Friday -- MEBB Squat and Medium Intensity Conditioning

Warm up: 5 burpees/5 pull ups, 3x

MEBB Back Squats:
  • 3 x 205
  • 3 x 215
  • 3 x 225
  • 1 x 235
  • 1 x 245
  • 1 x 255
  • 1 x 265 -- FAIL (two attempts)
Ugh -- I did 255 with ease and I got nice and LOW. It felt great. I knew I had 265 and thought I would even keep going. I guess I was being strict about gettin' low and all, but it felt crappy to fail on 265 after I had just easily made 255 my bitch. Next time I try this I may structure it so 275 is at the top of the drill.

Akbar blaster combo (SDLHP + Cleans) CIRCUIT -- 10, 8, 6, 4, 2:
  • Sumo Deadlift High-pull (95lb)
  • Hang Clean (95lb)
  • Dips
I was disappointed with this too. I had meant to add in some knees to elbows when I thought of this earlier AND I really should have doubled the volume and done 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1, maybe splitting up the SDLHPs and cleans with the body weight exercises. Do the full fucker next time and do it for time.

Some bicep and tricep sets, alternating, on the cables...

Lazy core finisher:
  • 5 knees-to-elbows
  • 10 weighted sit ups (45lb)
Repeat 3x.

Weigh in: 174
