Back Squat 5×3
Four rounds: 10 burpees, 30 double unders

Back squat: 185-195-195-195-195
Metcon: 5:07 rx’d.

I thought I was squatting 205, but apparently can’t do math — wish I’d tried to go up, I’d like to get over 200.

General goals and current maxes:
– Deadlift 2x bw (320#) – 305#
– Squat 1.5x bw (240#) – 195#
– Bench 1x bw (160#) – ????
– OHS 1x bw (160#) – 135#

Good to have goals.

warm up:
red line
then, every minute for 13 minutes:
– 2 snatch balance (45#)
– 3 scarecrow (45#)
– 5 push ups

Wod:
10 min to work up to max height box jump

Metcon:
AMRAP in 15 minutes,
5 strict pull ups
7 push press @ 65% BW
9 knees to elbows

Very proud of the box jumps: 50.5″. I crashed on 53.5″ and have some bruises to prove it. The metcon was a killer — 6 rounds + 10 reps, with an 85# bar and some knees to armpits at the end — but I felt good about it.

Travel WOD: Warmed up with a short red-line-style activity, then capacity building on pull ups and push ups (4/4×5, all nice and slow), then:

21-15-9
35 # dumbbell swings
36″ box jumps

about 3:30. Those box jumps were killer! I should have upped the weight on the dumbbell swings though – 35# was too light. Next time I incorporate them into a workout like this, I’m going up to 40.
