A1: Didn’t have any bands around so I did some quick pulls with 135 and 185
A2: Weighted sets of 12 with 10#

B: Rx at 245 in 16:33. That was a monster. My max is only 335 so I couldn’t go unbroken.

A. Class subbed banded DL for Snatch Grip DL. Worked up to sets of 8 with 185. Did rogue green band for sets of 15 on pushups
B. 11:47 RX. Burpees weren’t as bad as last fridays. Broke up my deadlifts in half for all sets except 4-1. Fun to move some heavy weight!

How should we choose the band weight for this? Thanks!

Sorry I just saw this. Were you able to figure out which band to use? The idea is to make it more challenging on the way up stability wise (and of course with the resistance) but also on the way down resisting the band that’s pulling you too fast downward.

A. 6×115# with red band each set
15 Push-ups on knees on parallettes;
B. Slow: 15:23 Rx’d for 10s, 9s, 8s, 7s, and then dropped down to 155# DL for remaining rounds (felt good at rx weight but DL were taking longer than I expected; also I didn’t want to push it too hard since it has been a while since I have deadlifted, and I wasn’t sure how my body would respond)
