31 May

Pull / Chin / Neutral / Chin / Pull – 8,6,5,6,2 (90 secs)
Side Plank – 2 x 50 secs
Wall Press Heel Taps – 2 x 13 per leg
Passive Hang – 45 secs

2 June

Pull / Chin / Neutral / Chin / Pull – 8,7,6,5,2 (90 secs)
Front Plank – 2 mins 45 secs
Wall Press Heel Taps – 2 x 13 per leg
Passive Hang – 80 secs

I was filming some other challenge which involved front plank and passive hang.

4 June

Pull / Chin / Neutral / Chin / Pull – 10,6,7,8,2 (90 secs)
Side Plank – 2 x 50 secs
Wall Press Heel Taps – 2 x 13 per leg

This was more of a struggle, I’ve been going through the motions so far as it hasn’t been a challenge at <= 8 reps. Total reps is creeping up slowly as the final set has dropped to 2 reps this week

24 May

Pull / Chin / Neutral / Chin / Pull – 6,5,4,6,5 (90 secs)
Wall Press Heel Taps – 2 x 10 per leg
Hollow Body Hold – 2 x 25 secs

Note that the previous week was also a hollow body hold i.e. static, and not a hollow rock.

26 May

Pull / Chin / Neutral / Chin / Pull – 8,5,5,4,4 (90 secs)
Wall Press Heel Taps – 2 x 10 per leg
Hollow Body Hold – 2 x 25 secs

28 May

Pull / Chin / Neutral / Chin / Pull – 5,9,5,5,5 (90 secs)
Hollow Body Hold – 2 x 25 secs
Wall Press Heel Taps – 2 x 10 per leg

The hollow body hold is the harder of the two so I did that first. I was expecting the reps to ramp up faster but I suppose this program is also for people who can only do 7-8 pull ups so they’d already be near their max.

Here’s my 12 dead hang pullups from day 0

25 May

Around The Square – 3 x 4
Tuck Jumps – 2 x 10
Floor to Ceiling Jumps – 3 x 10
High Knee Running – 3 x 40 contacts

27 May

Around The Square – 3 x 4
Single Leg Bench Hops – 2 x 8
Depth Jumps – 3 x 5 x 45cm
Seated Box Jumps – 3 x 8

29 May

Trek (plyos) – 2 x 20
Accels – 20m bend
Sprints – 3 x 200, 2 x 200 (2.5 mins / 10 mins) in 28.5, 28.7, 28.9 & 29.1, 29.5

My series on 8th May was 27.7, 28.7, 28.9, 29.7, 30.9 so 0.8 slower on the first run (which was too fast last time) and 0.6 / 1.4 seconds faster on the final two reps. Pleased with that, I didn’t feel too horrible lining up for the final 200m and knowing my best is 26.2 I think a target of 28.5 is reasonable.

Thanks to the Jubilee I’ll have Thurs/Fri off so I plan to do a speed session on the Thursday and maybe some tempo on the Saturday or Sunday, meaning if I can work from home on Tuesday 7th I can finish a bit early and go to the local track meet.

The plate snatch to box I got from here https://youtu.be/wd6UESSBOk0?t=216

22 May

Trek – 2 x 20m
Accels – 3 x 30m in 4.45
Sprints – 80m, 100m, 120m (10 mins / 12 mins) in ??, 12.81, 15.22

My spike plates were hanging off my shoes for the longer runs, I’ve just got home and glued them back on. Always annoying to incorrectly press the start/stop on my watch and not get a time as the 80m felt fast. Slight tailwind here so pleased with the times, I ran 15.15 with a big tailwind in late April.

The local track meet is on the 7th June so I may not take part, especially since I’d need to register at 5.30pm for the 100m and I’m very unlikely to be done with work by then. It would be nice to register an official electronic time but I’m not overly bothered by it so I may stop next week.
