Feeling pretty sore today from the pull-ups and deadlifts yesterday! I can definitely tell I haven’t done that much volume in awhile.
We headed into the gym around 9:45AM. Charlotte hung out while I knocked out the workout that was scheduled for yesterday.
Strength
On a 12:00 clock, build to a 5 rep max strict press.
I haven’t done strict barbell pressing in awhile. I built up cautiously like this:
- 45×5
- 65×5
- 75×5
- 85×5
- 95×3
- 105×3
- 115×5
- 120×5
120# felt pretty good actually. That might be relatively close to a 5-rep max PR for me.
Metcon
15 min AMRAP:
- 500m Row
- 40 T2B
- 30 Ring Row
- 20 Push-ups
- 10 Push Press (95#)
I kept the row between 1:50 and 1:55 on the first row. Then, around 1:58 on the second row. 40 T2B was probably a bit much after all the grip stuff yesterday. I ended up ripping a blood blister from yesterday during my second round. The ring rows were very tough given how torched my lats are. Finished with 1+71 in the 15:00 cap. Then, finished the round for fun.
