Friday/Easy 6

Tried to workout last two days but my legs are totally worked from Tuesday. I wanted to do hard 10 yesterday or today and that was my plan but my inner hamstrings can't handle it. They started to tighten up as soon as I tried to warm up. Tried to take my time warning them up and stretching but they wouldn't loosen up. They cramped as soon as I started deadlifting, even warmup sets at 135. 

Day 6 

5 min Row @ 150 BPM 
20 Wall Ball Tosses 
5 min Run @ 150BPM 
20 Box Jumps + step down 20" 
5 min AB @ 150 BPM 
20 Burpees 
x3. 

Yup- all felt good. I did the ski erg instead of run. Thought it would be better for legs that have been bothering me. They were ok on this workout. I felt them but just tight, no cramping like I was getting when I was starting to deadlift.

My quads are cramping now. About 10mn after

It's now 3 hrs later and my legs are very tight.  Mid back a bit sore too. Was planning on hard day tomorrow but we'll see, may need to be an easy day.

First set of PC 8,7. Then sets of 5 on them. Breaks too long in pc. They worked me. 

Everything else slow and steady, paced. Maybe should have gone faster on other stuff but was trying not to exhaust  myself before cleans. Last round of Ghd was a littl hard. 

Kinda feel like I suck lately but I'm ok with it. Happy to be working out regularly for the last 3 weeks.  Will fill some stuff in this weekend at cabin but won't do any of your programming until I'm back next week.

Sunday/Easy 3

Day 3 
 

Ran for 40mn and then 15mn of rowing

Run had to run pretty fast for first 15mn to get up around 150bpm, about 8:15pace. Then run a little hill and settled into about 9:15-9:30pace. Sometimes would spike to 160 on a hill and then I would walk for about 20sec to bring back down

Row was steady at 140bpm, 2:15pace, 18 strokes per mn.

Friday/Hard 5


Day 5 

A. Front Squat 4-4-3-2-1 rest 2 min btwn sets set of 4 have to be heavier or same weight as set of 4 on Day 1 

255 x4
255 x4
265 x3
275 x2
295 x1 

295 was surprisingly easy considering how hard everything else felt. 

B1. Glute Ham Raises 10-12 reps rest 2 min x4 

11 for all

First 8 are easyish every round then super hard for last 3. 

B2. Seated Good mornings 10-12 reps rest 2 min x4 

135lbs x12 for all

+ 3 min AMRAP 
5 Cal AB 
5 Power Cleans 205lbs 
10 Box Jump Overs 24" 
Rest 2 min x2

2 rounds + 7 (2 pc's)
2 rounds + 5cals

I may as well have spent the whole time doing power cleans. They are terrible right now, my pull suck and I'm not hitting my thighs but hitting my pelvic bone instead. My left foot is moving but my right isn't and feel like all the weight is on my right. My rotation with my elbows sucks too, right side more. 

I wonder if some of the pt stuff is making my back and shoulders tired/tight. I dunno. 

It's all good, just don't know why pc's were so tough today and yesterday. Maybe not enough warm up for upper body. Whatever
