Sunday 17 Jun 12

CFDC

RDLs 8-8-5-5-3-3

135-185-205-225-245-245

Then, weighted step-ups 5 x 10 @ 135#

3 x max glute hold/hollow hold

3 x 10 pull-ups/15 push-ups

Notes:  Used straps once I got to 225# on RDLs and they made a huge difference.  Need to hinge more at the hips.  Right now, I'm maintaining too upright or a torso.  Had trouble maintaining the tension at 245#, so I kept the weight there.  Performed a back-off set of five at 185# to practice technique.  Step-ups were difficult because we used a higher box than in the past (20 inches).  It's easy to cheat with the off leg, but it's a great exercise if performed correctly.  I'm curious to see how back squats will feel next week and all the front squatting coupled with our posterior chain assistance work.  Kipping pull-ups felt difficult.  It's definitely time to start building the volume on those.
