Air Force Workout

I haven’t worked out in a week because of a big project at work and other things complicating my life, so tonight’s WOD was looking good as I really like clean and jerks.

The WOD I thought I was going to do:
Do 1 clean and jerk every minute for 30 minutes.
Use 70 to 80% of max [...]

Overhead press: New PR @ 125lbs!!

Today’s warmup was the overhead press:

5-5-3-3-1-1-1

My weights:

75-85-95-105-110-115-125 (new PR!!!)

125lbs may not seem all that heavy, considering that one of the younger 20-something guys was pressing 250lbs, but it was a new PR, which is the only thing that counts for me!

As many rounds as possible…

…or AMRAP. In a sense, this workout seems less intense for me because there’s a finite time limit – in this case 12 minutes. With most workouts you take as much time as required to finish, whether it be 10 minute or 30. At least with AMRAP, everyone has the same amount of time, and [...]

WOD: Pull ups, push presses, and box jumps...

…and that was after we did heavy squats.

This was my 3rd time doing the Russian Squat Challenge.  This time it was 2 set of 2 reps at my 1 rep max of 225lbs. Some of the younger guys were going all out for the squat, but I’ve got to pace myself. I might have gone [...]
