Snatchin' - 4/19/09
Needed to get the lungs burnin' a bit today.
-Usual warm
-Snatch vo2max (15:15) 16KGx8 - 50 sets
This was work for me. Really had to focus on hinging at the hips and snapping when I fatigued with the right side. When I get 80 sets I'll jump up to the 20KG.
-Lev Block Curl 12.5LBSx5/5 - 2 sets
Felt strong w/ these today.
Need to stretch the left hip and calve today sometime.

Getting Back At It Again - 4/18/09
Selling our house, having a baby, and then having to move to the new house finally caught up to me. The last week or so I have been worn out. So...I took it easy and decided today was the day I needed to get a little work done. Here's how it went.
-The usual warm up moves
-SLDL 24/24KGx5/5 - 3 sets
Want to start working more with these and pistols. I think I really need the one legged work.
Alt w/
-2 KB Press 24/24KGx5 - 3 sets
Here's when the fun started...I just got a 37.5lbs blob and a 35lbs plate with a good hub on it.
Took me a few tries to get the hang of the blob but I got a good lift with each hand on video. I also got the 35lbs hub with 3 - 2.5lbs plates on it with each hand. Cool stuff!
-Ab Roll Out x5 - 3 sets
-40 Card Tear
That's it for today. Snatchin' tomorrow.

Tried Something New - 4/7/09
Early class today and up to help out a few times last night to help out made for a tired Carl today. So...quick power nap and short to the point training.
-Lower/Upper Body Twist, Shoulder Sweep, ASLR, Leg Curl w/ Ball
-Barbell Front Squat 135LBSx10 - 3 sets
First time for awhile with these. Just felt like trying them, felt good.
-Sledge Chop vo2max(15:15) 20LBSx7-8 - 40 sets
Not sure if this move elicits the correct vo2 response but it was a hell of a workout. I duck taped 2-5's t0 a 10lbs sledge and beat up a tire for 20 min. Fun stuff! Slick gloves made for some nice grip work as well.
That's it for today. Will stretch hips and low back later tonight.

More Snatchin' - 4/5/09
Tight in the back this morning so I figured I better move it around to loosen it up.
-Regular warm up
-Seated 2KB Press 24/24KGx5 - 3 sets
Wanted to try this to see how it felt. I sat on the ground w/ legs straight out in front of me. Felt good...left felt stronger than right which is weird cause with my standing 1KB press the right feels stronger.
-Snatch vo2(15:15) 16KGx8 - 35 sets
Workin' my way back up.
-Plate Pinch
Pretty happy w/ this today...a few PR's. I got 4 - 10's and a 5 to a straight leg stand. Thought I might get 5 - 10's but not yet. Also got a 35 and a 25 to budge off the ground...couldn't lock it out but it'll get there. I order a 37.5lbs blob today so that'll add to the fun when I get that as well.
That's it. Sort of a recovery session to loosen up the back...mission accomplished.

Just killed me. I want to work up to more of this but I was just wiped after these 2 rounds.

2-25's in one hand, 4-10's in the other.
That's it!

Back At It - 4/3/09

-Regular Warm w/ ham curls on ball
-S.S. Dead
225LBSx3
315LBSx3
440LBSx3
400LBSx3 - 2 sets

24KGx15/10/5 - 2 ladders(same deal)

24KGx5 - 2 sets
I took 2 min rest between first 4 ladders, 1 min between 5th and 6th ladder, and no rest for last part. Going down in numbers allowed me to stay explosive as I fatigued.

Felt good, a 52 card deck will get torn very soon. Then we'll see how I do on a deck of Bicycle brand.
-Ab Rollout x5 - 2 sets
-CoC #1 x5 - 2 sets(alt hands throughout the set)
Working over-crush on these. Getting closer to #2 but not yet.
