- Ring Dips
- Double Squat Ball Tosses
Double Ball Tosses are like a wallball, only there is no wall. There is no height requirement. You must throw the ball in the air as you come to full extension, do a full squat and catch the ball after you come to full extension. If you catch the ball before you come up to full extension, that is a no rep. Have fun.

Was it the clean or the jerk? Either way, well played!
The clean. my max jerk is 180#, but I struggle with cleans.
Are you squat or power cleaning it? I am just starting to get comfortable with squat cleaning heavy now, but the amount of work involved with the actual clean seems so much less than the power version. Of course, you have to have a strong front squat, but I’m sure you do!

First day of the nutrition challenge: 1,100 total calories; 20% carbs, 31% protein, 49% fat. Everything was “good.” I clearly need to eat more & work on the percentages.
I’m no nutritionist, thank goodess!, but if you are training hard and lifting heavy 1100 calories is breakfast dude! Unless you are trying to cut weight fast for some silly reason, but either way you can’t maintain a strong level of effort with that intake, regardless of the balance of nutrients – which sounds good by the way.
are rockstar energy drinks a good recovery option? haha 🙂
Eric is right though. Kyle your block count is probably a bit low. I would add 1 or 2 more blocks and watch your energy levels this week.
Well, I’m supposed to get 19 blocks if I did the math correctly, which I clearly didn’t get yesterday. Part of the problem is I had no food except canned tuna in the house. I finally was able to get some grocery shopping done yesterday evening, so we’ll see how it goes today; 411 calories for breakfast so far. (Is there a good breakfast vegetable?)
Almost any vegetable goes well with eggs — spinach, squash, asparagus, broccoli…!

Nutrition: 2,013 calories; 47% fat, 24% protein, 29% carbs. I was amazed at how a modest amount of almonds and olive oil sent my fat calories through the stratosphere.
Also, last night I dreamt that I had a beer and woke up pissed off that I already ruined the nutrition challenge. And that’s just day one.
