Today was my first time doing split jerks. They came more naturally than some of the other things have. i really enjoyed them. I think the split makes things a bit more stable. Ran short on time trying to find a 1RM today. Felt like I got a great workout though. Felt good to move some weight after not lifting since a week before the marathon.
warmup:
5min easy row
3 rounds of:
20 squats
10 jump squats
5 hanging snatch(2 with pvc,1 with barbell)
10x2 Snatch high pull(goal is to pull 90% of 1RM of Snatch) with 2min between sets
95/115/135/135/135/135/135/135/135/135
Work towards finding 1rm or split jerk
5x95
5x115
5x135
5x155
3x175
3x185
1x195
1x205
6:30 class was arriving and it was time to pick up. Had 215 on the bar but didnt get a chance to try it. Guessing that 215 would have been my 1RM for day. Fresh, i'd maybe be able to get 225. Not sure. Its a confidence thing and it started to get a little scary getting under that kind of weight. the nice thing about a lot of these lifts is that i'll see significant gains from technique and confidence improvements. very very happy to be back in the gym. When i finished the marathon feeling great and knowing i hadn't really trained myself at running, i was really thankful for these workouts.
