SATURDAY 2/8

A. Push Jerk: build to a 5RM
135, 155, 165, 185, 205

800m Row
50 Burpees to 6" target

*felt really great on this. This length of WOD is my comfort zone. Didn't need any breaks on the burpees or box jumps. Went at a nice steady but challenging pace. Made it through the other movements to the HSPU's in under 10 minutes. If my shoulders weren't so gassed from the last week could probably have cranked out another 30-40 HSPU's easily

WEDNESDAY 2/5

A. Squat Clean x1/Hang Squat Clean x3/Front Squat x5: build to a max of the complex (no more than 3 attempts after warmup)
115, 135, 155

*probably could have gone a bit higher closer to 185 or a little higher for last set. feeling real mobility improvements on the rack position and cleans. Definitely better at full squat cleans than power cleans. 

+


3 rounds for times of:
10 Thrusters 135lbs
20 C2B Pullups
rest 2 min b/t rounds
RD1: 1:58
RD2: 2:28
RD3: 2:52

*from an engine/endurance standpoint felt great at this. And even though significant rack position improvements have been made still not at a comfortable place to press overhead from it. So these thrusters were still done from a holding position just in front of my shoulders which really gassed them and my forearms out compromising my potential on the C2B pull ups. All things considered still felt great.
