Sarah Johnson

The meet didn’t go as well as I would have liked, but I really enjoyed getting to see all of my old teammates and friends from eastern NC. It was great…..weights were lifted, caffeine was downed, and too much candy was eaten. At least that’s what I did. Here’s a break down from the meet. […]

Front Squat w/ 5s pause at the bottom and 10s pause: I opted to do these barefoot and with no knee wraps because my mobility allows it and I wanted to see what I could work up to. I ended up working up to 115kg. Push Press 5rm: 72kg 1×5 and 60kg for 1×6 These

My back and legs felt a little beat up today after the heavy squats yesterday, but I still managed to match my best snatch and hit another big squat today. I followed this session up with the active recovery cycle on the Compex on my lower back and quads. Snatch Grip Push Press + OHS:

As of today I’m less than a week out from my next meet. I’m going to this meet to total over 200kg. If all goes well then I’ll only need to go 4/6 to accomplish this. There will be no taper and the only difference between what the program says and what I’m doing is

The ECU Weightlifting Open is only eight days away, so this was my last maxout session where I’ll snatch and clean and jerk before the meet. Considering the circumstances surrounding the session (less than 4 hours of sleep) I think the session went pretty well. I was moving a lot slower than I would have

Once again the title is a little misleading because no metcon was done, but I did do the whole workout in my Nike metcons.
