5k

breezy day 50f with winds 12-18 mph. Run west out of driveway around circle, then out of neighborhood, on Highland to Argus, Rustic, Walters, Mefford, Argus, Highland, a few yards before Jackson St.

Felt like I was running pretty good, picked up the pace on the last stretch. Didn't look at my watch at all during the run. Thought I was close a PR...today's time 24:15, my PR is 22:50.

I guess running hard it what it's all about, but I sure hoped for a better time!

final round clean and jerk didn't get locked out (got it overhead and close, but not quite) so I cleaned it again, but had nothing in the tank to jerk/press it out.

Great WOD with Jared at the Depot

Deadlift and OHS

21-15-9 of 225# deadlift and 95# OHS

21 - DL unbroken, OHS 8/6/6/1

9 - DL unbroken, OHS 1/4/4

time 14:23 (21 - 5:53, 15 - 5:29, 9 - 4:01)

I was a little worried when I warmed up and struggled with a 95# OHS. Big difference when I kept my concentration and form vs. when I didn't.

A little tired today (got up too early this AM) but ended up being a great WOD!

snatch balance

not very good with any aspect of this lift. Practiced today a few light OHS, trying to keep the bar overhead instead of behind my head & leaning forward. Did a few snatch balances, but didn't ever get a good quick drop. I did better the first few attempts, but as I got tired, I ended up doing more of a wide grip push jerk, followed by an OHS.

All reps, probably 10-12, done at 95#.

snatch and pull ups

21-15-9
L arm snatch 50# db
R arm snatch 50# db
pull ups

time 7:57

Sweet WOD. Pretty intense but not too much weight. I was able to keep moving pretty well, but did have to take a few breaks for a couple deep breaths. I was able to catch most snatches fully locked, but had a small press in a few towards the ends of the 15 and 9 rounds.

6AM WOD at Depot with Jared, Vince, and Zach.

Bench Press 2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2

I'm not a fan of bench. It makes my left shoulder hurt during the WOD and sometimes for a few days after the WOD. Today's weights as follows:

2-170
2-180
2-190
2-185 2nd rep very slow
1-180 (failed #2)
1-170 (shoulder hurt, threw in the towel)

Squats and rope climb

scaled WOD as follows:
50 95# squats
9 rope climbs
40 115# squats
7 rope climbs
30 135# squats
5 rope climbs
20 squats (6 @ 145, 14 @115)
4 climbs
10 145# squats
3 rope climbs

time 30:25

had to scale weights of rond of 20 and 10, Rx was 155 and 175. Since I wasn't using a rack, I had to clean and press/jerk the weight overhead then lower it onto my back. After the 6 reps @ 145, I dropped it to rest, and didn't have it in me to clean and jerk it, so I dropped weight.

Rope climbs were easy (or at least easier than the squats). I increased the number of climbs so I ended up climbing the same distance (in feet) as Rx. Round times were 3:39, 7:25, 7:53, 7:40, 3:48. It took about a minute on the second round to change weights on the bar, then a little time, maybe 30 seconds on the other rounds to get the weight set. The rest probably helped, but I don't think I would've waited that long to start the squats.

WOD in the garage with Jared.

USAW/CrossFit WOD

snatch - 1 rep
clean and jerk - 1 rep

then AMRAP 10 minutes:
6 120# squat cleans
12 pull ups
24 double unders

snatch - 135f, 125, 135f
c & j - 165, 175, 180f
4 rounds plus 6 squat cleans and 5 pull ups

points: snatch 56.8kg + c&j 79.5kg + 179 reps = 315.3

Felt good on the squat cleans. Finally able to catch the bar, pretty much on my shoulders and get the full squat. Jared thought we had done 5 full rounds, but I only had 4 full marked...not really sure, so my score has the lesser number.
