Tough Monday!
Let's start with I'm exhausted from laying sod and shoveling dirt ALL DAY Saturday. Seriously Exhausted, even after a half day of rest. The weight for the workout didn't seem that daunting at first glance, but that's a whole lot of thrusters, let me tell ya!!
For time:
20 Power snatch (Men 95#, Women 65#)
40 Thrusters
60 Hang power cleans
My time: 12:49, Rx
I did the snatches in two sets of 10. My intent with the thrusters was to start with a set of 10, but I ended up doing 8 sets of 5. It was the only way I could mentally get through it without breaking down. Every time I picked up the bar I thought, "okay, I'll do 8 this time" and every single time I did 5. Ha ha!! I did the cleans in sets of 10 and tried not to rest too much between. Didn't mind the cleans at all, just got super winded. All in all, a nice start to the week with just barbell work. But it was tough!
Strength was the complex of 2 power snatch-4 thrusters-6 hang power cleans - without putting the bar down.
My loads: 45-55-65-70-75
