2012 Off Season TD 43 - RIP Sgt. Jason G. Amores

today's workout is in loving memory of Sgt. Jason G. Amores, one of the best Marines i had the pleasure working with in 2008.  i appreciated his friendship and learned a lot from him while we attended infantry squad leaders course together.  one of my last memories of him was when he was pumped to pcs to join 3/5 out in camp pendleton.  unfortunately, last year, Jason was killed by an ied in Sangin, Helmand Province, Afghanistan.  he is truly missed and has been a great loss to our country.  Semper Fi and RIP Jason.

this evening, HD and i split the session up into (1) overhead presses, (2) a superset, (3) pullups, and (4) an AMAP of weighted situps.  HD already knocked out his deadlifts in the morning and i was a bad boy and skipped out of them this week...

overhead presses
5reps/70lbs, 5reps/85lbs, 3reps/100lbs, 3reps/120lbs, 3reps/135lbs 3reps/155lbs

next, superset
snatches- 5reps/100lbs, 5reps/100lbs, 5reps/100lbs
front squats- 10reps/100lbs, 10reps/100lbs, 10reps/100lbs

next, pullups
15reps, 15reps, 15reps

last, weight situps - AMAP (as many as possible)
HD: 28reps/30lbs
DV: 40reps/30lbs

and on to week 3 of this cycle of 5/3/1... hopefully skipping out on deadlifts does not hurt me next week.

get involved w/or donate to the Wounded Warrior Project

RIP Jason.
