Workout: Extra conditioning, 1135-1215 (40 minutes)
In 30 minutes, AMRAP:
Press - 115
Reps: 169
@dagill2 - Here’s how it went down:
Took first rep of each set from the floor, so I got 34 cleans in as well. Did strict press for the first 10 sets, then push press for the next 24. Quickly settled into 5-rep sets with that, but tried pushing it in the second to last set and failed to lockout rep 6. Had about 30 seconds on the clock, so tried to get as many more in as I could, got 3, failed rep 4, set the bar down, and that was it: time expired.
Prior to this, I pressed 115 for 10 in a 5+ PR set last November, and I did 105 for 17+3 in single rest-pause set last December, so I figured 30 minutes of 115 would be a challenge. And it definitely was—I was huffing and puffing, feeling it everywhere by the end. But…
Even though I was using a fair amount of leg drive by the end, I’m wondering now if I could’ve hit triple digits with a higher weight (135, maybe?) because of that.
Maybe next time, haha!
