PR

I don’t think I will ever get tired of being able to type PR.

But first, the workout.  12 minute AMRAP:

  • 9 deadlifts @ 165lbs
  • 12 hand-release push-ups
  • 15 box jumps @ 24”

Felt pretty good.  The weakest part of these were the hand-release push-ups.  The slowest were the box jumps.  I am starting to find a better rhythm to where I can hop up and pop back down quicker.  The key is to not destroy my shins.  Thankfully today there was no shin destruction from box jumps.  Nearly got 6 rounds but my upper body gave out from the push-ups. 

Post-WOD: Squat 5-5-3-3-2

  • 165 x 5
  • 185 x 5
  • 205 x 3
  • 235 x 3
  • 265 x 2
  • 285 x 1
  • 305 x 1

I felt good at 265 and realized I should have started heavier than I did.  Put a little more on just to further and hit 305, which is a new PR for me.  I know I had gas in the tank to go heavier than 305.  I think I will plan some lifting days to work on strength and work a few heavy reps in and plan on maxing out in a few months.
