IWT: Squat Cleans & AMRAP Push-ups

Thursday 5-19 OPT Day 181:

TRAINING:
3 squat clean heavy
rest 10 sec
AMRAP Push Ups
rest 4 min x 5
+
Airdyne sprints:
25 sec @ max effort
Rest 3:35 x 5

Training Outcome:
Squat Cleans and Push-ups:
225/80-235/60-240*/50-240*/45-245/46

Notes:
I had to do 2+1 on the 240. I got the first two, but my elbows dropped on the 3rd rep both times and I dumped it. Really focused on the 245 and got it. None of them were touch and go.

Push-ups were taxing by the end. I should have pushed it harder during the middle sets. I found myself just stopping. I was having to pike and do singles, but I could have kept going...oh well...live and learn.

Subbed Prowler/Plate pushes for the Airdyne Sprints...and they sucked!!

TESTING: 60 Bar-Facing Burpees, 30 OHS, 10 MUs

Wednesday 5-18 OPT day 180:

TESTING:
as many reps in 10 min:
60 bar facing burpees
30 OHS - 120#
10 muscle ups

Testing Outcome:
60 Bar facing burpees, 30 OHS, 8 MUs

Notes:
I hit the MUs with 3:15ish left...thinking surely I could get 10 MUs in over 3min, but it didn't happen. I missed the first rep. After missing the first rep, I had to go get a 35# plate to throw down because I set my rings too high and needed it to stand on to get a good grip.

I defintely felt the 200 Pull-ups and 200 rows I have done the last 2-3 days by the time I got to the MUs. I only did one double, the rest were all singles and had a couple of misses scattered in there. I was really hoping to get a complete round. I know no one posted on the MP a complete round, but if I can get within 2 reps of a complete round, I gaurantee there are some major firebreathers who probably hit 1.5 or more on this WOD.

Notes:
Really had a hard time getting going this am. The second set of 225 on the PP felt easy. I wasn't into it mentally the first time. Would have liked to go up another set or so, but I wanted to at least have a decent SJ. 270 went up really easy, but I lost my mental mojo for 285. Probably should have only went up 10# instead of 15#.

B. 8-6-6-5-4-(1+10 Ring Dips)
C. 200 SDLHPs in 4:24

Notes:
I went for the 3rd rep on the 250 and 260 but couldn't quite get it. The 260 was closer than the 250. I almost had my elbows through to catch it. Had I dropped into a squat clean I think I would have had it. I pulled it high enough.

Did an extra set of MU with about 2min recovery trying to get to an even 30 MUs but only got 4 UB. Did an extra to round things off.

I paused at 125 and 170 of the SDLHPs and lost a little bit of time.
