Deadlifts

Wednesday mornings are weightlifting days. There’s not a lot of different weightlifting training in CrossFit – deadlifts, clean and jerk, snatch, push jerk, push press, press, and squat – so things tend to repeat themselves fairly often.

Kettlebell Clean and Jerk

Today’s workout was 10 minutes of single kettlebell long-cycle clean and jerks, switching hands allowed, resting in clean position, but no setting the kettlebell down on the floor.

Squats: New PR of 220lbs

Noon’s weightlifting workout was squats – that means going below parallel, which is very hard!

Reps: 1-1-1-1-1

175-195-205-215-220

220lbs is a new PR for me.

Afterward we did a cool down workout of squats: 12-9-6 at 66% of our max. I did 145lbs. Thia is supposed to build up your strength.
