Mainsite WOD plus gymnastics WOD

Did this in my garage at lunch...very little warming up.  Just a few double unders and some light weight snatches.

7 rounds:
35 double unders
1 snatch

Didn't really have a game plan.  I hoped to stay the same weight on all snatches, maybe increase if I felt good.  Decided to use either power or split snatch...I knew it would be a spur of the moment decision.

I started with a 120# power snatch after the first 35 d/u and quickly realized the d/u were going to take more out of me that I tought.  the power snatch had quite a bit of press in it, but I got it up.  Dropped down to 110# and did a split snatch for the last 6 rounds.  Double unders were quick..I think I got 4, maybe 5 of the rounds unbroken.  I leaned forward more than I usually do, trying to keep my abs tight, and that seemed to help my rhythm.

All snatches were successful, giving me 780# with a time of 7:38.

Took a 2 minute rest, then went in to death by burpees with tuck jump.  I made it through 8 full rounds and got 8 more in the 9th round. 

WOD time = 9:00
tuck jump burpees = 44

thrusters and tuck jumps

5 rounds for time:
21 75# thrusters
21 tuck jumps

time 14:43

very hard workout! Rx was double unders (I really need to work on those) so I subbed tuck jumps. Legs still very tired from FGB yesterday, but I guess that's CrossFit!!

How I scale

Today's WOD as RX is:

45 double unders (jump rope...for each jump the rope goes under twice)
45 135# squat cleans
45 ring dips
45 double unders

I scale as follows:

tuck jumps (both feet flat on the ground, jump high into the air and tuck your knees into your chest)
45 115# cleans (I can't get into the deep squat position and can't get 135#)
45 dips each of the following equals one dip (1 ring dip, 2 bar dips, 3 bench dips)
45 tuck jumps

When I did dips, I did as many ring dips as I could, then moved immediatley to bar dips requiring 2 bar dips to equal one ring dip, then moved to bench dips requiring 3 to equal one ring dip.

Did as scaled in about 20 minutes (actual time was 21:22 but I stopped for a minute or so to take care of Isabelle prior to final tuck jumps. Triceps are feeling the dips!

Is it rest day yet?
