Crossfit log for Thursday, March 12th

Hard one this morning

Started with 5 sets of 3 push press.

I figured my usual workout would call for 85% of max for this rep scheme, which would be 155#. I then considered that I haven't tested my push press max in a while, so went with 165#. Roughly 90% of current max.

That was rough.  But I made it through all 5 sets.  My second rep of each set was my best.

Then we did a short heavy chipper for time:
- 20 front squats 205#/145# from the floor (scaled to 185#)
- 30 box jumps 30"/ 24"
- 40 kettle bell swings 24kg/ 16kg
- 50 wall balls 20#/14#

I could have handled the squats at 205#, but not cleaning that weight more than once, so unless I went unbroken that wasn't happening. Even 185# was really heavy.  Did 10, 6 and 4. The last clean was horrendous, but I did it.

Box jumps were okay after the first few of wobbly legs.

KB swings were okay, did 13, 13 and 14

Wall balls were rough, at the end like that, did 4 sets of 10.

Finished last in 14:05, I figure if I'm not last, I scaled too much. So good workout.
