Was having issues with my knee today. Mobilized for 40min before workout. Increased load across sets, but not by much from last time. Didn't want to blow out knee. Frustrating!
+
2+12, 2+10
Held split pace on row, not bad. Thrusters were a different story. Worked around knee pain. Contemplated substituting thrusters for wall balls because it was aggravating. Used a wider stance and it seemed to take care of the issue, so continued. Did quick singles on the snatch. Thrusters were the set back on this.

This was much better than the first. No pain, just fatigued. Went UB on most sets. Eventually broke on TTB.

Planned poorly today. Didn't get. Adequate rest btw sessions. I have family in town for the holidays, so trying to balance everything. Rested 10min then got after it. Grip set me back. Did what I could. Definitely could of used more rest btw sessions bc I was run down. Power output fell off each round.

Had fun with "Isabel!" Can't remember the last time I have done it. Went 15 UB then chipped away with 3's. Should of held on to the bar longer. Played it safe. Got more left in the tank. What's a good time anyway?

Did all snatches and cleans UB. Wasn't too bad. Had over 30sec to recover across all sets. Hip/knee were feeling good during training.

Midline piece was just what I needed. Toughest movement for me was the L Hold. Had a difficult time maintaining position while doing kicks. Legs wanted to drop every time. Substituted a medicine ball for the stability ball. We don't have any at the gym. 

Wasn't super pumped about the assault today. I gave everything that I had, but wasn't enough. I had no drive in my legs. Could only maintain wattage for first set. Took 3 minutes recovery between sets. Felt recovered, but after the first minute in my legs hit the wall and had no gas left in the tank. Had me feeling a little discourage. 

One of the most important aspects I have learned over the years of training is that you have more good bad days than the good days. Shake it off and move on to the next one.

Completed on Assault

Increased weight based off of last week. Body is feeling good after having a couple days off. 

Could feel a little pinch in knee on squats. Still was able to increase load compared to last week and sit deeper in the hole. 

Held prescribed pace across each set on row. Tried being aggressive and quick on movements. Still trying to gain confidence in knee/hip. It seems to be improving each time. 

Tried to go UB on the bar MU. Failed at 25 and finished it out. I think I can get it doe if I were to try it again. First time doing 30 bar MU for time. Was feeling good till rep 20, then hit the wall. 

Did full 20 min on assault. Held an average of 160 bpm. 

Cooled down with some soft tissue work on calf, hamstring, and quads. Static stretching on hips and low back.

Completed (Avg HR 164 bpm)

Increased load on bar based off of feel of hip/knee. No failed sets. Didn't catch bar low; worked on receiving bar higher. 

Squats went well. Better than expected! Never would of thought that I could be squatting over 200# without any pain this early on. Focused on control movement down, keeping midline engaged, and staying tall. 

Had a hard time with the thrusters. Was out of breath first couple sets in. Bugged my knee after a few sets too. Wall balls felt better on body. 

Took 30-60 seconds rest between sets on complex. Having fun with these!
 
Finally got my HR monitor. Averaged about 164bpm. Focused on breathing and tuned out on the assault.

Went UB on all snatches. Tried speeding up cycle time on bar. Used narrower grip than usual. Seemed to help increase grip strength and speed. Good amount of volume today!

Picked load based off feel of hip/knee. Load was challenging, but tried increasing last couple sets. Maybe use 245# across each set next time.

Got super grippy towards the end. Shoulders/triceps fatigued the quickest. MU battery has been burning out quicker than usual.

Used lifting straps for pulls. Weight was challenging each cluster set, so I kept the load the same across. Everything felt heavy today. I can't believe how much strength I have lost. Focused on speed of pull on deadlifts. Alternated between assault and row every 5 minutes. Held 275+ watts on assault and 1:55-2:00 split on the row.

Intervals on bike went a lot better compared to last week. Was able to handle wattage and recovery rate till the last two sets. Listened to what you said after last week; rested for a full minute between the last two sets. Legs started to feel like led. Held wattage all across each set. Average wattage was 392.
