• 1 round of light DT (115/85)
  • 12 Deadlifts
  • 9 Hang Cleans
  • 6 Jerks

Commentary

Overhead squats are difficult for me, so I was intent on going unbroken during the 2 minutes of overhead squat holds. I used a 15lb plate under my heels to make up for my lack of mobility.

I worked up to 215lbs for the complex, which might be a PR on hang cleans. I was tempted to try 225lb, which would have been a clean and jerk PR.

I used the air runner during the Metcon and was able to hold pace through the first four rounds. I missed the final round by 8 reps of the complex. I finished them, but it was after the three-minute mark. I also used 125lb instead of the programmed 115lbs.

Strength

  • Work to a heavy power clean and jerk

Commentary

I started the clock with a 95lb clean for 8 reps and 3 jerks for a warm-up, and I worked my way up to singles in the 185lb to 205lb ranch.

I started the deadlifts at 225lb and worked up to 325lb.

My wife and I have been working on our running endurance together. We are now running for 3 minutes followed by a recovery period. My heart rate was in the 145 – 150 bpm range during the runs and I recovered to around 118 to 120. We set a record of 43:24 yesterday, which is 2 minutes faster than our previous time.
