Speed & Assistance Work

Changing things up this block to focus on some weaknesses while simply progressing some other things. This was fun.

Single Leg Box Jumps

5ea x BW to 6"

5ea x BW to 12"

5ea x BW to 15" ---------------------

3x5ea x BW to 18"

I haven't ever really done these so I am probably being a little conservative on my heights, but they felt like things should progress well.

Axle Power Cleans

10x70 --------

2x8x160

8x180

I added these in due to my recent lack of total and complete grip strength dominance while doing heavy farmer's walks.

Supinated Grip Lat Pulldowns/Lateral Raises

10x145/12x25 -------------------

6x190/8x35

2x{6x210/8x35}

Triceps Pushdowns/Alternate Arm Curls (L,R,B=1)/"Toes to Bar"

10x70/5x35/--- --------------------

6x100/4x55/8xBW

6x110/4x55/6xBW

6x100/4x55/6xBW

Doing 110 on triceps pushdowns bothered my left elbow because my technique went to hell so I dropped back down on the 3rd set. Curls went as planned, but I had to use hanging ab straps (a.k.a. Weenie Wings) to do anything that remotely resembled toes to bar. Even then, I think my toes actually touched the bar maybe once or twice and despite doing only 20 reps total, this wrecked my abs for several days.
