weight on bar=145.7
weight in fivefingers= 70.9kg
Equals= 2.055*BW

The WoD.. thats a completly different story, thrusters suck... period... i have never really lerned how to do a them...and forgot to warmup the shoulders and elbows prior to "Coe", pretty sore at the moment.

Hot Day March

What kind of wonderful things can you do while in the army???
36km wearing a rucksack @ 14.5kg in 37-41degrees celsius.. just for run ;)

WoD
36km ruckmarch
Time: no time limit, just for fun and experience
Although roughly 7h20min including breaks.

The most fun bit about this is that i haven't walk or trained specifically for loadbearing walk.
At the moment iam probably one of the few that could walk this again tomorrow if necessary.
8 in the group, 1 DNF after 10km, 1 started to throw-up at 30k marker(finished though), 3 with blisters as large as pingpong balls, and the rest is just sore as hell.

My sore from walking on asphalt for 32km, 1 blister which i had when i started and two bruses between my legs from starting walking again after we crossed the finishing line.

Well se how my recovery is for tomorrow, i might be a little slow out of bed ; )

Although it was a strong finish by everyone!!!

SQT

WU: 500m row, Mobility drills

Strength
Powerclean
5-5-3-3-2-1-1

"SQT"

Three rounds for time of:
95 pound Ground to overhead, 10 reps
200 yard Shuttle sprint, 50 yards there and back twice
Time: 4:02

Could have got under 4min if i didn't need to breath during the last set.. ;)
First 10 over head unbroken, powersnatch. Round 2 6+4, round 3 5+3+2 powersnatch aswell.

Cash-out
3*12 strict pullups

A number i felt i could do for 3 sets. Ended up being quite hard for the last reps, could be because of the cleans and snatches.

Amrap:BS,OH and burpees

WU: Mobility drills, 500m row(1:48.2 @10), press

Press Wendler Deload week

Rounds: 6R+ 3 Backsquats

Crap, a workout thats really hard to push thru... not to shabby results, but another guy at the gym did 6R+7,10 so kinda annoying to get beaten ;)

The backsquats were not a problem, the oh walking lunges were, the burpees were just a bitch as usual.

Still a few minutes behind the man himself, Spealler... or just hoping to finish the wod within the same hour.
No but seriously, tough wod and had to redo a few toes to bar and GHD situps.
All OHS unbroken, which was a huge suprise, didn't think that i would manage to keep'em unbroken after second round.

Tomorrow rest day, sometimes they just appear exactly where you want them.

A date with Helen and the Finns

75-82-89.7kg

Snatch, 1 rep

Lätt värk i axeln från förra veckan, inget tryck i kroppen(kan ha att göra med att jag inte åt innan passet) och mycket mer.
Har kört ganska mycket styrkelyft den senaste tiden, vilket har boostat marken, knäböjen samt bänken. men verkar ha gjort att mina snabba lyft ha fått lida lite..
Blir till att förbättra.

2-fer-1s??

5sets
1. L-pullups 3-5reps
2. widegrip MU rows*2

3sets
1. L-sit 10sec
2. reverse leglift headstand*3

2*basic ringstrength

WoD:
Three rounds for time of:
50 Double-unders
25 Wallball "2-fer-1s", 20 pound ball(5kg ball, the heaviest available)
Time: 9:32

Felt like no coordination whatsoever during the 2-fer-1s, had to redo a few reps as i did a normal wallball.
Very odd and very hard movement after a few reps, pretty tough to string together.

At the moment my shoulders feels wrecked... burpees, presses, squatclean/thruster and now doubleunders/wallballs... 3 hard days for the shoulders.

Squat clean thruster/Pullups

Press
5-3-1+
42-48-54(4reps)

WoD:
5rounds for time:
5 squat clean thrusters@60kg
10 Chest to bar pullups
Time: 8:52

A little too slow pace on the squatclean thrusters, this with counting down from 5 works pretty nice... but also requires you to start counting directly ;).
All pullups unbroken.

Deadlift, run/burpee

Pass 1:
06:15

WU: Dutch lowy warmup, powerclean technique and light deadlifts

Deadlift
5-3-1+
125-143.5-159.8kg(5reps PR)

5*10 toes to bar (3sets no kip, 2 with kip

Deadlifts felt heavy, last max rep set stopped at 5 reps leaving roughly 2-3 reps left in the tank, a recommendation from Wendler if it feels really heavy.

Pass 2:
16:15

WU: Rodd(full speed, stop when tempo drops under PR speed, stopped at 400m), 1300m run, mobility drills.

WoD:
wearing bodyarmor(~11kg)
6 rounds for time
200m run
15 burpees
Time: 12:25

Burpees wearing bodyarmor sucks... period!
Could have gone harder on the run, but hey burpees usually suck the life out of your legs after awhile but this was all arms.



Awesome, just doing it once and survive can be interesting but to keep coming back for more over and over again is something else.... sanity or not doesn't matter it's still needs some motivation.

Bänk+ "Isabel"

Pass 1:
06:00

Dutch lowy warmup+ bänk

Benchpress
5-3-1

Hade funderingen att köra Isabel as rxd för första gången idag, men 60kg känndes tungt och inga bumpers.. så kontrollerad nedtagning varje gång.
Men Blev ett schysst PR ändå :)

Posterior chain... ganska segt

Backsquat
5-3-1+
95-108.5-120kg(7reps)

5*10 gluteham raises

Vila 10min

10*30sec backsprintar
30sec sprint
30sec vila uppe
Gå ned
1min vila vid start

Duktigt jobbigt på slutet av sprintarna.
Imorrn om något så borde jag få duktigt med träningsvärk.

Det är snart dags att sig en titt på vad de senaste 8veckorna träning har gett och försöka se vart jag ska ta vägen sen.
Ser ett stort håll i min press styrka, frivändningar samt i löpningen så det svaghets hållet måste snart täppas igen.
