  4. Snatch 205
    C+j 275 not a PR but it’s the best I’ve done since tweaking my back in June
    Front squat 225,230,7/235
    Con 15:23 subbed ad for rows
    Could’ve definitely pushed the pace a little more but was more concerned with having enough gas left to actually do the hspus at the end

  5. No training today because of a competition. Went pretty well and looked like this BB Cycling was already paying off because the first event was a 2RM T&G Snatch. Ended up hitting 205# (210# is my 1RM) so I was pretty happy about that. I did have a Froning-rope climbing incident with a max L-Sit hold so looks like I will need to work on that. Overall a great day because I made the top 5 and the last workout, which included a Top 10 regional athlete here in the NorthEast.

    Thanks for making me better Rudy!

    BBG
    1) 185 (-20), could’ve walked up 195 but jerk blocks were in front of me. 205 had a slow motion fall forward. Just barely missed. 215 still seems light years away.
    2) 245 (-10), stopped here. Beat.

    Squats
    Did this a day late and still didn’t do what I was supposed to. 3rm FS @ 275(+5 PR!) this is also the heaviest FS I’ve ever tried/hit. Hit 270 last week so 10# in two weeks. Happy.

    CND
    Did this Sunday as well, 15:40. Hspu we’re simple. It’s crazy how bad I used to be at any hspu and now I do these easily. I still don’t have the faith to lower down tho. I drops feet and reset everytime. Pull-ups and rowing was terrible.

    • What is the competition standard for freestanding HSPU? For wall supported, I know you have to start and end locked out (i.e. can’t start from a headstand). Is the same true for freestanding?

      • I suppose it depends on the comp. I did all from a head stand. I’d assume head on the ground and locked out, under control, is the standard here.
