4x25

Training Log: Entry 2375

AM WORKOUT

Axle strict press
5xAxle
5x66
5x136
5x166
3x191
3x211
4x211 (push press)
9x166 (continental and strict press)

Notes: Mostly recovered at this point, but still just sore and beat.  I will see how pressing goes after the deload.  If it's still not in a good way, I might try a different 5/3/1 approach for it.

Chins (various grips)
14,13,12,11,10

Band Pull aparts
5x20

Notes: All performed between sets of pressing.  Going back to switching up the chin grips, but sticking with the super hardcore style still.  Seem to get some decent training effect from it.

Axle rows 186
2x36

Notes: First 18 per set without straps, next 18 with.

Dips
150

Notes: 70 unbroken in the first round.  130 with rest pause, then a break and 20 more.

Axle curls
1x100

General notes: Woke up at 196.4.  Almost out of the woods with the celebratory weekend.

PM WORKOUT

3 mile run w/ Mrs

Notes: Wife wanted to get in a workout and I figured why not.  86 degrees out and I haven't run more than 2 miles in over a year, because I'm really stupid.  No idea on time, but it sucked.

AM WORKOUT

(3) Axle Mat Pulls
5x136
5x226
1x276
1x366 (mixed grip)
1x456 (mixed grip)
13x506 (straps, rest pause, touch and go)
5x456 (straps, touch and go)
24 second DOH hold of 276

Notes: In-laws are staying over, so I didn't want to wake them with the deadstop set of 456.  Meant I kept it for touch and go, which was awful.  I was surprised at how well I did on the topset, because my body is still rocked from Murph.  Lotta pain.

GHR sit ups w/25lb plate behind head
1x8
2x7

Buffalo bar squats
5xBar
5x100
5x140
3x190
1x230

1x410
1x460

STRIPSET
12x140
12x230
12x320
12x230
12x140

Notes: After 300 air squats, I had little faith in my ability to move heavy weight.  The 460 was a total grinder.  This up and down stripset was a good way to maximize small weight.

General notes: Woke up at 196.0.  Eating out more this weekend; lot more sodium.

5x136
5x186

DB lateral/rear laterals 20
5x11

Notes: Performed between sets of bench.


GIANT SETS

Murph Hero WOD

1 Mile run
100 pull ups
200 push ups
300 air squats
1 mile run

54:43

Notes: Ran it in order, not broken up, and no kipping.  No tac vest (none offered), so I figured I could make it suck more by not breaking it up.  A solid challenge.  The final mile HURT.  I was running like the Frankenstein monster.

Ran the first mile in 7:58.  Took me 10 minutes to do all the pull ups, 10 to do all the push ups, 13 to do the squats, and then finished the final mile in 9 minutes and some change.

Woke up at 194.0, so at least I came into this light.  Now to find a new challenge.

AM WORKOUT

Buffalo bar squats
5xBar
5x100
5x140
3x190
1x230
1x280
5x10x320

Notes: Been wanting to do that for a while.  Actually seem to be sticking to my ME-RE alternate each week approach.  I think it's a viable way to go about things.  This wasn't super challenging, but still taxing in it's own right.  I might throw in a widowmaker at the end.

GHR
4x10

Standing ab wheel
4x8

Neck harness 45
4x25

Notes: Performed between sets of squats.

General notes: Woke up at 196.2.  No reverse hyper today; don't know if I cut it out to save my lower back for Murph or just a lack of motivation.
