BIG White Rabbit

Power Snatch - 10 minutes of tech work, then a heavy single for the day
+
3 RFT:
200m run
20 Wall-ball shots, 20#/10'
30 ab-mat sit ups

Shit poor on snatch as usual... only worked up to 55kilos today.
6:16 rx'd on the met-con... was a pretty good time on this.

Had a good talk with SP today about programming in some strength work (max effort and dynamic). Also went over box squat technique and percentages.

Cinco

A. Power snatch: up to a 1RM; rest as needed
B. Front Squats @ 30X2: 5,5,5,5; rest 2 min
C. Russian KB Swings w/band: AMRAP in 60/45/30 sec; rest as needed between efforts

Went easy on the snatches and worked on form... never went more than 98#. Front squats were a beotch at that cadence... 90kg/198lb was my best. Rolled with the 88# and no band on part "C," don't remember my total count but I got gassed luggin' that thing.

Chiro-Practical

A1. Deadlift: 3-3-3-3-3; rest 10 sec

A2. 10 Heavy KB swings x 5 sets; rest 120 sec
B1. 5 touch and go Power Snatch @ 40% of 3RM you just established; rest 2 sec x 3 sets
B2. 10-15 burpees @ 100% (cut back the number if 100% cannot be maintained after 10 reps); rest 2 minutes x 3 sets

On the deads we did sumthin like  221/242/264/284/308 then did kb swings with ye olde 2 pood.
On the power snatch I rolled with 115 which I was having to press out on the 4th and 5th reps. Burpees were just burpees.

Did another timed 100 du's... nabbed a 1:44. Also did a 3 sets of AMRAP du's as I could do in a row. My best was 52 which is a PR for me!

Snatch

(Complete the entire complex without re-gripping)
 
Wow,  legs were STILL sore today. Actually, my adductors are the only muscles still wrecked. I tried like heck to get them loose, but I suppose it will take a few more days still. I decided to focus on technique and after looking back on June's attempt at this complex kept everything at 115# or below.  Think my sets were something like 95-95-105-110-115-115-95-95-95. I need to start catching video of myself if I want to get any better at this. I had a rep or two that felt REAL good... wish I knew what the difference in my form was. 
Afterwards, I watched some of the boys pull some big weight on deads (around 220kg). They had bands attached to the pull-up bar above to help get the weight out of the pocket, but then as the bands retract the load gets heavier at the top of the movement. Snazzy.

F*ck I hate being rushed on our lifts. F*ck I love getting some actual coaching (thanks SP). F*ck I hate having a bad day in the gym. F*ck I love knowing there's a new WOD tomorrow.

95/115/135x2ish (2nd attempt I didn't get full lock-out at the elbow and had to press it out)

Get a Rhythm

Alrighty, so I got sooper sick last week and have been feeling weak/light headed. Also, I had a death in the family so there has been family/funeral shiz going on all as well. I'm tryna get back in a ryhthm at the gym and have gotten 2 consecutive WODs in for the week thus far.

Tuesday was Push-Press 3-3-3-3-3 with a weighted 800m "fun run" after.

I pushed 125-135-140-150(fail)-145x2 then ran the 800 with 100# sandbag in 4:40. Goodtimes.

Wednesday we did some oly-work with ye olde snatch, the power snatch to be precise. The WOD was rx'd as 12-9-6 for time of power snatch, box jumps, and kettlebell swings.

I pulled 85# on the snatch, used a 30# box, and used 2 pood on the swings. My time was 6:17 which tells me I def could have thrown on some more weight (we were looking for times between 5 and 10 minutes). However, if you could have seen my form I probably should have pulled LESS weight.


Speaking of weight, I dunno WTF is going on with my body weight. I had been a consistent 174-175lbs before my trip to the rockies, but now I can't seem to get over 168. Looking back over the past 5 weeks (37 days) I have lost a total 7.5lbs. I haven't changed ANYTHING so I'm hoping that I'm shedding body fat. The worse case scenario is that I'm losing lean body mass, but I don't know how this could be possible with my diet. I won't know for sure until I get some measurements done. I should probably sit down and reevaluate my intakes as well.

Weight: 167.8
