Tuesday, July 6: Bench Press and Luce



The Plan is to hit up the hero WOD Luce from yesterday on HQ, but before I do that I'm gong to bench press a little. Should be humbling because it's be ages since I last benched.

Today it was Rick, Kenny and myself all WOD'ing in the garage doing different stuff. It was a hot, humid, good time, well that's except for the WOD's. That part almost killed us.

Warm Up:
Bench Press 5-5-5-5-5

Jacob 145-175-195-205-215

WOD #1
Bench Press 5-5-5-5-5

Jacob 225-225-225-225-225 (PR for a 5x5)

This is the first time I hit all 5 sets without a spot, felt good and my shoulder held up so that was even better.

WOD #2
"Luce"

For time:
1K Run
10 Muscle-ups
100 Squats
*All with a 20lb Vest


Jacob 29:46 Rx'd (9:00, 10:00 and 10:46)

Kenny on the other hand hit a PR on his front squats. It was sick!

WOD #1
Front Squat 3-3-3-3-3-3-3


Kenny 225-235-245-255-265-275-285(PR)

Great video of Elizabeth! Those first 21 squat cleans are undeniably the worst part in my opinion. Keep crushing it!
