Summer Crush Qualifier Week 1, Squat Clean 2 RM

6-Jul
AM
5 rounds for time:
200m farmers walk 1.5 pood
40 airdyne calories
20 sit ups


Replaced with Summer Crush Games online qualifier week 1 workout:
AMRAP in 8 minutes
6 power cleans (95lbs0
9 H/R burpees over bar
12 KB Ground to OH
5 rounds + 7 reps
Not sure motivated going in.  Did little to know warm-up except for a few reps of each movement. 

445PM-Motivation low, but frustration with low motivation also low-mental growth.  :) 
A. Squat clean; build to a 3rm
125, 145, 155, 165, 170x2
Squats are most certainly getting stronger.  Was not catching the cleans ideally-forward on the toes, low on shoulders, etc, but still able to muscle out those reps.  Just not for the 3rd rep at 170.  This is a 2rep max and the 165 equals my TnGx3.  
 
B. Amrap unbroken thrusters 95# x5; rest 90 seconds
12, 12, 12, 12, 10...did I mention my motivation was low?? Obviously not true AMRAPs when I can maintain each set.  
C. "tabata" air squats
20x7 sets 19 x set 8.  20th wasn't quite up when the clock hit 20. 


90 minute hike very Z1. :) 

Week Recap: Busy week with friends staying with us & opened the gym Tuesday-Saturday. Pleased to be able to hit a squat clean PR on the 12th session in 6 days.  Excited and ready for tomorrow's rest day!
