The week 09/24/2010 to 9/30/2010

09/26/2010

I was still recovering from a 23 hour work day so I laid around doing nothing for a while.  Eventually I got up the energy to go on a hike with Kelly and Ryan.  We hiked up Mt. Nittany which is about 1.5km straight up.  So overall the distance was about 2 miles in English.

9/27/2010

I was disappointed that I could not compete in the IKFF Nationals so I decided to see how well I would have performed. I chose my favorite the Long Cycle Clean and Jerk (LCCJ) for 10 minutes.

Using 2 20kg
59 reps in 10 minutes

I was working on surviving the 10 minutes more than going for a number.  I am somewhat frustrated that I put up 20 fewer reps than my competition in March.  I was satisfied with my control and the feeling I could push through at least one more minute at the end.

I am thinking about venturing into the biathlon one day so I tested my snatch.  I gave myself approximately 10 minutes of rest after the long cycle.

20 kg
I started with the left.  63 reps switching to the right with about 45 seconds left on the clock
Finishing on the right. 63 reps putting the bell down about a minute early.

The highlight of the snatch set was the fact I did not tear my the center of my palm, which has been a problem for me.  Thanks to Mike and Kim "Stickler" Stefano for helping me fix that.

As far as training goes I was satisfied overall.  Next week I would like to make 5 minutes with the 24kg's.

I decided to work up the energy for pre a work run.  The goal was to see what my 3.15 mile is time for the upcoming Warrior Dash.

Murphy and I utilized the golf course for a night time run.

3.2 miles
7.6 mph average
25:35 minutes

I was in yet another funk so I decided to get swinging.

30/30 Swings 16kg
100/100 16kg
5 min/5min 24kg one arm long cycle 43L/43R

5 reps of Rack/Lockout work 15 sec rack holds then 15 sec overhead lockout 24kg.
I was feeling the discomfort in the overhead and the rest in the rack.  I need a lot of work finding a nice rack

2 rounds of 1min/1min 24kg swings
