Crossfit log for Friday, September 14th

Solid workout today.

Close grip bench press again (yuck, at least give me regular bench press)!!

Made it to 1 RM of 155# this time on my second attempt. New PR!

Then we did Jackie:

Row 1000m
50 thruster @ 45#
30 pull ups.

My previous best was 13:55, I smashed it! Finishing in 10:26.

I paced my self well on the row, starting at just under 2:00/500m and holding almost to the end (instead of my usual first 300m at 1:45/500m and fading to 2:10-2:15 for the rest), so my time was same as usual but my legs weren't destroyed for the thrusters.

Decided to do 5 sets of 10 for the thrusters, but I was feeling so good I kept going, but thankfully I caught myself on #11 and took a break, the second 10 was just as easy, the 3rd, not so much, the 4th ended up being 2 sets of 5, but I was able to string together 10 to finish it out. Although I felt really strong for the first 20, you deteriorate very quickly, even with only 45#.

Same deal on the pull ups, 3 sets of 10. First two, no problem, then I got to the third set and there was 9:40 on the clock. I thought for a minute I could break 10:00, but after only 5, it was already 9:55, so I dropped of the bar, regrouped and hammered out the last 5.

Solid. 2 PRs.  Halo in place. Now for two days off Crossfit (just a couple of long runs).
