Digg Deep: Slowly adding weight

Slowly adding weight

12min AMRAP
5 Front Squat 145#
10 Pushups
20 Toes to Bar
4rounds +5FS+10Pushes

I told myself to use 145# and not opt out for the lighter 135#. In hindsight maybe 155# could have been achieved. The toes to bar were what threw me off. I have not done them before in a WOD and the rythmn threw me off did them in 5s.

Bench Press 5/3/1
135x3
155x3
175x5

World Class Fitness in 100 Words

Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports.
