Sweet Potato Fries were a nice treat after lunch to recover from a brutal Squat and Lunge day! As for the soda, well that's not the goal I'm working on presently and "diet mountain dew does taste more like regular mountain dew"...(wonder if I can get any sponsorship for plugging the product?).
SWOD: Planche Push Up practice x 30
Metcon: 5 rounds:
-400 m Run *
-15 Sumo Deadlift High Pulls 95/ 65
*If raining you can sub 500m Row or 50 Double Unders
The SWOD is not for time, but for doing 30 good reps at the most difficult progression for you. This is a progression exercise to eventually work up to a Planche, which can be found with description and video here
For the metcon, the best advice is move fast to stay warm!

Ok so I must have been bothered yesterday by not trying more weight on the snatch cuz I had a dream last night about that workout. Tha bar was wobbly, the weights wouldn't stay on tight, I had fluffy things on the bar that kept getting in my way! It was a frustrating dream! I guess that means I need to try it huh?
ReplyDeleteHey how did the planche practice go? Looks daunting....

ReplyDeleteI agree with you Brad, I can tell I am getting more depth after only 8 days. I am probably about 1 abmat in depth, but am not using one, so I can shoot for the floor!
PS When I first read your post, I thought you meant 4 full range planche pushups! LOL
