"Barbell Tuesday"
4 x 3 deadlifts (nominal weight, 75 lbs., focus on form)
4 x 3 hang cleans (again, 75 lbs. with focus on form)
5 x 2 cleans + 1 jerk (went down to 65 lbs. for these as I am still working on the jerk)
Was a good workout and I am really enjoying learning these lifts. This is something I never would have learned had I just been at a "regular" gym. After the lifting work we did a short metcon:
100 ball slams for time
Time: 3:37 (12 lb. ball)
Now that was a killer, I set out with a goal of doing 100 continously and I was able to do it. A month ago (or maybe even a few weeks ago) I would have done 4 sets of 25, or 2 sets of 50. But I really want/need to start pushing myself mentally, knowing that I can power through and do more reps than I think. Also the 12 lb. ball was new as I had previously done 8 lbs. Another great workout! I did a 2 mile run this morning and felt good, will try to run 4-5 days a week as well as CF workouts.
