoo.com if anyone has the answer key… thx!
Jared – you didn’t wear a costume, so I’m not sure that you really went rx’d
WEAR COSTUMES, PEOPLE. It’s fun. It’s Halloween. It makes people smile. (Trust me, the guy who gave sold me my coffee this morning was very amused.)
Not a great press day for me, but I’m determined to get my lifts back:
53-58-63-68(f)-drop set
5 rounds + 6 thrusters
4 mile run
Press: 68-73-78-88 (PR – failed on 3rd rep)- 83
Thrusters @ 88# (PR) 5 rounds + 3 thrusters
Horrible push ups – Jared very kindly pointed that out
Happy Halloween! Sorry no costume today Lauren
58-63-68-69-69
Failed on the 3rd rep of the 4th set at 69# but then got the 5th set
6+4
73# thrusters & knee push ups
Press
63-63-65-68-70
Thrusters @ 70# stopped after 3 bc of back and wrist injury
Cashout:
50 D/U
65 ab mat sit-ups (last 15 with a 10# plate)
60-65-70-72 (but had to pp 2) – 72 (1)-70(2)
6+12
Thrusters at 65 lbs
Regular pushups for a few rounds then from knees
Been stuck working on the couch these last few days with power out at our office building. CFM is a good 45 blocks away, so I havent fought the crowds to get up there yet.
this morning’s home workout consisted of:
3 rounds of
15 pushups
25 situps
30 air squats
with 5 burpees in between.
Press: 135-140-145-150-150(2). Although I’m off my PR, 150X3 felt a little easier than last time we did this.
Ladder: 6 plus 3 thrusters. I thought Jared did 7 rounds and was wondering how the heck he did that! This was just the right weight and time for me because the set of 7 would have taken forever (After 2 thrusters I had to put the bar down). My strategy here was to rest just enough so that I could do the thrusters unbroken. I did this through round 6.
Press from behind the neck. Goal to get movement pattern in the correct path. Sets of 3
95-105-110-115-120
Metcon: 5 rounds Rx’d.
Cash out: 50 unbroken double unders, 15-9-9 GHD/Back Extensions.
That felt so great to be back at the box this morning.
If anyone is without power, I have an extra room, you can have a warm bed and lights. Anyone is welcome.
