C. GH Raises, 10-12 reps x 3,

A. 185, 215, 235, 255 ( used straps on the last 2 sets. Feels odd activating glutes. Feels like it forces me to bend my knees and activated my quads instead of hamstrings. 

B1. 20# vest. All sets of 15. This one burned a lot. 

B2. All done. Kept the vest on for kicks and giggles. 

C. 12, 12, 10. Easier without the tempo.

3 sets
15-20 V-Ups controlled reps
12-15 Reverse Hypers
25’ HS Walk

MUs... 3 had it in mind to do 1 every :30 seconds... Failed the first one then made the next 2 before failing 2 more. All in all I was 3/6 and in retro spect I should have warmed up better and taking a more conservative approach. It's surprising how much harder these are when you put on some weight! 

CTB 9,7,7... Ugh...

TTB- 45. 

V ups- 15,15,15 were rough... Tried hard to work on keeping my lower back glued to the ground. But by the end of every set I was arching at my lower back when in my hollow position. 

Hip ext- 15,15,15

HS walks. Never worked on these either. First set was disappointing... More like controlled falling. Last set was 3 sets of 8' walking. 
Thursday

Row 10 sec for Peak Wattage, rest 3 min x 3
+
Row 500 for time:

A) 185, 225, 255, 275, 305, 315






Had never done these before. Felt weird. It was fun to do something different and to finally squat a little heavy. Stopped at 315 because I felt my back really tiring out. I think I can do more with a little practice. Was really trying to activate glutes and fire my hips forward like we practiced on the good mornings.


B) 270x6 bar slipped off my back but I'm not sure I had many more on me tho. 


I also felt like I was starting to straighten out my torso like a high bar. 

C) row 1: 335;
    2) 397
    3) 427

Learning to row for wattage too. 

500m row 1:41. That's a 7 second PR.

B) 225#, 3, 3, 4, 4 i was really looking forward to squatting for the first time in months... first 2 sets felt really weird and heavier than i expected... took them pretty slow on the way down and tried to move faster on the way up. no pain, just a little tight around my left inner thigh and right low back, but all in all by the last set i felt much better and comfortable. 

ladder, 3:29... came out of the gate too fast trying to beat Rochetti's time lol! had 2 no reps on the set of 8 which really took it out of me mentally. lost my butterfly kip on the set of 9s, finished that set at 2:14 and then decided if i wanted to finish the set of 10s i needed to take a long rest... so i waited till 3 minutes to go. had one no rep on the set of 10 as well... i got high enough, i just could not come in to make contact with the bar.

first 5 rounds were under :38 seconds... next 5 rounds the KBS got tough and i had to break up at 5+3... last 5 rounds my back was super blown up... round 11 and 12 i had to break at 3+3+2 then i skipped the KBS on round 13 and did a few dead bugs to loosen up my back... last 2 rounds were un broken, but super painful. It seems that KBS are still the bane of my CF existence.
