Saturday 26 May 12

Balance Gym

Seated box jumps 5 x 3 (shoulder internal rotation mobility between sets)

5 x 1 power clean/2 split jerks

70kg

Bench press 3 x 5 (perform 12 dumbbell rows/arm between each set)

170 (65# dumbbell)

Notes:  Saturday sessions are difficult to judge right now because I have to be so careful not to zap so much leg strength.  I know from CrossFit Football that it's best to squat the day after a rest day.  My schedule doesn't work that way, so I'm trying to manage as best I can.  I worked up to a 30 inch box plus a 45#, 35#, and 25# bumper plate, which really got me revved up for power cleans.  I tried to emphasize speed on the split jerks, but I'm a little rusty.  Looking forward to getting back into a solid Oly routine moving forward.  Bench press was manageable, even after exhausting the arms somewhat on split jerks.  I should be okay on 175# next Saturday.  Actually, rows were pretty difficult today.  Now, it's all about eating and resting before the big day of squatting at 90%.  Should be awesome!
