Where did everyone go????

Today:

Squats - 6 sets
Deadlift - 3 sets
Standing Calf raises - 2 sets
Squatting calf raises - 2 sets

The squatting calf raises are something I came up with a few years ago. They are great for helping to increase flexibility, but also really hit the soleus and some other smaller muslces in the lower leg. You squat all the way down, the Grok Squat as I've heard some on here call it. In-country it's most oftern called the Hajji Squat. I know, not PC. Anyway, you place a dumbbell on your legs so it's cradled between your knees and chest. Put a hand on a bench for stability. The ONLY joint which moves is your ankle. Leave your butt down. Raise up onto your toes and back down until your heels are on the ground. It's a smoker. The burn gets really deep.

5-4-3-2-1
Snatch grip deadlift, 115#
Handstand pushups (I can only go halfway down if I want to be able to push back up, but they're coming along)

250 KB swings for time (1 pood)
3 muscleup penalty for dropping the KB
My time: 8 minutes even - made it through 173 swings before dropping, had to do 3 sets of muscleups total (progression, so more of a flip + ring dip than full muscleup)

Later in the afternoon:
5x5
Front squat
Power clean
80-85-90-95-100 (took it easy on weight)

Snatch form practice:
5x3
Hang power snatch 35#

Today's workout was Day 3 Level 7 of Simple Fit - the test day. Ran 1 mile to the park and did 40 pullups, 80 pushups and 80 Squats in 6:23. Then ran the 1 mile home.

You do each exercise in as many continuous sets as it takes. For example I did Pullups in a rapid succession of sets 15.10,10, 5 then Pushups in 3 sets 60, 15, 5 and 80 Squats without stopping.
