Monday & Tuesday – 7/28/2025 & 7/29/2025

7/28

A – TNG power cleans – 3 reps every 30 sec x 4, rest 2-3 min x 4 sets

155–165–170–180 – things got a little sloppy on set 2 so that changed my trajectory of loading plan, but I was more locked in on set 3 and felt pretty good

B – Dbl DB push presses – accumulate 50 reps @ 50lbs/hand in as few sets as possible

15–17–13–5 – obviously by hitting that larger number on the 2nd set I could’ve done a better job of warming up for the first set, I also didn’t track rest time, but it wasn’t a crazy long time. 

+

For time

8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 reps each

Toes to bar

Kipping HSPU

3:53

rest 5 min

For time

8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 reps each

Chest to bar

Wallballs @ 30lbs

4:23

TTB felt decent, hspu felt a little off, the transition for hspu back to TTB I got a little dizzy on some of them and that slowed down my transition time. The wall ball piece, felt like it was a lot faster than that, CTB felt better today than they have been feeling but the 30lb wall ball gave me a couple of problems. Not the weight but I didn’t catch several of them cleanly and lost it forward or dropped it

7/29/2025

A – Banded back squats – 3 reps EMOM x 8

185

B1 – DB goblet squats x 15 @ 80-90lbs, rest 90 sec

50’s

C – 1-arm DB OH walking lunge x 50ft (switch hands at 25), new set EMOM x 5

This started out smooth, around 30-32 seconds and set 3&4 felt like I was trying to rush things a little and got a little sloppy. This was way more fatiguing than I expected it to be

D1 – Ant tib raises x 15-20, rest 1 min

done

D2 – Bent knee calf raises x 15-20, rest 1 min x 3 sets

Called it at 5, it was really freaking HOT, and I did this at 2pm, but that wasn’t the main reason i called it. IN the 5th set, I could feel my running mechanics were starting to fade a little bit and I felt that irritation on my hamstring. Going into this I wasn’t going to push the 85-90% effort, this is the best my knee/hammy has felt in 2 months so didn’t want to force that issue, but was trying to hit each 800 around 4 minutes, but the 4th round I dropped outside of that. I did this on the track and the heat was amplified.

Monday 7/7/2025 – Friday 7/11/2025

7/7
A1 – TNG power snatch x 7 unbroken reps @ 135lbs, rest 10 sec
A2 – Power snatch x 7 singles for smooth speed @ 135lbs, rest 4 min x 2 sets
This is the perfect set up for me to build some confidence with snatch cycling at this weight. It was hella tough but just trusted some positions and towards the end just grip and rip
B – OHS @ 22X1 tempo x 3 reps, rest 2 min x 5 sets
*stick around 125-135lbs, and keep working that narrower grip position
I went with strict press grip….i got video but camera angle was poor so can only see bottom position. But I do feel all the ankle/calf work i am putting in is paying off.
+
For time
50 toes to bar
100ft dbl DB OHWL @ 50lbs/hand
50 chest to bar
100ft HSW
This was bottlenecks all over the freaking place. 19:26 – i think the first bottleneck was all of the delicious holiday food and time in the sun over the holiday weekend. I did not drink a whole lot but enough to throw off some hydration balance. The paddle time, the sun time and lots of not normal foods. On to the workout…I did want to see my TTB capacity so i came out very aggressive and it bit me hard 15/15 with short breaks then an 8 and chipped away. Lunge was just hard. CTB confidence and trust was low and hsw was survival.

7/8
Gait prep (go all the way through this as if we were going to run, and try to prep that hamstring tendon well)
+
Every 3 min x 15 sets
Row 500m
*same targets and splits as last week, denser
My numbers were very similar, maybe a tick off last weeks average time, but I will say I felt like my effort last week might have been at a 8 or 9/10 RPE, and this week felt more like a 7 or 8 to hit those numbers so even though data might not show even with more density it did feel waaayyyy easier.

