6/4/13 - squat/pull & wfd

Training#1 @ 4a

Hang clean up to 305x1, 225x5
Squat up to 475x1 no belt/wraps, then 525x1x3 w/ belt/wraps, drop to 405x6
4" deficit pull up to 525x1x2 no belt, add belt for a third single
RDL 315x5, 365x5, 425x5 superset with 36" box jump triples between sets

Solid first session back after a deload. Everything felt a bit heavier than I was expecting but I feel wrecked and awesome at the same time right now. I was really hoping to push this cycle up to 585 for three singles but I can feel already that 525 is getting close to my top end. If I can get to 555-565 I'll be happy but it's going to take some work. Legs were toast on the 405 rep out. Was looking to get 10, just didn't have the mental drive to finish it. Pulls felt solid. After pulling from a 4" deficit, moving to the RDLs the first pull off the floor felt like such little ROM, lol. I can already feel how pulling from the deficit is helping my tech and drive off the floor without the box.


Training#2 @ 12p

56# wfd
*one turn x10, best 37
*full x12-15, best 43

One turns felt off, again. Just working the finish mainly. Fulls felt really good. Changing things around slightly. Getting my aggressiveness back with the 56 as well. Sinking more and reaching for a longer push on both the sprint and the finish. Starting my turn when the weight is between 1:00 & 2:00 which puts high high point just right of 12:00. This lets me sprint harder without worrying about drifting left too far. Still need to be mindful to keep the low point behind my right leg at the start or I will drift too far left on the sprint and forward on the first turn. Need to remember to keep weight on my left side in the back during the cast as well to prevent me from drifting too far left on the first turn. Good sesh.



Side note: this comes a day late as on Sunday I bought a big play-set for my kids and spent all day putting it together and didn't get it finished so I got up at 5am this morning to put it together. Finished it tonight. The main house part being on the pavers is just temporary. Makes it easy for my wife to see the kids while she's inside cleaning or taking care of the baby or whatever awesome mom stuff she does during the day while I'm at work.
