JaySun's Journey

[JaySun71]

WU: 3RFT - 2 HSKU's, 4 dips, 6 pull ups, 8 GHDSU'S, 10 push ups TT=5'28"
Strength: Push Jerks 5x2@150# 2x5@125# EMOM TT=7'
Conditioning: FT - 30 burpee broad jumps@6 feet, 30 KBS@55#, 30 burpee broad jumps@6 feet TT=10'40"
Notes: I didn't really feel like doing this, but here goes...Pretty happy with the results. The PJ was kind of weak sauce for me. I started at 160#, but knew it would be best to drop a few pounds. My 3RM is 200# and my 1RM is 225#. Oh well. The conditioning was terrible. 60 burpees and 60 6 foot broad jumps? Interrupted by heavy KBS? Oh well, happy with that time. Previous time was 2 minutes slower.

Nice job on that one. Yeah, that conditioning does look terrible. Nothing easy in that one. Way to get it done and beat your previous time!

Been off the grid for a bit. This was the last weekend before teachers go back to school. Spent most of my time at the beach or hucking canoes at the canoe livery.

Up here (in Canada, well Ontario anyway) teachers / students are back till after Labor day in Sept.

Well, even though I'm jealous that you get a summer break and I don't, I'm sorry that you have to go back to work. Sounds like it was a good weekend.

WU: 4RFT- 5 four count mtn climbers, 10 push ups, 15 air squats TT=4'17"
Strength: Hang Power Clean 5x2@135,140,145,150,165 2x5@135 EMOM TT=6'34"
Conditioning: 3RFT: 8 DB burpee G2OH's@45#, 10 pull ups, 60 SUs TT=6'46"
$out: 800m swim
Notes: Love HPC! One of the best lifts by far. 1RM is 170#, so happy with 165x2! The metcon was terrible, but the swim was great. Didn't have time to run as I was watching the boys. Have a good one!

It used to be that way here as well. I'm to the point where I think we should go year round and just take 2-3 week breaks between sessions.

[JaySun71]

Trent, the weekend was good. Saturday we had an offshore wind which glassed out the storm swell and the boys and I had a great time surfing. Waist to chest high. Nice little rollers. Great workout too.

Good looking workout all around. Strong work on the HPC and a nice metcon. Plus you can't beat the swim at the end to cool down. Jealous of the surf as well. Glad you guys enjoyed it. The guys I was playing golf with this weekend were old buddies from the beach that are living here now. I was talking with one of them and he said the he also checks the surf multiple times per day, despite being 100 miles away. (I've been doing that for 7 years...)

[JaySun71]

Notes: Lots of leg work today. The conditioning was very tough. Off to soccer!

[JaySun71]

5.3k run TT=29'45"
It was very hot and humid today. 104°F/80% humidity. Had a 13'55" 3200m split. Needless to say that I wasn't able to maintain that pace, but my goal for this run was to come in under 14' for the 3200m and under 30' for the 5k.

[TM79]

Nice job the last couple of days. Solid work on the squats and metcon and also a nice time on that run yesterday. That's crazy you're smoking those runs in the heat like that. Should be ready for your league!

Strength: Hang squat cleans 2 reps every 1'30" for 12'@135,140,145,150,155,160,165,170
Conditioning: 21-15-9 hang squat cleans@95# and dips TT=11'07"
Notes: Whoo! Glad that one is done. Pretty happy with the numbers though. 170x2 is a PR. Hope everyone had a great day!

Thanks. The heat is bad, but I do sort of beat it by loading my CamelBak with ice water. I only drink every kilometer.
We'll see how the league goes. I'm working my a$$ off managing my oldest son's travel soccer team.

Monster numbers on that one. How about a few HSC's in that workout? I would get carted off to the ER if I tried that right now. Ha ha ha...

[JaySun71]

Ha ha! Yeah, it was a lot of squat cleans. That metcon was a scaled Elizabeth. 95# subbed for 135# and regular dips instead of ring dips. No way I was going to get that many consecutive reps at 135!
IDK about monster numbers, but plenty heavy for me. Thanks!

Notes: New PJ 1RM. Failed and had to dump 210#. I never dump weights. The conditioning was not too bad, but I was definitely gassed. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Good looking one here. Dude, that is some serious weight on PJ! Congrats on the 1RM! Don't worry, I never would've gotten 210 off the rack. The metcon looked good too. Nice job my friend!

Thanks! Yeah, pretty stoked about the PR. The conditioning was just enough of a grinder.

Man, I can't even imagine doing that much weight on OHP. Great job and congrats on the PR!

Thanks man.

It's weird...my PJ max is the same even though it should be more.. IDK, S2OH movements are voodoo lifts. I guess I need to check my form on PJ.

[JaySun71]

I have been super busy with soccer. My U11 boys team officially started this week and I have been spending most of my time at the soccer club either putting out 🔥's with parents or helping the coaches. Technically, I'm just "team manager." We have our first tournament this weekend. Should be interesting since we'll be playing the top two teams in the league. Hopefully, I'll get a chance to either workout or run tomorrow, then practice Friday and a 0830 kickoff Saturday.

[JaySun71]

WU/Strength Super Set: 543212345 reps of: back Squats, Pull-ups, jumping jacks, Push ups, sit ups.

Conditioning: 3RFT- 225m run, 30 air squats, 15 burpees TT=12'41"
Notes: Whoo! Welcome back! Lots of squats. The conditioning was terrible since it was 106°! Hope everyone had a great day!

[wasmeFINAFLEX]

Hope the tournie goes well. My son was a great hockey player... miss those days.

[TM79]

Serious squat work going on yesterday! Way to get it done! I hope the soccer tournament goes well.

It went as expected. The 13 kids had practiced together for a total of three hours and were in a "1st division" bracket. We lost both games, but it was helpful as a manager/coach. The kids are smart and realized, "Coach, this is the big league!"

Thanks. It wasn't too bad. The tournament was a good one, but our team had only three hours of practice while the other teams have been together for a year or more. We lost both games, but we kept it close. We were kinda like the Bad News 🐻 of soccer. It was 110°F on the field, I had cooling towels for all the players. My son did ridiculously well drawing several scouts asking about him. Once this team gels, we will make an impact.
