Score 17 rounds 6 reps

This was my first workout of the year. It went ok, I was hoping for 210lbs on the power clean, but maybe another time. I went from 200lbs straight to 210...the jump was too big I guess. The METcon wasn't too bad. Looking to get back into the gym tomorrow.

My legs are dead today and we started with tabata box jumps. I did 19 jumps the 1st 4 rounds but I couldn't keep the pace. Tabata scores the lowest round you record in the 20 sec interval, 15 was mine. The 1st METcon combines my 2 least favorite movements in crossfit, KB swings and wall climbs. I was feeling pretty sorry for myself in this one. I should have gotten a lot better score, but I was just blah today. I woke up 20 minutes before I had to be there, that was a bad idea.

METcon

Team "Jackie"

1000m row

50 thrusters (45lbs)

Jackie, was done as a team today. There was four of us, everyone did the entire workout, but you couldn't start rowing until the person in front of you finished rowing and so on. I have no idea what my time would have been. I brought in the anchor for our team. I was happy with the warm-up, I did all 75 air squats unbroken at a pretty good pace. I still felt like crap after the workout. Celebrating the end of school has taken me 2 days to recover. I am staying away from drinking for awhile..ha

15 pull-ups

Time 10:17

Todays workout was a forearm nightmare. After the workout it hurt to open my hands. The worst part of the workout is by far the SDHP. Its just an awkward movement for me. I would like to clean underneath it or something, but just pulling it up and going back down with your feet in a sumo stance...not a fan. Tomorrow will be an off day more than likely. I have two finals left and I'm done for the semester!

Warm-up

21-15-9

burpees

walking lunges

Time 4:40

METcon

**3 RFT **

25 ceiling wall balls (20lb ball; 11 ft target roughly)

800m run

25 handstand push-ups

Time 43:35

This workout was rough. Well, it was just the handstand push-ups that just physically became almost impossible. The run and wall balls were just there, I had to take so much time resting on the handstand push-ups that its wasn't taxing on my cardio, just my shoulders. This is what your head looks like when it touches the ground 75 times. Back at it tomorrow!
