Welcome back from vacation. Let me fill you in on my trip. I flew to Cabo and got picked up by another team member and we drove around Los Cabos for the day doing advance work etc. The resort I stayed at was beautiful and as soon as I get the pics on the computer I will post some. That night I had a complimentary bottle of tequila in my room and it was the only night I wasn't going to be on the clock so I helped myself. I then went and ate a little drunk and had some of the best salmon ever. After that the trip went down hill, 13 to 14 hour days and ridiculous amounts of food for dinner, although some of the best food I have ever had.
I got back Thursday and intended to have Friday to myself as this was also my first week of the new semester, but that plan fell through with an emergency at the office, so needless to say I did not work out.
Saturday I did some pulls on snatch and clean and jerk just to move again. I went up to 165 on snatch and 215 on power cleans just to knock the rust out. I then finished with a five sets of 2 Front Squats at 235.
Sunday was a rest and recover from hangover day.
Monday was back in the gym day. I started with 2 sets of 4 reps of jerks @185 or 70% (estimated). I then did 3 sets of 5 of push press @ 165. Next was back squats, 4 sets of 5 @ 225 and finally I did 3 sets of 5 bent rows at 185. I then ended with some ghd sit ups and bag work for conditioning.
Tonight I did some mid hang snatch at 115. Some power cleans at 135, 5 reps of snatch grip dl at 275 and then 4x5 stiff legged deadlift at 225. To tired for conditioning after work and school.
I am not really getting very heavy with the weight and the volume is killing me after coming off a Crossfit diet. My lower back is constantly sore, but that is a good thing, beat the weakness.
