Good day at the box.
Started with clean and jerk, work up to 1 heavy single at 85% of max. I hit 175# very nicely, which is 90% of my current max (which need to be retested soon).
Then we did dead lifts. Find new 1 rep max.
Having done this just last week and failing to meet my goal of 355# I was eager to try again. Last time I couldn't even get it off the ground. This time it went up unhesitatingly.
I was surprised. Last time must've been completely mental. And perhaps fatigue, having just PR'd at 345#.
I jumped from 335# to 355# this time. No discomfort.
Then we did the WOD which I slogged through.
A short chipper of :
40 calorie row
50 wall balls
20 hand stand push ups (scaled to 10 reps and 1 abmat and 1 small plate)
It was a bit of a mess since we did a staggered start and the wall balls and the hspu are pretty much in the same area, except 4 wall ball stations on the rig. I wasted a lot of time finding a spot to squeeze in between some folks on hspu for a few reps when finally one of the rig stations freed up. From that point on it was no problems.
Finished in 9:15. Could've been faster, but I wasn't pushing it, I was just happy about the PR dead lift.
