• Broad Jumps: 8' 10.5", 9' 2.5", 9' 3", 9' 2.5", 9' 3", 9' 2", 9' 2.5", 9' 5.5", 9'1", 9' 5", 9' 2", 9' 3", 8' 11", 9' 2", 8' 10", 9' 1", 8' 10"
• Weighted Box Jumps (24"): 10*10
• Weighted Box Jumps (31"): 10*5
• Battling Rope-Rope Slam S.S.: 50-10 50-10

Good session! No PRs on broad jumps but I didn't have a lot of pop today so that's not surprising. Did some weighted box jumping as well, I'm going to be incorporating more of this stuff as I get into the cut more.

• Weighted 34.5" Plyo Box Jumps / Seated Plyo 34.5" Box Jump Giant Set: 6kg*15-BW*15
• Plyo Bench Clap Pushups: 8, 7, 6
• P.U.P.P.: 1:00

Basic session.  I feel the clap pushups a bit more than the regular bench pushups.   PUPP was not to failure, just something to keep my core awake.  

December 12, 2011 Lower, Heavy

• Deadlifts: 320*3 380*3 400*3 420*3 430*3
• Hang Cleans: 170*3 180*3 190*3 200*2 180*3
• Weighted 34.5" Plyo Box Jumps / 34.5" plyo Box Jumps Giant Set: 15*15 - BW*15
• Shoulder Touch Planks:12, 10

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice session.  I'm focusing on really tearing the bar off the ground, really helps when you start getting to higher weights.  Considering a month ago I was at 405*2 I'm happy with today's results. I'm actually thinking that the 420 and 430 are 3 rep records for me.  Hang cleans went well. I need to get some chalk though.  I'll be looking for a 3rd at 200 next week.  Need to keep practicing form before hand as well.  That giant set I did afterward destroyed me.  I literally did 30 jumps to 34.5" in less than 90 seconds.  

October 9, 2011 Conditioning

• 7kg MB Slams: 50, 50, 50
• 34" Plyo Box Jumps: 4kg*10 8kg*10
• 34" Seated Plyo Box Jumps: 10kg*10 12kg*10
• Paloffs: 50*3 60*2

So since I can't quite get onto the medium & tall box stacked on each other (about 39") without worrying about catching my shins on the steel frame, I decided to hold a weight in front of me while jumping on the regular height box.  This way I'll get used to jumping with the extra weight, should make getting on the taller stack easier.  Honestly though I wish they had soft boxes to jump on instead of these steel ones, seems like a leg-break hazard.  Apparently the club in Medford has soft boxes.  Also liked how holding a kettlebell while doing the jumps took the arm swing out of the movement and made me focus more on legs.
