Second week of my first cycle of 5/3/1 is in the books. Loving it, but I’m making another adjustment.
I’m switching to the Jack Shit protocol. Instead of the accessory work, I’m doing a set of four 500m row sprints. This is what I planned to do starting in April (beginning of “conditioning-emphasis season” for me). But to the degree that I think it will help me in the Transformation Challenge and improve my conditioning for jiu-jitsu (a major priority) while keeping my training time low, I think I’m going to start “conditioning-emphasis season” a little early this year.
FWIW, today’s numbers (max rep set only)
OHP 85 x 10
deadlift 205 x 10
500m row sprints. I actually did 525m for reasons I can’t figure out; so these are my 500m split times: 2:15, 2:18, 2:13, 2:15
