    Group mob

    OHS 3RM
    35(WU) – 55 – 75 – 85 – 100 – 105 (x2)

    Theoretically I should be able to hit 115 based on my 1RM, but legs were not 100% today, so didn’t want to push it.

    Pullups…tried negatives, they were rough. So, did ring rows at far more horizontal than I’ve ever tried, and they felt hard, but good. Need to work on these way more often.

    Tabata Grasshoppers
    Total = 84

  15. Open Gym

    Sumo Deadlifts x 5

    45-65-95-115-120(1 snatch – didn’t bother squating it) – 125(f for snatch)

    120# is PR for snatch

  16. OHS x 3 to 155#
    No PR but I am glad the shoulder could handle it.

    Did X-over Symmetry instead of Pullups

    4th set, jump up with 10 sec hold on way down

    Tabata grasshoppers

    A great one to come back to after being gone for the past 2+ weeks. Challenging, but not a too painful! It was fun to work out with the 5 p.m. crew for a change.

  20. OHS 3RM
    85-105-125-145-155#
