Fran

21-15-9
95# thrusters
Pull ups

Time - 8:57

Considering I did no jumping pull ups, this is significantly better than my last effort at Fran. But, I'm still essentially doing dead hangs since I don't have a good kip going. If I did, I think I'd have shaved at least 2:30 off this time as my thrusters were pretty good.

We followed up with:
100 ft. broadjumps
100 ft. walking lunges
21 wall balls
21 push ups
21 ball slams, 20#
100 ft. ball throw and sprints, 20#
21 back extensions

Total

275# back squat
135# shoulder press
365# deadlift

I still haven't been able to get the 385# deadlift I hit about a month ago. Also, Andy called me out (properly) on my shoulder press since I was doing a bit of a push on the unrack. My shoulder is feeling better, the last few days, so I think my max is more like #145 (down from the PR of 155#, which I'm assuming I was cheating on).

Total: 775

I participated in the evening class too, which had two metcon workouts:

200m run
21 kettlebell swings (1.5 pood)
21 push-ups
21 kettle-bell swings (1.5 pood)
21 sit-ups
21 ?
21?
21?

Time - 10:24

As you can see, I forgot several of the elements (and listed ones were not in that order). I need to post the day of the workout before I forget what we did!

50 double-unders
50 sit-ups
40 double-unders
40 box-jumps (don't remember for sure)
30 double-unders
30 burpees
20 double-unders
20 knees-to-elbows
10 decline push-ups (HSPUs Rx'd)
10 double-unders
1 rope climb

Time - 26:53
I'm just killed by the double unders. Once I get those, my times should go down quite a bit.

Shoulder work

Shoulder press 1-1-1-1-1 reps
Push press 3-3-3-3-3 reps
Push jerk 5-5-5-5-5 reps

115/125 (f)/125/135/145
125/135/145/155/165
135 (5)/145 (5) /155 (3) /165 (2) /175 (2)

I felt pretty weak when I started, probably due to a lingering sore shoulder. This manifested itself in a failed attempt on the shoulder press at 125 lbs., well below my max of 155 lbs. I felt better towards the end, though, and did get a rep at 145 lbs.

The push jerks felt good though. I think I should be able to break 200 lbs. soon on those. Mainly, I'm still trying to get the form correct, and I think I'll get a nice boost in weight once I do.
