There Will Be Sweat

Probably some blood too. No tears though. Never tears.

CFSB Day 130

Nice little 6am with just one other fella today. Started with 2 min on the rower and then warmup 1:

  • 15 Hollow Rocks
  • 15 Front Squats (45lb)
  • 10 Pushups
  • 7 Strict Pullups

Did some clean drills after that and started warming up the clean. The goal was to find a heavy single. Here’s an approximation of my work sets.

Cleans

  • 3 x 135lb
  • 3 x 155lb
  • 1 x 175lb
  • 1 x 195lb
  • 7 x 1 x 215lb

There were two failed attempts at 215 and most of the successful cleans were dirty. I just couldn’t get my shit together today. Power cleans were fine but when the weight got heavy enough for a full clean, I was getting the bar high enough but I couldn’t get under it in a solid position. Very frustrating.

The accessory work today was just to spend some time working on front lever progressions. Started with a few 5 second holds at a very slight angle, then worked up to some single leg holds, and a couple of full holds with a spot. That shit is hard.
