Happy with the 145# snatch. Current 1RM was 150 from about 1 yr ago but only recently have gotten back into practicing the Oly lifts with any kind of regularity.

First time doing Fran as Rx'd. Actually kipped my pull-ups and got 12 in the first round! Happy with these too as I hardly ever do kipping pull-ups. Last round wasn't kipped though as I was pretty much smoked by that point. Even got "Fran-lung".

130913 1RM Back Squat

Warm up:
5 min Airdyne
5 min DROMs
Burgener warm-up

Strength:
1) EMOM for 5 minutes:
2 Hang Squat Cleans @ 70%
Notes: This is meant to provide a warm up for both the legs and the CNS. DO NOT go above the prescribed weight. Each set should be easy and fast.
135#

2) 30 minutes to establish a 1RM HBBS.
Notes: The Cleans should provide a good warmup, but you will still need some Squat sets of 2-3 reps. Once you reach the 80-90% range, take 2 minutes rest then perform a “Walkout” (simply set up like you’re going to squat, walk out of the rack, and hold the weight on your back for 5 seconds – DO NOT attempt to squat – belts are recommended for this movement) with 5-10% more than your projected maximal Squat. If you are projecting 400#, walk out with approximately 425#. After your “Walkout”, rest 2 minutes then begin your near maximal and maximal attempts. If you have not missed an attempt you may go slightly over the time limitation.
240# (PR)

Cool down:
12mi bike ride

Disappointed and surprised with the weak effort on the squats. Granted I hadn't squatted heavy in a few weeks and I've lost about 10# since adding back all of the conditioning work. Also did this attempt on an empty stomach first thing in the a.m. 2 months ago I squatted this weight for 5 x 5. I just checked my PRs and see the last time I attempted a 1RM it was 230, so technically this is a PR.

130911 #TearsArePaleoToday

Went to the 911 Memorial in Lower Makefield this morning to remember the tragic events that took place on this day 12 years ago. What an incredibly sad and moving experience. With what's happened to me in the last few days it's caused me reflect on what I have and makes me eternally grateful.

My thoughts and prayers go out to all of those effected by the events of that day.

Squats were much harder than they should have been. My strength has taken a hit in the past few weeks when I've taken it easy. My body feels better with the exception of tightness in the left knee but the loss of strength sucks. Usually I can do the Outlaw met con as Rx'd but I had to scale the C&J's today.

OBX 13 Vacation

No real posts for last week. Since it was vacation I decided to completely (almost) unplug. Went to Tortuga's 2x. Did a few really tough workouts. Got in some cycling and plenty of skating.

It was an incredible week all around and everyone had a great time.

So looking forward to next year.

On Friday of last week Hurley was sponsoring the OBX Pro Surfing Tournament @ Jeanette's pier so we headed out early to check it out and I got some decent shots.

Lowered the weight by 10% all around since I was off from lifting heavy as my back healed.

Maybe all of the recent skating and sliding attempts have been making it hard for my back to recover but I'm getting a lot of low impact (as long as I don't hit the street) cardio and having sooooo much fun getting my stoke on.

40 Double-Unders
Time: 20:25

Haven't done a metcon this long in a while. Maybe it's because my primary focus has been on strength and not conditioning over the last couple months, but this one hurt. Bad.

DB snatches were fine, it was the OH lunge movement that took me to the suck and kept me there.

Midline: Ab Rollouts 1 x 5

All lifts felt good and explosive. The squat @ 230 was legit A2G. A little slower than I would have liked but full ROM for the first time ever. For the ab rollouts I used 10#'s on the bar as opposed to 45#'s and it seemed a lot harder. I planned on more reps but did 1 in a 2nd set and felt like if I did more I'd risk injury so I shut it down for the day. Felt surprisingly tired towards the end of the squats.