7/9
A – Every 2 min x 6 sets – High hang snatch x 1/Below knee snatch x 1
*start this around 135lbs, build every 2 crisp makes
135 — and i should have made smaller jumps, 145–155 and missed 160 so i went back to 150
B – Squat snatch triples from floor – 4 sets to find tough load for the day, all 3 reps completed within 25 sec window
155–160–165–170
C – Power clean – 10 TNG reps @ 155-165lbs, new set every 2 min x 3
D – Thruster x 1/Front squat x 3/Thruster x 1 – new complex every 2:30 x 5, build to heavy load for the day
195 was my last successful lift, missed the last thruster at 205 but it was more a poor rerack from the front squat to the thruster
E – 1-1/4 BB hip thrusts x 6 reps, rest 2 min x 4 sets
245

7/10 – OFF

7/11
A – Push press – build to strong single

new set every 10 min
This was a fun piece…..tried different wall ball strategies but should’ve gone for UB on every set just to see how well i recovered. Only did so on the last set

For time (12 min cap)
30 snatch 135lbs
30 Shuttle Runs (OR 60 cal echo)
30 clean and jerk 135lbs
24 C&J…started out a bit too hot with the snatches, since I know this is a little weakness from cycling at this weight, I wanted to be aggressive but was too aggressive. Also kept in the run as I wanted to see how it felt and it felt ok but I didn’t push it too hard. Steady and smooth and just didn’t have much time when I got back to the barbell. Which was a good sense of urgency to just grab the barbell and just go and not think about it until the clock ran out.

Also, quick little reminder, I have a fun partner comp on Saturday July 19th. Very fortunately there are not events that will be heavily taxing on the hamstring so will be able to get through that weekend with no mental stress over worrying about that.

Tuesday 7/1/2025 & Wednesday 7/2/2025

7/1

Gait prep (go all the way through this as if we were going to run, and try to prep that hamstring tendon well)

+

Every 3:30 x 15 sets

Row 500m

*start this at 1:56-1:58, and try to get marginally faster with each one (like on the range of .2-.3 sec/500m faster)

1:57.7—1:56.3—1:55.8—1:55.4—1.55.0—1:54.5—1:53.5—1:53.4—-1:53.0—1.51.7—1:51.1—1:50.4—1:50.2—1:49.1—1.46.7

125—145—155—160

B – 30 1-arm KB hang snatches @ 24kg, rest 3 min x 4 sets

*switch hands every 5 reps

done

C – Box squats – 6 reps every 2 min x 6 sets

*set this up at parallel and challenge the loading/endurance here

235 across – was pretty diligent on not spending any time on lockout feeling like a greater challenge with time under tension

D1 – Single arm BB suitcase deadlift x 6 into single arm farmer carry x 30ft, rest 15 sec bt arms, 1 min after both

75

D2 – Single leg BB hip thrust x 5/side into double leg BB hip thrust x 10, rest 2 min x 4 sets

95 first time 95 has felt controllable with single leg work

Monday 6/30/2025 – OHS Video

6/30
A – TNG power snatch x 5 unbroken reps, rest as needed building to tough set for the day
155
B – OHS @ 31X1 tempo x 3 reps, rest 3 min x 5 sets
*challenge yourself to go a little more narrow on grip than you usually would, lets strengthen the overhead position
Excited for this because I definitely am not where I want to be nor am I where I think I need to be. 125—135—145—155—165

AMRAP 12 min
12 1-arm alternating DB snatches @ 50lbs
50ft 1-arm DB OH walking lunge (switch hands at 25ft)
48 DU’s
50ft HSW
3 rounds – the DU were a little uncomfortable, maybe about a 2 out of 10, I don’t want to classify as a 3, but definitely effected me more mentally than physically. Not a great handstand walk day either. Surprisingly, I felt very little issue from lunges so that is a good sign. But this double under situation does make me a little nervous for the Friday session with 300 DU if I feel the same way.
