Thrusters

2 RM

I worked out with John and we did 65#, 85#, 95#, 115#, 135# PR!!

Max reps in 2 minutes (Fitness 75/55#, Rx 95/65#, Rx+ 135/95#)

I used the Fitness standard and got 19 reps at 75# (9, 6, 3, 1)

Helen

3 Rounds of
400m Run
KB Swing 55#/35#
12 Pull-ups

I was shooting for Rx, but after grabbing the 55#KB, I opted for 35# for the swings.  Runs were slow around 2:30, first 2 rounds of KB swings were unbroken.  All the pull-ups were broken with 3-2-2 or 3-2 and then singles.

I finished the first round around 4 min, second round at 8:40 and the third round at 13:17.  I felt pretty good about the effort and want to work on heavier KB swings and unbroken pull-ups.

The last time I did this workout was on July 27, 2015 when I finished in 11:32.  This was about 2 minutes slower, but still ahead of the first time I did the workout on June 1, 2015 when I finished in 14:03.
