StrengthWOD: 1/26
Well, maybe I'm a bit tired from the meet. Everything feels heavy...Motivation is down. Classic "Dummy, take a break. This is the offseason," scenario.
Tip of the day: Do the obvious thing. Don't overthink.
1. Some warm-up, although likely not enough.
2. Clean pulls, 5*3 at 300
3. 2/3 squats down to chains
Here, you squat down, set the weight on the chains, pause, then drive up. It's not quite full range of motion.
I wanted to just do 315 for 5. However, when I walked over to the rack, there was already 150lbs of chains hanging on the barbell. So I just left it on. Ended up working to 340 for 5 with the chain. No, a 500 pound squat for 5 isn't that light.
Always learning this lesson.
4. Floor press, 5*10
I ended with 275. My arms, much like everything else, are blitzed.
5. 500m Ski-erg, 1:58
I should do more for conditioning, but I didn't care tonight. I wanted to wrap it up.
We'll get back in the groove. Right now, the keyword is "offseason."
