Crossfit log for Wednesday, December 17th

Thought I was more recovered.  That shouldn't have sucked that bad.

Oh well, done is done.

Started with back squats  3 sets of 10, 8, 6 increasing weight as necessary to make it challenging but not to failure.

Plan was to do 10 @ 205#, 8 @ 215, and 6 at 225#.   I was working with Kevin and his plan was to do the last set at 225#.  I assumed the rest of his plan was the same as mine.

When he did 185#, I assumed it was a warm up set, but apparently not.  I did 8 reps.  At 205# I guess he did 8 reps, I wasn't counting, I did my 10.  Then he went up to 225#,  so I figured the 205# went so well he was upping his game. I did my 8, and as I was going to add more weight, coach said there was no time for another set, time to start the dead lifts.  So I was like, okay, fine.  I'll count the 185# for 8 as a working set.  So I did 8, 10, 8 at 185#, 205#, 225#.  Not bad after heavy squat day.

Dead lifts was the same deal, 10, 8, 6

Started at 225#, same as Kevin.  He went to 255#, but I decided at the last second to go 275# for 8.  He kept the 275# for his last set.  I was going to stay there too, but seeing the strong guys going really heavy, I decided to go 305# for the last set.  A bit ambitious.  After 4 reps I was perfectly happy to call it quits.

The WOD would be no fun.
5 rounds for time of
- Thrusters @ 95# (scaled to 75#) 25-20-15-20-5
- double unders  50-40-30-20-10  (scaled to half)

After the first round I was already shaking. I was going to do all the double unders, but I couldn't find a rhythm the first round and took forever to get to 25 that I just decided to scale since I wasn't doing Rx anyway with the thrusters.

Still wasn't fun.  Finished in 14:24
