Then, I came back after lunch and did my stuff. It was a long time at the gym.
150 Cals: 15:38. I had to do another round.
The AMRAP was good, I only had a 20lb vest and I just wore it the whole time.

Hey Angelo, I am in WA. I got the email late but that's ok. I did workout #3 on Thursday. I didn't want to risk gym situation like not having one to workout at. 
My time was 13:55 for workout #3. I did not do what you said because I didn't see it in time lol.
I did: UB on all OVHS until the 1st round of 185 where I broke at 6. I did the rest though UB. As for T2B's it was messy. I intent to do a clean run on Monday for this workout and I suspect sub 12 or just over 12 minutes.
Day 2:
GG qualifier #3
+ Rest until fully recovered
2 Minute Row @ 2k pace
3 Minute AB @ 'recovery pace' x 4 sets
I did the DL workout on Friday at a CF Timberline and it was ok. I was tired obviously which is fine. I got 8+9 but was mentally broken around round 6. I should get closer to 10 rounds on Mon hopefully.

B1,B2,B3: 3 blues, and 1 green for BW sled drags, 35lb with glute bridge work, and 70lb sandbag march.
EMOM: I experimented with rep scheme here. I did 10 UB (35sec), than 70 DU's, then I did 5,5 (40 sec) and got 65 DU's, Also, did 10 Singles (52 sec) and did 65 DU's, and it was like that all 5 rounds roughly

Tuesday, June 13, 2017

6/12/17 - 6/18/17

Monday:
GG # 1 redo - Remember BREAK up the HSC and Lunges so you don't burn out.  I'd start with 3/3/3/1 or 2's on HSC and i'd break the lunges halfway (the only difference is 1 more power clean to get the bar up and it's worth breaking time under tension for it).  Keep the pull ups how you did them last time and aim for 2:50/Round from the start
+

1st: 8-10 Strict HSPU

Metcon: 4:25 Kept all AB watts above 450, PU's 15,6 / C2B 5,5,5 / BU's 4,3,2

Row: 270m, 267m, 276m, 278m, this was interesting. I kept my eye on the Cals/hr each round as well. Learned a little something about my pace here. 
KB METCON: 2:50 and did 10,10,6,9. Not sure why but I wasn't ready to go pain cave today. I didn't even have my grips on so I broke to regrip. Good little sprint though.

3rd: 45s AB @ easy pace
+
20 Minute Mobility
GG: 3+38 and you know how that went
EMOM: Went fine with no issues
**12 Minutes is a 'decently' long time, so you're going to need to cycle relatively efficiently and find a pace that you can maintain for quite some time.  I'd err on the side of going a tad slower/breaking it up a tad more vs possibly redlining.  I'd probably go 5/4/1 squat cleans into unbroken lunges then break up the CTB 6/6/4/4 if you wanted to try to go 3 sets vs 4 you could try 7/7/6**

Saturday: DL int + push horizontal/vertical + Grinder

Honestly, was way more sore today but got extra warm for workout. Never felt comfortable though. Either way, I got 6:45 so Justin got away here but I would have MURDERED HIM if I didn't do Murph. haha
I broke every DU once but not by choice and every C2B set once but by choice. Didn't want to tear and was still very sore. Until next time JUSTIN! Until next time!

On these sets, I was 2:20, 2:29, 2:27, 2:25, 2:18 and was able to keep 350 through out the whole workout. Tougher than I thought to hit those Lateral Box Jump Overs after the AB.

A1. 285, 295, 305 and man was I spent today. My midline was trash. Not sure but the DL's wrecked me. Everything was tough. 
AB work: I could only keep 4 out of the above 600 watts and then I faded fast. Took longer breaks and could barley hold 500 watts. Something was off. Maybe nutrition or just fatiqued. Not a great day though. Struggle was real!

Sunday: Rest
