I fell a little behind on my posts (damn, that happened quick), partially thanks to the end of this interim semester approaching and all the reading/hw I have to do. Whatevs. Rather than trying to bullshit 3 days worth of posts, I'll just do one for em.

Sunday 1/26/14 - 

Here I did the Outlaw WOD for Saturday the 25th (is this getting confusing yet?) because I was so damn sore on Saturday after that offing 5k. Did I mention I hate running?

7x1 Snatches @ 135# - form felt amazing on these for some reason. I could've gone heavier but wanted to just maintain that form since this feeling never happens.

5x1 Clean and Jerk @ 205# - weirdly not all that great. This is the first time I've felt good for snatches and then shitty for clean and jerk. I have no idea.

3x3 Front Squats @ 225#

For time:

20 HSPU, 50 Double-unders, 10 OHS 135#, 10 Wall-climbs, 10 OHS 135#, 50 Double-unders, 20 HSPU.

This wrecked my shoulders. Felt good though. It's slightly different than what was prescribed cause I can't handstand walk, but it worked.

Monday 1/27/14 -

Max 2-position Snatch - worked up to 145#. Missed 155# a couple times and it just wasn't happening.

EMOM for 5:00 - 115# 1 2-position Snatch

a) 3xME C2B Pull-ups - rest 2:00

alternating

b) 3x20 (steps) Front Walking Lunges @ 115#. Walking lunges always get me man. And there went my ability walk.

150 Wall Balls 20# - 8:11 - And that was the nail in the coffin. Walking used to be so easy.

Tuesday 1/28/14

Max 2-positiong Clean + 1 Jerk. 185#. I don't know what was happening today. I just couldn't hit that damn hi-hang clean at 205#. 

EMOM for 5:00 - 1 2-position Clean + 1 Jerk @ 155#.

Back Squat:

1x8 @ 250#, 1x5 @ 270#, and that's when the workout stopped. My back was suddenly less than agreeable. It just couldn't take the triples. Ended the workout and headed out. Sometimes you gotta know when to call it so you can come back the next day.
