Strength
5RM Hang Power Clean (power or squat clean) - 65kg
Not too bad, probably could've gone slightly heavier but wanted to make sure of the five and there was a lot of cleans in the WOD so didn't want to do myself in for that.
WOD
For max reps:
A) 0 - 4 mins - Run or Row 400m, in remaining time AMRAP max rep power cleans (A - 60kg / B - 50kg / C - 40kg) - 23 reps

I went with rowing over running after the cramping I had on Saturday, didn't want to risk it again so soon with running but the rowing was tough in amongst everything else. Because I was just opening and closing my hips, that area felt so weak when I came to do the cleans and burpees. I went with B / 50kg on the cleans which was not too bad though and reps were not too bad in the end.
Absolutely floored me though, the 1600m rowing then everything else was just exhausting. I just wasn't feeling it mentally or physically last night and had to keep shouting "come on" at myself to keep going
Not sure about anyone else but I always find the first workout of the week the hardest! It's not really the first of the week as I train Mon, Tue, Thurs, Sat so Monday session is only two days after Sat but just feels like starting the week and psychologically it just always feels a bit harder. |
