This workout was probably in my worst five of all time. When I arrived at the track it was starting to drain, but mostly a deep fog. The weather held up for my warm-up but when I went to start the plyo workout it poured. Like monsoon type of poured. I don't think I have ever been so wet and I was doing standing triple and pop-up's into the sand and got covered. If that wasn't bad enough I had to wait 20 minutes for the bus covered in sand and water. THEN I head to sit down freezing cold for 45 minutes until I got to the gym.
When I started doing cleans the straps that were in my bag were wet and I couldn't get a grip. I started at 195lb's, the usual, and couldn't get a single rep finished. It took three tries at 185lb before I got in a full set of five--even then they were probably the most technically inefficient set of my life. Eventually I got four sets finished...
Just one of those workouts that needs to be shook off, I guess the fact that I had six hours of sleep and worked for eight hours this morning didn't help either. Oh well.
TODAY'S WORKOUT
Warm-up
Two foot ankle hops 2x25m
Ankle hops 2x25 (each side)
Depth jumps 3x8
Bounds 4x5 (into pit)
Standing triple jump 5x5 (~8.40, felt terrible and raining hard)
5 Seven step pop-up's
3 Seven step pop-up's+landing
5 nine step pop-up's
1 nine step pop-up+landing
Weights--
Hang Cleans 4x5@185lb's (worst they have ever felt)
¤Straight-legged deadlifts 4x5+162.5lb's
¤I switched the days of the week I do straight-legged deadlifts and regular deadlifts for more efficient recovery.
