Cycle 3 W4D7

A. Jerk Balance; 3 reps; rest 90s x 3 sets

Done @ 130-135-140. Last rep @ 140 wasn't pretty but the first two reps were solid. Definitely feel like I'm getting the hang of these and excited to see how they translate to a regular jerk.

B. BB Z Press @20x1; 6-8 reps; rest 2 minutes x 3 sets

Done @ 75-75-80. Got 8 reps on sets 1+2, only managed 6 reps @ 80 but happy with the increase in weight (previous weeks all sets @ 70). 

C. Strict HSPU; 1 set AMRAP; rest 2 minutes x 2 sets

Results: 1) 7 reps, 2) 5 reps. Feel ok about this. Would have loved a couple more reps each set but overall ok. Continue to focus on hand placement, elbow positioning, and hollow position - that last one is def a work in progress.

D. Strict Pull Ups; 1 set amrap; rest 2 minutes x 2 sets

Results: 1) 22 reps, 2) 16 reps. Woof, that second set was a fight. 

E. 100m Row ALL OUT; rest 3 minutes x 4 sets

Times all between 0:18-0:19. Feel like I could have been 1-2 seconds faster but I kept verging on falling off the seat!

F. 20 Minute Z1 - done on AB

OVERALL: Solid day. Energy coming back after last week, definitely feeling close to replenished as far as food/fuel and getting over the intense fatigue.

  1. Solid increase on the Z press and definitely a solid day for being so close to travel + the stomach issue on travel.

    Reinforces our thoughts that pressing is your priority vs pulling, but we are definitely going in the right direction there as we can see with the increases in strict press / z press.
