-rest 60 sec-

3 tall box jumps from seated (take your time between reps)

Bounding went well. Only problem is seem to have is I don’t get a ton of bounce off the rebound so I land “hard” and low on the box.

Alt EMOM 10 min:

min 1: 5 BS

*choose a challenging loading for each and sustain across

225 & 295. I am highly suspecting my meniscus is torn. I’ll get an MRI after the open but my friend that’s torn both of his said my symptoms were the same. So I didn’t go crazy on the squats today as I did feel some discomfort. Luckily scoping the knee is pretty quick turn around I guess.

+

A1. 30 sec weighted sorensen hold x 4, rest 1 min

25# plate

15 STOH @ comp weight

20 TTB

50ft HSW

+

3 BS x 3, rest 2 min

*75-83%

295

+

Day 345 1/20/21

Day score 8: Definitely sore but few energetic

1/20

TBD – let’s either retest something here or do interval work at whichever workout you want more work on. Text me on Tues or Wed morning and we will figure this out.

DU C2B Retest – 6:20 but I think I I technically did better. I had way bigger DU sets and lost time overall because I had to walk way further to avoid the class. Only thing I’m wondering if I could improve other than tripping less is how to manage that set of 20. The other ones feel great and I can go unbroken but I’d like to hold on for that last set as well. Video below.

DU video

+

2-3 sets, each at strong effort:

400m run

10 goblet squats

10 box jump overs

100m single arm KB FC

10 goblet squats

10 box jump overs

-rest 3 min between sets-

3:43, 3:46, 3:46 – pushed the run harder than I probably will push the 800 at the event. Box jump overs felt way smoother today and the KB isn’t too heavy. I definitely did feel load on the hamstrings and quad though but I think I can pus. Through. HR and breathing were through the roof!
