Today is Saturday and I am some what behind in keeping up with my blog.  The week was very busy with extra school meetings, my wife's school meetings and my youngest and his football games.  So I will post what the rest of the week was like.

Wednesday: Rest Day which I am still adjusting to regularly scheduled into my training.  I did work on some 50% of my 1RM for the hang clean and hang snatch.  I followed up with some rowing as well - about 2500meters.

Thursday: An extra long day at school plus severe rain prevented me from doing my AMRAP work since my box jumps are completed on a large tire outside.  So I did complete my squat clean cluster work: I started at 145, 155 and ended the last 2 rounds at 165.  The sleeves are working out great.  For my push press 2RM I ended up at 145. I found that as the weight gets heavier I tend to lose the push jerk.  Need to work on that for sure.   I ended up doing some interval work on the AD instead.

Friday:  More heavy rain so I did the front squat work along with some back squats.  Kept the back squats at 175 and worked on form and depth.  For my front squats I did them from a below parallel box again.  My 5th set of 3 was completed at 215.  I finished with 20min on the erg - alternating some hard and moderate pieces.

Saturday:  Didn't workout until 5pm due to games.  Started with the snatch work on EMOM.  Started with 75lbs.  I only increased by 5lbs so I could work at this for a while.  I ended up getting to 125 some what easy.  I got 130  - but it was very ugly.  I then did the 3 RM TnG for the snatch.  I ended up getting 120 for 3.  Again my ability to go heavy is hampered due to my form.  I then did the following:

- 50 WallBalls with a 24lb ball
- 30 Hang Cleans @135
- 50 Wallballs
- 30 Shoulder to overhead @95
My time was 12:45.  The wallballs with the 24lb ball continue to be a challenge.

I spent some time watching some of the Games events from the 55-59 age group.  Some very impressive athletes for sure.  I want to gain some muscle mass - ideally get up to 185.  That will take some work since I want it to be lean mass.  I am currently about 175 - highest ever for me.

Alright looking forward to my next 2 weeks of training.
