The first part of my training today was to find my max snatch, clean and jerk, and front squat for today.
Results:
Snatch 135#
C & J 165#
Front Squat 190#
Snatch: I was so close to 140#, and it is a little frustrating that I didn't end up getting it, but hopefully next time. 135# ties my previous PR and I hit it on my first try.
C & J: I haven't done a clean and jerk max since the 2010 norcal qualifier where I think I did somewhere around 140#. The jerk is clearly my limiting factor. I need to really work on my jerk and learn how to do it because I refuse to drop and I am always pressing the bar out.
Front squat: I am trying to build up my front squat but today I didn't feel very strong. 190# ties my previous PR, which is better than my attempt about a week ago, where I maxed out at 185#, but I really want to break 200# soon.
Part 2:
TRAINING:
5 sets @ 97%:
10 Front Squat heavy
5 rope ascents - 20'
Row 400 m
rest walk 6 min b/t sets
(add weight per set to FS)
RESULTS:
Did 6 rope climbs per round on a 14' rope, reach up to 15'
front squat load/ time
125#/5:40
130#/ 5:56
135#/6:26
140#/7:21
145#/ 7:51
all front squats were unbroken, and almost every rope climb was done in 2 pulls. i used a weight belt for my last set at 145# because my back/core was destroyed after 140#. Overall, I felt pretty good during the front squats. Last week I was squatting 150# and it was a tough triple, today I surprised myself and hit 145# for 10 unbroken reps which was pretty cool.
