Morning: Arlington
Row 8 x 500 meters (rest two minutes between intervals)
1. 1.46.5 (27) (1.48.1)
2. 1.47.1 (27) (1.50.2)
3. 1.48.5 (27) (1.50.5)
4. 1.49.6 (28) (1.51.6)
5. 1.48.5 (28) (1.52.0)
6. 1.52.0 (27) (1.53.2)
7. 1.55.9 (26) (1.52.9)
8. 1.58.7 (25) (1.52.6)
Notes: Well, I went for it. Unfortunately, I crashed hard mid-way through the sixth interval. My goal was all pieces sub-1.50. I was able to maintain that pace for the first five intervals, but it was unsustainable. Once I failed, I was broken physically and mentally and decided to go through the motions on the last few pieces. The two minute rest period just isn't enough to regenerate once you reach failure. I'm happy that I went for it, though, and will take another crack at this goal next time around. There's nothing wrong crashing and burning every once in a while.
Evening: CFDC
Jerk 4 x 3
135, 165, 185, 205
Metcon: For time, complete 3 rounds of:
12 one-armed dumbbell thrusters (L) (40#)
1 Bear crawl
12 one-armed dumbbell thrusters (R)
3 shuttle runs
7.32
Notes: Really happy with my effort tonight. My personal record on jerk is 210#. The fact that I can handle a triple at 205# demonstrates that I'm in new territory now. Feel like I could handle 225# without much of a problem (assuming my arms aren't hurting). Then, I pushed through the pain on the metcon. Dumbbell thrusters and bear crawls are about as bad a draw for me as there is; however, I grinded through and tried to keep moving. Had to stop a few times during the bear crawls, but it was otherwise pretty good. Need to keep chipping away at the conditioning and stay the course with the strength/Oly work.
