Press - Push Press - Push Jerks

This is one of my least favorite workouts, so I figured I needed to do it.

Buy-in: 2 rounds CFWU

WOD: Press 1-1-1-1-1
Push press 3-3-3-3-3
Push jerk 5-5-5-5-5

Warm-up sets: 5 x 45# press

Work sets:
Presses

  • 1 x 60#
  • 1 x 65#
  • 1 x 70#
  • 1 x 75#
Push presses

  • 3 x 85#
Push jerks

My back started feeling funny during the last set of push presses - kind of a twinge in lower right near my rib cage. I went ahead with the first set of push jerks, but really didn't like how my back was feeling, so I bailed. The strict presses and push presses were pretty good, but I guess I lost my form somewhere during the push presses.
