Changing It Up
Want to first off apologize for the time off between the last post. Just moved again and currently working with SUNY Cortland Football team as the assistant athletic trainer. As the team goes through pre-season camp and double sessions it will be interesting to see how well the guys respond with recovery, proper nutrition, and the recommended hydration. I will let you know how they are doing at a later date. So far as a did make an appearance to their dinner last night, but was not impressed with the choices of food or beverage selection of some players. Athlete crushing ice cream, sucking down large quantities of soda and grilled cheese. Its not all of them but it seems like there is a common tend between new guys (freshman) and lineman (OL/DL). I believe it would be better if there was some way to educate them on proper nutrition and hydration.
Been feeling kind of sluggish lately, whether its due to the increase stress at work or overtraining but I decided to back off on the volume a little and focus more on strength of my Olympic lifts then the Met-con work. I'll still do met-con work a couple times a week but without the strength piece. Once pre-season is over for football and I have more time and feeling more myself then I'll pick back up where I left over and increasing my workouts in a day in order to get ready for the Beast of the East.
On to today's WOD
Strength
Power Jerk + Jerk: 175lbs 1+1, 170lbs 1+1

NOTE: The snatch high pull was done with lighter weight in order to get the bar as high as possible. Body is feeling sluggish but only sore in my traps probably due to the cleans done yesterday.
