Crossfit log for Wednesday, November 12th

A bit more tiring than yesterday.

Started with a 16 minute EMOM of
- 3 power cleans (touch and go)
- 3 deficit handstand push ups  (or harder than you normally do)

First 2 rounds did 135# on the power cleans.  and 15# plates on the hspu. 

Went well.  So I upped the power cleans to 155# for two rounds. At this point Kyle and Justin dropped from 185# to 155# realizing the bit off more than they could chew, so I didn't feel so bad dropping back to 135# for the rest.

Also on round 4 the whole deficit thing wasn't working any more so I went to level (still harder than I usually do) for the second half and that worked well.

Then we did dead lifts, 4 sets of 2. Did 275#  The heaviest I've done since my PR in September.  It was tough, but not impossible. Ran out of time so I had to count my last warm up at 225# as a working set.

The workout was a partner WOD.  Share the work, 12 minute AMRAP:

- 30 toes to bar (while partner hangs on bar)
- 40 front squats (bar cannot touch the ground or start over)
- 50 dead lifts (while partner hold lock out on dips bar)

Worked with Natasha.

First round we did sets of 5 t2b each but only dropped off the bar after we had both done our 5. And for the squats we did 10 each, then the dead lifts we did 15 each then 10 each.

Yeah, that wasn't sustainable.  T2B we still did sets of 5 each, but dropped off the bar after each 5.  Squats dropped to sets of 5, and that was still horrible. 

Time was running out, and came off the dip bar after only 12 reps by Nat, so I jumped on the bar hand hammered out 11 before the buzzer.

So 1 full round and 93 reps.  Can't complain.  Really worked those t2b, having someone hanging on the bar waiting for you to finish is motivation enough to power through sets of 5.
