Thursday 21st - W3D4

1. Muscle Snatch 4 x 5 45/45/47.5/47.5kg - slowly getting better at these

2. Front Squat 6 x 6 90/100/100/102.5kg x 5/92.5/100 x 5

3. Deadlift 4 x 6 125/140 x 5/140 x 4/125

4a. DB Bulgarian Split Squat 4 x 6/6 30kg db's
4b. KB Swing 4 x 12 32kg
4c. Leg Raises 4 x 12

5. Squat Jumps x 10 into sprints 5rounds - legs like jelly at this stage




the next set felt like shit but looked better on the vid. In person the 6th rep felt like too much of an ask, on the vid it looked like it would have been comfortable.




Interesting session. I think the thought of this one was giving me nightmares. Prep has been all shit. Probably under eating this week, sleep was terrible last night. I knew it was gonna be a grinder going into it. The front squats were ok. When I messed up on the 102.5 - only doing 5, it felt like shit, but the vid looked a lot better than it felt. Really need to be mentally stronger - I guess this is payback for always working with 3-5reps.

The deadlift was a disaster. The first set was comfortable but again, the 5th rep on the next set was terrible. I was really running on fumes here. The next couple of sets were shit. I dropped to 125kg to just put 6 reps in the bank, this was comfortable.

The 30kgs on the split squats were the heaviest I could have gone without technique going to shit.

Tough, tough session. Disappointed with the deadlifts, but like I said, the build up to this session was sub optimal.
