Thursday, 04.12.12

Today I made up Tuesday's workout that I missed.

Warm-up:
500m Row 1:57
2 rounds:
5 squats
5 hand release push ups
5 pull-ups
10 double unders
5 good mornings
5 straight-leg deadlifts

Deadlift:
70% x3 (165#), 80%x3 (185#), 90% max reps = 210#x3

"Diane"
Reps of 21-15-9:
Deadlift (155#)
Handstand Push-ups
14:55 w/ample use of abmats!

The deadlifts felt heavy, but doable.  I was able to string the first 15 together, the second set I broke down into 5's and the last set I had to rest after 8.

The HSPUs were a nightmare. I tried to start out with just one abmat and was able to do 4 kipping, and then added another mat and struggled through to #17, and then was so frustrated that I added a 3rd mat for the remaining 4.  Second set I went back to 2 abmats and eventually got 15.  It was very frustrating because it was all about muscle failure.  I had to wait a good 20-30 seconds between attempts and even then several of my kipping attempts failed.  The last set it took me almost 5 minutes just to do 9. So I'm adding HSPUs to my ever growing herd of goats.
