Wednesday August 22nd, 2012

Another delicious serving of humble pie!! This workout hit my biggest weakness and also something that used to be a strength but is now a huge area of weakness (deadlifts).

A. Power Clean Cluster 1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1 x 3 sets
     - 1st set = 165, 2nd set = 175, 3rd set = 185
     - These felt really good actually and I definitely could have gone a bit heavier. Just the same, it's better that I used manageable weight and kept the form tight.

B1. Deadlift Cluster 1.1.1
     - These sucked. Had a really hard time keeping my back angle constant through the first part of the lift. 325 felt like 375. Don't know if these were harder because I could not use the bounce from touch 'n go reps??
   - Weights used: 295,305,315,325,325

B2. HSPU Cluster 1.1.1.1.1.1
     - These double sucked!!First 3 singles felt relatively OK. Then hit a wall and had to take extra rest to get through my sets. Also did not do full ROM. I had to use a 10# Bumper. I just really need to practice these a whole lot more.

C1. GHD Raise Drop sets 4.4.4 x 3 sets
     - First 2 sets @ 25,20,15. Last set @ 20,15,10. I felt a little sloppy on these today.

C2. Strict Press AMRAP @ 95# x 3 sets
     - 12 reps on each set. That's it....12 stinkin' reps!! No wonder I can't do HSPU's!! Right shoulder definitely felt a little impinged today. Probably have some small tears and need to work some more P.T.
