4.30.11 - Rest Day

238.0

Rest Day

Food:
Shrimp
Grande Iced Latte w/whole milk

Notes:
I had a thought this morning, which is to set a goal to try and come in among the top 200 in the NW Region next year. The original thought was top 100, but then, knowing how good Scott is and that he is currently ranked 60th, I'm pretty sure top 100 is out of reach. Top 200 though, may be doable with improved skills in double unders, HSPU's, muscle-ups, and kipping pull-ups; increased overall mobility, increased strength and power; marginal improvements in endurance, and decreased body weight.

Some interim goals:
Back Squat: 350
Front Squat: 250
Overhead Squat: 135
Deadlift: 420
Power Clean: 200
Power Snatch: 150
Push Press: 200
Barbell Row: 200
Grace: Sub 5 minutes
Fran: Sub 7 minutes

Target for these goals is end of August-ish.

I'm not worrying about double unders in the short term. My thinking on those right now is that they will come with decreased overall body weight and improved strength in hips and glutes; fundamentally, I just need to be lighter on my feet to make those happen. The repetitive motion that needs to happen to make DU's a reality is primarily in the hips, and that's simply going to take time.
