Recovery:
A1. Ring Dips weighted @ 20X0; 2-3 x 3; rest 1 min
A2. Single leg DB Dead Lift @ 2020; 8-12/leg x 3; rest 1 min
B. 100 TGU - slow and steady for tech, not time - 16kg/12kg
C. Row 20 min @ Z1
AMRAP with my wife (famrap?) as per my ambition to do one outside metcon together every weekend. Today was done over stairs at the Uppsala castle.
20 min AMRAP of 30 double unders, down 1 stair and back with 40kg sandbag (2nd round 2 stairs before turning, until 4th round 4 stairs then it started over at 1 stair) for total double unders: 300
broke my buddy lee after fifth round and had to use cheap crappy one. Awesome workout in cold but amazing and sunny autumn weather.
A1. 45 - 55 - 70 A2. 45/h - 55/h - 55/h(8) * really wanted to work on balance; barefoot; when balance got wonky on 3rd round I called it a set. B. Substituted work on KB OHS.
A1. 3 x 3 with 20 lb vest A2. 12 reps with 50 lb db each hand B. 100 C. Done
Really dragging going into Friday night's workout. Woke up Sat morning feeling completely wrung out so rested instead of testing. Today's recovery workout was on the mark.
A1. 45(3), 70(3), 90(2) A2. 35(12), 50(12), 65(12) B. Completed 100 straight alt. each rep C. Completed, no idea what Z1 means. I was doing a laid back pace
A1.20#x3,30#x3,30#x3 A2. 35/hand x12, 53/hand x8/ 53/hand x8 balance more of an issue on right side than left B. 50 TGU @ 16kg. only did half because knees started to bother me. doing TGU on concrete garage floor is not to fun. C.4609m
Lugged my rings, 50# powerblocks, backpack, and 4 yr old to the playground for this one.
A1. 40#,50#,50#(couldn't stuff any more weight in backpack) A2. 30#,40#,40#/hand all 12/leg B. 100 reps +or- 10 reps may have lost track. C. Subbed Farmers walk/DBs in Front rack carry.
Notes: Did not properly warm up due to time constraints. Part 1 could have been a lot faster, K2E tough and down to singles pretty early, was not able to keep kip for long. Part 2 surprised myself with no misses! Could have took a few less breaths btwn sets. I believe these results would have been better without the day of sitting in the deer stand.
A1.20(3),25(3),30(3) A2.35#/hand, 12 reps all sets B.Done over about 20 minutes...5 at a time. C.No rower today, took a 30 minute trail walk with a vest.
Finally got my airdyne today. 200$, more than i hoped to spend but worth it. Shes old, but shes a beauty.
I did some weighted muscleups and supinated chin ups too.
Also did 10 minutes of jump rope singles, unbroken.
Will do getups and row tomorrow.
10-16 tester:
Time: 18:43
Pt. 1 - 13:09
3 hr rest
Pt. 2 - 5:34 (all UB)
I only did 50, 30 and 20 reps.
I made a huge mistake and had some milk Friday night -- wasnt even thinking about it -- and it made my chest super congested and very phlegmy. Woke Saturday morning and it was still the same.
So instead of driving my system into the ground I did a lower volume wod and only went at about 85%.
Quads were pretty sore today and those DB deads and jumping rope worked it out.
Just got back (7pm), from being away this weekend and had to do something.
Part 1 from yesterday
21:33 with row
Felt pretty gased and needed to break up the k2e way too much. I was hoping the moose, and hungarian partridge that I ate this weekend were going to give me super human abilities, but they didn't.
May hit up part 2 tomorrow, IF the gym gets it's wall balls back - they were lent out.
Yesterday's Subbed 500, 400, 300, 200, 100m run for bike 17:42- Knees to elbow killer
Part 2 after 1 hour rest 10:30
Today's A1. 70, 70, 100lbs A2. 53lbs/hand all 3 sets B. Turkish get up practice, GHD sit up practice, slow toes to bar practice will Row tomorrow due to time constraints
Rushed for time a bit so probably wasn't totally warmed up during part A..no time for rowing either. Got those tgu's done though...got more efficient as I went along.
Tomorrow will be a day for some serious mobility work.
those TGUs killed me :/.... do you guys recommend some starchy carbs (sweet potatoes etc) or something faster like chocolate milk after a work out like this?
Posting Late A. 45/70/90 B. 45#/hand x 10x3 C. Cut to 50 D. done ~ 4650m
DB Deads were suprisingly difficult today. TGU are brutal on my abs, cut down to make sure I recover well for next week. Row felt really good. I'm digging the 20-30 Z1 stuff for recovery...helping a ton. Brandon

@ Frazier O
ReplyDeleteMy understanding was always that Zone1 was a conversational pace, Zone3 was an all out sprint, and Zone2 was somewher in between.
So Z1 wld be a nice relaxing/recovery type pace
Totally destroyed today, but at least I ran to the evening class I was teaching at our box:
ReplyDelete16-17 min @ Z1-pace
