WOD:
Go for a 1 rep max box jump (please be careful here)
Then 3 rounds for reps:
- Max clean and jerk’s at 135#’s in 2 minutes (30 is a good goal).
- 30s hold in squat position
Results:
24″ + 4 45#
33 total reps (~11 per round) @ 95#
Ok, so the box jumps was kinda fun. I’m not sure exactly how thick the 45# plates are, so I don’t have an exact number to log. It was interesting to see how many people physicked out themselves. I hear the record of the day was 8 plates!! That’s just crazy!!!
As for the C&J… I decided to go with a lower weight since I’ve been having issue with my wrist as well as my back a bit in the hope to do higher reps… well that didn’t happen, so I probably should have gone with a higher weight. I tore my had a bit yesterday during the pullups and it was still kinda tender today so I kept dropping the bar. It was still a good workout, and I was concentrating on trying to get the bard to rest on my shoulders which I tend to have issues with. I have to say, I’m not sure how folks do it… when I do get it to rest on my shoulders/chest, man does that pop hurt. Guess I don’t have enough padding up there in spite of all the excess I have around my mid section :-(
Oh and day 4!! Which mean tomorrow is definitely a rest day…
