40 Rep Superset

With rain in the forecast pretty much all day today I walked 18 holes yesterday and shot another good score. Should I be afraid I’m using it up so early or excited for how good the rest of season could be? My left calf/achilles is still bothering me. Out in the garage at 1:30.

Warm-up

  • Monster Walks
  • 10 Deadlifts (45#)
  • 10 Deadlifts (95#)
  • 5 Pull-ups
  • 3 HSPU

Conditioning

15:00 AMRAP

  • 10 Pull-ups
  • 10 Deadlifts (135/95#)
  • 10 Russian KBS (70/53#)
  • 10 HSPU

I was thinking somewhere around six rounds would be good for this and I was pretty close. Kept everything unbroken and nearly got through seven, with 6+34. That was a lot of back work and I could feel the first deadlift rep each set when I wasn’t setup properly. So I went slow on the bar, making sure to be solid.

Strength

4 Sets

  • 10 Incline DB Bench Press (45°)
  • 10 Incline DB Bench Press (30°)
  • 10 Incline DB Bench Press (15°)
  • 10 DB Bench Press
  • 3:00 Rest

Big 40 rep superset!! Had no idea what weight to use and I lowered a couple of times before starting. Ended up using 20-25-30-30 pounds and I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have been able to make it through a set with 35 pounders!

Accessory

3 Sets

  • 10 Standing Snow Angels (8# DBs)
  • 10 Banded Face Pull (red each arm)

I had planned to hit some push presses but my upper body was shot and my back was feeling that workout a bit, so I settled on these movements instead.
