Monday 12 Dec 11

Recap: We're now only 6 weeks out from the SuperFit Games. Looking back on my last week of training, the focus was definitely on squatting. Between dumbbell thrusters on Tuesday, back squats on Wednesday, and front squats on Sunday, I definitely did my fair share. Most importantly, the improvement is noticeable. My performance of triples at 205# is indication that I'm closing in on my goal of front squatting 225#. This should have massive carry-over to movements like thrusters, wallball shots, and cleans.

Not much direct posterior chain work this week. Probably for the best after last Sunday's deadlift beatdown. I did get in some solid pressing endurance work. The handstand push-up practice and dips and Thursday helped, as did my push-ups on Saturday and general dumbbell pressing during Tuesday's metcon. I'll be looking for more opportunities to mix in some pressing post-workout.
