when is your Tough Mudder? I am entering in one this weekend! EEK! 2 more days![/quote]
October 6th. It’s about time that I start actually training for it specifcally I guess. Have you done anything special to train for yours?
Yes I had increased my running and was training like a bitch and then I came down with a chest infection which in turn left me with bruised and strained ribs 
Horrible timing. So my training of late has been resting. lol!
I decided to heal up as best as possible (still not fully healed yet) and then just giver shit! (hopefully my past fitness level will be enough 
I am excited and scared…butterflies and all!
Good luck with yours!
One thing mentioned to me was to try and run on more unstable ground. Also lots of mobilty stuff…

Well shit, that will only add to the challenge! Good luck with it, you’ll be fine. Thanks for the tips in unstable ground running. I need to look around for some better places than the streets, around here.

8/15 C2W3D3
Deads
135x5
185x5
225x5
275x3
320x5
365x3
405x0x3 Pissed, but later realized I can blame that on being super low carb the past few days, CBL prep phase again. Oh well, only time the numbers matter are on the platform.
Quit after that, had some life to attend to.
8/16 Early AM Assistance make-up
Done circuit style
SSB GM 130x10x3
BB Row 155x10x3
One leg hip thrust/glute bridge (the one where back and feet are on the floor-hammy blaster) BWx12x3
Plank x 60sec x 3
Took fat dog on a short jog around the block, turned into jog/walk intervals since that’s all she could handle.
I need the bucket. I drink the piss because I don’t wanna be a bother to anyone with my constant asking for beverages.

lol lol
Went 3.25 miles this morning with a 20# sand bag in a pack, jogged/walked/ran intervals with it. Sucked, but will do again.
Couple hours later, did the following:
C2W3D4 ohp day
6510
7510
95*3
1105
1203
1351+ I hit 5 reps (had several left in me), and wanted to see if my max has gone up, so then did
1553 was 1rm when I started up 531
1751
1850 Got greedy, went for an all time PR tie, so not worried about it. Happy enough with the 175
Klokov Press
Bar12
6510
858
958
Rear delt destroyer
30s/15s/10s x 60/30/20 x 2 sets. Delts on fire!
Done.
Easy deload week
Had to get up stupid early for work, decided to get up even earlier and just get the session over with, since I didn’t get to it yesterday
Squats
955
13553
1655
195*5
Pvc rolling/stretching
That’s it
8/21 Bench deload
95x5x4
125x5
155x5
All paused and explosive reps
Bench unrack/holds
225x30seconds
275x30seconds
300x30seconds default PR lol
*Holding a heavy bar at arms length for 30 seconds is rough. Hopefully this will make heavier weights feel lighter, so as I approach higher bench numbers I won’t get that “Oh fuck this is heavy” thought before an attempt.
Pullups
BWx10
+25x3
BWx10
*Haven’t done more than 5 in a while, felt good to hit more reps.
~20 minutes HIIT, sprints with kids in a really heavy ass jogging stroller. Combined weight 110#+
You know what’s better than holds at arms length?
Pushing the loaded bar against pins as hard as possible for time.
So do a rep and instead of locking out slam the bar under the barholder and try to break it

Word? So right under lockout height then? Sounds pretty solid, will try sometime. When I break my rack though from being so ridiculously strong, you’ll buy me a new one. kthx

Yeeeaaa I will buy you a new one.
They’re called iso metric holds. You can probably find something in the search box if you wanna do some research.
