Background: I work at OSU as a graduate teaching associate and lift at Ludus Magnus. I am a raw lifter who competes in the 105lb weight classes, and am currently prepping for my next meet (when grad school finally gives me a weekend off) . Currently, I am in the process of trying to accomplish my lofty lifting goals,survive graduate school, and teach undergraduates about what I really love, TRAINING..

DELOAD WEEK 4: DE LOWER
Warm up-general StepperWarm up-specific(ish) 3 x 20 ghr 3 x 20 kb swing
Training-Deload 1.9 x 2 x50% High bar back squat, fast up,fast down 15 Sec rest ** amazingly, I was very quick in the eccentric. This has not always been the case coming out of the eccentric block (mesocycle). I attribute it to my idea to contrast each speed set with an eccentric with a fast set... But that's just my hypothesis...
2. 3 position clean 5 x 1+1+1 30 sec rest except for between set 3 and 4 where I got lost somewhere deep in a thought, not sure how much time passed
3. Weighted kneeling jumps 3 x 3 With up to 15lb db
Conditioning 1.tabata treadmill off sprints 4minutes of 20 on: 10 off Just death
Deload induced sweet nothings??? No pictures from today's training. Instead, I'll leave you with the message I left on Matt Wenning's white board the other morning. I'm assuming Sheena left the lovely heart and message to "bee yourself." I added the appropriate addendum hahah (in header).
