Latest workouts

I haven't jumping hardly at all lately.  I am focusing on getting some solid strength numbers.  Plus, I just haven't had good opportunities to get to play bball.  I am going to add 1 plyo exercise to my warmup each workout day.  Anyhow, here's what I've been up to:

6 Oct 12

Press
5 x 45#
5 x 95#
3 x 115#
5 x 120#
5 x 140#
5+1 x 155#
Wanted 8 on the last one but whatever.

Hang Snatch
6 x 2 @ 60# EMOM
I made sure to go into a deep OHS position, pause then go up. Definitely feeling more comfortable in that position.

7 Oct 12

Rest day.

8 Oct 12

Squat
5 x 45#
5 x 135#
5 x 155#
3 x 185#
3 x 210#
3 x 240#
3+2 x 265#
Not bad, felt kind of heavy, but good.

Snatch
3 x 70#
3 x 85#
3 x 95#
Felt really good on these. Really got deep in my OHS position. Feel like I'm getting better!

Run
1.5 mi run in 12:30 (8:20 min/mi)
Ran home from the Auto shop, it was a little chilly but I tried to focus on my form and really moving efficiently. Felt pretty easy.

9 Oct 12

1.5 mi run
12 min (8 min/mi)
Same run as yesterday, just in reverse. Back was a little tight but not too bad. Going to do speed work at lunch.

9 Oct 12 (Cont)

Lunch CFE

Warmup: 5 min jog

Workout:
3 rds of:
200m - 400m - 600m
Rest=1:1

Rd 1: 39.45 s (4:58 min/mi) - 1:27 (5:26 min/mi) - 2:27 (6:16 min/mi)
Rd 1: 40.75 s (5:18 min/mi) - 1:32 (5:49 min/mi) - 2:26 (6:14 min/mi)
Rd 1: 42.87 s (5:41 min/mi) - 1:38 (6:09 min/mi) - 2:30 (6:40 min/mi)

Total distance: 3.1 mi

Pretty good run. Tried to control myself on the 200s and I guess that helped. Still fell off my pace but not that bad. Need to work those 600 and 800 distances more I think.

10 Oct 12

Bench Press
5 x 45#
5 x 95#
5 x 115
3 x 140#
3 x 165#
3 x 195#
3+4 x 225# PR!! 
BOOM!! Most reps I've ever done with 2 plates. Not earth shattering by any means, but it's always been a personal goal to rep out 225, and I fo sho did it. Bar touched chest every time!

Hang Power Cleans
5 x 2 @ 95# EMOM
WAY TOO LIGHT!!!! Need to at least be 135#. Holy crap!

I planned on doing a WOD but my little girl is sick and threw up so I had to run to the store to get a thermometer and some kids tylenol. I feel terrible for my little one. It's not serious, but she just looks so sad.
