WHITEBOARD – 20 February 2013

Posted by beyultraining on February 20, 2013 · 9 Comments 

Workload:

15-20 Minutes low intensity cardio (60-70% effort)

Then:

Mobility/restorative work of your choice

Notes: If you didn’t get your squats in yet, do so.  If you followed the squat cycle, then take the day to retest your new 1 rep max.  The 15-20 minutes of low intensity cardio doesn’t have to be the traditional stuff.  You can do Olympic lifts with low weight for technique with minimal rest.  Think 2 reps on the minute for 15 minutes.  We are looking for something that gets you moving, preferably in full range of the hip and knees and gives you a spike in heart rate for a bit.

Oh, and if you are looking for motivation for your squat day look at this intensity:

Also, the picture of the day is of the same lifter completing a C&J and fainting after.  The doctor didn’t like how he looked COMING UP to the bar and tried to stop him.  He then went on to complete the lift and faint right after.  Intensity isn’t this guys problem…

    Nothing like a lot of yelling in Russian to motivate you for the day.

    1.5mile run. Ouch. My whole body hurts
    some stretching
    then 10 minutes, on the minute. alternate 5 burpees and 2 reps one arm clean and press each arm

    The goal for tomorrow? Get in a visit to Catalyst Athletics. Don’t be a hater

      That is Finnish yelling. Jealous about going to Catalyst. Enjoy working out with all those great athletes. Have them smack you every time you let the bar come away from you.

        I will not have time to do an actual workout. I’m just stalking Greg Everett

    No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were. Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee...
