Strength: Weighted Chin Ups 1-1-1-1-1-1-1
I just practiced doing strict chin ups
Conditioning: 3 rounds of:
- 800m Run
- 9 Muscle Up (or applicable substitution)


I didn't really worry about my time on this one.  I practiced doing fake muscle ups from my knees on the ground.  

Monday, 05.14.12

Strength:  Push Press 3-3-3-3-3


Conditioning:  As many rounds possible in 12:00:
- 15 Shoulder to Overhead @ 75/ 35#
- 20 Double Unders or 50 Single Unders
- 10 Burpees over the bar

- 15 Shoulder to Overhead @ 85/ 45#
- 20 Double Unders or 50 Single Unders
- 10 Burpees over the bar

- 15 Shoulder to Overhead @ 95/ 55#
- 20 Double Unders or 50 Single Unders
- 10 Burpees over the bar

- 15 Shoulder to Overhead @ 105/ 65#
- 20 Double Unders or 50 Single Unders
- 10 Burpees over the bar

- 15 Shoulder to Overhead @ 115/ 75#
- 20 Double Unders or 50 Single Unders
- 10 Burpees over the bar

- 15 Shoulder to Overhead @ 125/ 85#
- 20 Double Unders or 50 Single Unders
- 10 Burpees over the bar

Continue the pattern for as long as time allows by adding 10 pounds every round.  Yes the first women's weight at 35# will start on the floor, and the 45# will be a little lower than normal. But you will be jumping over the full height of the bar starting at 55#.



I can't remember exactly where I ended...I think I was somewhere in the 75#  set.

Rest

Strength:  Deadlift 3-3-3-3-3
I only took it up to 205x3.  I'm still really gun-shy on deadlifts.  I really need to work on them! 
Conditioning: 5 rounds:
- 5 Deadlifts @ 80% of todays heaviest
- 400m run
14:15 @ 65#  Again, I went light on the deadlifts.

Front Squat 2-2-2-2-2

165x2

Metcon: 1/2 Kalsu
1/2 Kalsu for reps (50 reps) @ 135#/85#
- On the start of every minute perform 5 burpees, for the remainder of the minute perform max rep Thrusters...Then start over the next minute and keep going until you reach 50 Thrusters or 25min time cap.



This was BRUTAL!  I wanted to quit halfway through when I was at 25 thrusters.  The last time I felt like that was when we did Badger!  I thought I wouldn't be able to make it under the time cap but I was able to finish in the 21st round.  That last round I had 5 thrusters left and I made sure I finished them so I wouldn't have to do any more burpees!

Skill:  6 x Banded Sprints (length of the rubber mats)
Had a clothing malfunction when demonstrating the banded sprints in front of the whole class...almost lost my shorts! 
Conditioning: As many rounds as possible in 12:00:
- 15 Kettlebell Swings (heaviest possible)
- 30 Double unders 



I should have used the 62# KB since that's the weight I used in the last KB met con I did and once I move up in weight, I'm not allowed to drop back down.  However....there were not enough of the heavier ones so I HAD to use the 53# KB.  


I got 5 rounds + 5 KB swings @53#.  I used my new jump rope and got a PR of 27 consecutive double unders.  I'm hoping that number will continue to go up!
