Wednesday, January 5th

I want to start by saying that I am completely disappointed with myself today. I did two workouts, but didn't finish either one of them.

METcon #1
20 Burpees
20 Chest-to-Bar Pull-ups
** 3 Rounds for time **

GT 1 rd. 2:37

METcon #2
5 min AMRAP
4 Power Cleans (135lbs)
8 Single-arm Snatch (40lb KB)
12 Double Unders
** 5 Rounds; Rest 1 min. between each round **

GT Round 1 (3 rounds 9 reps); Round 2 (2 Rounds) DNF

My mental state just wasn't there today. I felt sorry for myself the minute I stepped into the gym. I may take an active rest day tomorrow with some running and stretching.
