Strength and Volume Cycle 3, Week 4

Monday 12-17

TRAINING:
A. Clean and Jerk - 2 + 1 x 3
135-165-185-205-225-245-245*-245* (*missed Jerk)
B. Volume Squat - 10-10*-8*-8*-6* (*belted up)

+
5 rounds of:
5 HPC - 225#* *straps
10 TnG Box Jumps - 20"
15 CTB Pull-ups* (Switched to 10 COVP PUs after 2nd round)
20 Push-ups (kicked my butt)
rest 3 min b/t rounds

Notes:
Not a stellar day today...mentally weak on the Jerk portion of the C/J. Squat was good though, but the IWT I put together owned me. The High-ish volume push-ups under duress kicked my butt...and I had to go from doing CTB Pull-ups to COVP and decrease volume from 15-10 after the second round. They were starting to bog me down. But...all my Box jumps were TnG and UB.

Notes:
Moved ME FS to Friday in order to get a good DL pull in. Still didn't do as well as I hoped. Wasn't dialed in and back was a little tight and "off" feeling on the right side...might have impacted the mental side of it a bit.
