Wednesday was a recovery day.  This will take some tie getting used to since I am a big volume person.  Bad habit from my ironman days.  Today's testing consisted of the following:


A.  Power clean - build to 1 RM
-rest 2 minutes-
B.  8 minute amrap @ 90% of A
-rest 5-10 minutes-
C.1  strict HSPU - 1 x amrap, rest 2 minutes
C.2  kipping HSPU - 1 x amrap,
So the max power clean was ugly. I was down 10lbs from earlier this summer. Then the 8 minute amrap weight was 162lbs. I did have 4 or 5 failed reps. My technique needs lots of work after seeing myself on video. But this is why I have hired Brandon to help me out. I ended up with 43 reps.

The HSPU's well dam they sucked. I am now able to get a few. Strict nothing. Kipping 3 yet 12 no reps(feet coming away from the wall). I have improved some since at the Maine Crossift Champs I got 10 HSPU's and last fall - nothing. But I still have a long ways to go.

I did get my AD 6 yesterday. I assembled it and tried it out for a few rounds of 20calories. Dam that really brings you to your knees. Looking forward to some fun times with that.
