  1. 2 x 8 at 40kg
    2 x 5 at 43kg
    1 x 5 at 46kg
    Felt pretty good!
    Then did 35kg on the bar with muscle up practice – 8:13

  2. 2 x 8 @ 40kg
    2 x 5 @ 43kg
    1 x 5 @ 46kg

    32.5kg clean & jerks. messy jerk technique – cheers for the pointers Rosey! felt like I got better as I went along. used lowered rings for MU progressions. finished in 7:04. would attempt 35kg next time to try & improve/get used to jerking a bit heavier. have a tendency to press when it gets heavier – which is silly because i’m pretty sure this is harder?!

    Good session this morning :)

  3. A: 2 x 8 @ 100
    2 x 5 @ 110
    1 x 5 @ 120

    B: 50kg – still not feeling the movement properly. MU progessions – 9:11.

  4. Not sure what’s harder, lifting repeated heavy weights, or trying to figure out what 65% of 85kg is before 6am!

    A: 2 x 8 @ 55kg; 2 x 5 @ 60kg; 1 x 5 @ 70kg (this was supposed to be 65kg, but I added up wrong and decided to just lift it anyway).

    B: 50kg and dodgy muscle up progressions : 9:13

  5. A: 2 x 8@40kg, 2 x 5@45kg, 1 x 5@50kg

    B: Started with 35kg but was SUPER messy so dropped to 30kg after 2 reps in the 4 round. 35kgs really seems to be my crunch point for cleans and front squats. Finished 8:27 with MU practice on rings

  6. A: 2 x 8 @ 130kg
    2 x 5 @ 140kg
    1 x 5 @ 150kg – V. tough on the legs

    B: got to 1 C&J in round of 3 – scaled MU’s

  7. A. 2 x 8 @ 65kg, 2 x 5 @ 70kg, 1 x 5 @ 80kg.

    B. Timed out at 2 muscle ups in the round of 3. Scaled to 50kg C&J.

    Thanks to Jamie for pushing me to stay with muscle ups. Prob would have scaled back if I wasn’t pushed. Glad I stuck with them.

  8. A: 2×8 @ 80; 2×5 @ 85; 1×5 @ 90
    B: made it to the rings on the last round but buzzed out

    Love muscle ups they’re good fun and the movement feels really good. Timmy E your muscle up’s are super efficient

  9. A:

    2 x 8 @ 90,
    2 x 5 @ 100,
    1 x 4 @ 105 (failure)

    B: Took it easier, focusing on technique.
    50kg, still learning muscle ups, so feet were on the ground.
    Time – 6:37.
