Back to Work

Race Follow-Up

Here’s the picture from the aforementioned jackass. That’s me ignoring him.

Workout

I’ve taken somewhat of a break over the last week. I went into the gym, but mostly kinda screwed around. I did some light overhead squats; some long, slow lunges; just enough to work my hips and shoulders loose. This week it’s back to work.

The goal of this next 13-15 weeks are three:

  1. Get my Back Squat back up to ≥ 335# (what it was before I tweaked my back)
  2. Get Marathoner’s Back Squat up to ≥ 225#
  3. Get lots of practice Snatching and Overhead Squatting

To do this, we’ll be warming up with lots of Power Snatches and then doing lots of squatting - 3-times/week - for the next several weeks.

Warm Up
5x Power Snatch + 5x Wide-Grip Press + 5x Overhead Press
@ 45#, 65#, 85#, 95#
