do not know ha. I didn't even make it through the cleans... started to feel extremely lightheaded on the wall balls, felt dizzy like the room was spinning. Not a big deal, just felt a little woozy after the workout but people gave me gatorade and a bar and then I felt better! Big mistake, just struggling with lack of appetite!

welll the row felt good, I think I kept a pretty good pace. toes to bar were a struggle. wall balls were really slow and bad... kept getting emotional/choked up which would cause my chest to hurt and not able to breathe. by the time I got to the cleans, I was feeling really down and discouraged. and then I only got 2 muscle ups, probably had time for a 3rd but I gave up.
basically I need to come in Monday with a clear and refreshed mind and I think I can certainly do better. My goal for Monday is to get at least 5 muscle ups! I think if I just keep a steadier pace through the toes to bar and wall balls, I can get it. I hope!

so so hard!
on the second set of 14 ohs, I failed the snatch just as a result of trying to pick it up too fast, and then on my 5th rep I lost my balance and I dropped it behind me. that added on quite a bit of time and lost a lot of energy snatching it up 2 extra times! got back to the pull up bar and got 5 in a row but then I realized I only had like 10 seconds left so basically gave up and did a couple singles. I think/HOPE I can do better Monday! determined to make it to those 16's!!!

these were hard and not fun! tried my hardest to keep it below 2 minutes on all 5, but kept running out of steam
practiced double unders a lot, trying to change my whole technique so I can actually do them right but I'm realizing that is going to be a much longer process than just this weekend! So I'm gonna just do what I can on Monday, and wear pants that fit, and go at a time where there are no distractions and just see what happens... this is a big wake up call though that my double under issue is a reallll set back that I have gotta do something about. maybe this is a good thing, so I'll actually start to take these things seriously so this will NOT happen next year!

not good, at all. I did it at a bad time because I get really anxious when people are watching me do double unders. then I started to do worse and worse, which made me get more and more anxious and angry... just not a good day! Also very disappointing because the snatches felt really easy, it's just the dang du's. But I'm just gonna practice til Monday and see what happens then

71 reps
rest 4 minutes
45 reps
my legs were SO sore from the back squats the night before so I knew going in this was going to be rough. did 10 butterfly c2b in a row, and jumped right back up to do 5 more reps and finished the 1st round in a little over 1 minute. Really glad about that, but then the second round, I lost my rhythm on the butterfly and could only get 2 or 3 at a time. I should've switched to kipping but I was being stubborn and wanted to get that butterfly down! Took it easy on the second 4 minutes because my legs were hurting so bad already, I wanted to save some energy for the oly course.
PRed snatch by 2.2 pounds - 137.2#
legs are so sore today that I am struggling to walk/stand up/sit down ha. Going to ice them and roll out so hopefully they'll be okay for the box jumps tomorrow.

D. 30 second 85% AD, 30 second 50%, x30
A. 6:37. did sets of 8's, 7's, and 6's. so heavy!
B. 1, 3, 2, 1... reallly trying to focus on the no feet above the rings thing though which makes them even harder. Drew was watching and said my feet were not going above the rings so that's good news! Bad news is, I was not getting very many in a row. I attempted the 2nd one on both of the sets that I only got 1 on, and just couldn't quite make it up there
C. 10:49
