Happy with this day in many ways. Was hoping for sub 5 for the burpees, trying to go Tabata style 10 reps every round but only lasted 60 reps. Not disappointed though.
Snatch was ugly and with both a broad landing and some after press, I’ll count it anyway and am really pleased with this considering how hard it been for me to get my issues to cope with this lift since the crash.
Event 3 just cleaned me (haha), heavy bar for me so legs didn’t wanna move as fast as I wanted to. MU’s really easy and unbroken, good stuff, sold my self short by not pushing harder though. 4 rounds should have been my shame level..
In the PM the monkey business stuff was a lot of fun, box jumps and push press, not so much. TTB, whyyy do I always fail on getting my feet behind the bar on the second rep of each set? Grip was pretty smoked but think I did what I could kind of.
Run/HSPU was ridiculous, was hoping for sub 15.. Runs where easy and around 3’20/3’10/3’00, just died the pressing death in the HSPU. Considering shoulders was pretty smoked already at the start of the day, this wasn’t a surprise. Tried to kip a few but seriously looks like a bug trying to get back from his back when doing that. Maybe something I should practice though..?
All in all ok scores, more importantly than that. I can handle this load without feeling too smashed, none of the old injuries are whining and I feel like I am getting closer to finding my highest gear. Said it before, but it needs to be said over and over again, Outlaw f#cking rocks!
Namaste!
