Shoulder work

17:00

Shoulder press 1-1-1-1-1
Push press 3-3-3-3-3
Push perk 5-5-5-5-5

For loads: 155, 185, 205

3 rounds of:
7 Overhead squats @ 95 pounds
7 Burpees  (w/ jump over bar)
28 double unders
For time: 5:22

Daily report
  • Body: Good.
  • Sleep: 8 hours.
  • Nutrition: Good.
  • Notes: Good shoulder presses, felt strong on the jerks. Had to power clean every rep to the rack which was a bit training for the push presses. Overall, a strong WOD. Would have done 5 rounds and heavier OHS on the metcon but was being pressed for time.
  • Cool link of the day: More evidence in support of fasted training. It baffles me how people buy into the belief that there is some sort of "protein window" where you need whey before and after workouts. There is a compelling body of research showing that fasting after training allows a better hormonal response for recovery.
