Becoming Canis dirus - SvenG's Training Log

5x5/3/1 - c24w1d2

Monday - 24 April 2023
Workout: Extra conditioning, 1535-1600 (25 minutes)

(Modified) Garage Barbell 3 WOD - 3 rounds
In 3 minutes: 15 deadlifts - 225 lbs; AMRAP push-ups
In 2 minutes: 5 box jumps - 30-inch; 3 pull-ups

Now that is definitely “conditioning”!

Modified to replace AMRAP hand-release push-ups with regular push-ups (because… elbows!) and to include the box jumps and pull-ups in the 2-minute rest periods (because… just because!).

Used straps for rounds 2 and 3 of deadlifts (because… it’s not a grip workout!). Got all 15 touch-and-go reps in under 1 minute on every round, but I was looking for air at the end each one. Push-ups went: (1) 25, 10, 10; (2) 20, 10, 10, 5; and (3) 30, 10, 5, 10 for 145 total. Had roughly a minute of “real” rest after the pull-ups, during which time I got the straps situated for the next set of deads.

Finished up what would be the last set of push-ups (really wanted another 5 but ran out of time), went to my knees, timer expired, and then straight into a final round of box jumps and pull-ups.

I’ll be running a variation of this all week—tomorrow afternoon will be bench press.
