Strength

1) Every 45 seconds for 7:30 (22 total reps):

2 Banded Deadlifts @ 50% Bar Weight + 20% Band Tension

Notes: The bar should be loaded with 50% of the 1RM Deadlift. Band tension should equal 20% of 1RM at the top of the lift. Judging band weight and setup is explained in this DEMO VIDEO

2) Bench Press: 1X5 @ 85%, 1X3 @ 90%, 1X3 @ 95%, 2X3 @ 100% – based off heaviest set from 121116, rest 90+ seconds.

S:

2) 215-230-240-255# – No failures, no assistance. Much better than last week.

C:
C&J based on 300# max. TOUGH percentage for this WOD.
1: 245# x3
2: 245# x1 – smoked, dropped weight. Happy I got one after the burpees though.
3: 220# x2
4: 220# x2
5: 220# x1

Midline:
Done

Disappointed about the conditioning. I forgot to time the burpees because I was more focussed on trying to game my C&J’s and time so I could do it as RX’d. The weight was too much for me today and couldn’t risk taking 2 steps back on the shoulder rehab.

Conditioning: with Ring MU’s instead of bar. Last time we did bar MU’s with that rope climb, it fired up the shoulder. It was either the heavy C&J that day, the rope climb or bar mu’s. Cutting them out of the equation tonight.

Time: 12:49 – MU’s were pain free with very fast turnover. Decided not to tng thrusters today.
