CrossFit log for Tuesday. August 23rd

Low volume day. Thankfully.

Warm up was 5 minutes of 5 burpees (yuck), 5 pull ups (yay) and 30 double-unders (meh)

Again with the dynamic stretching and handstand walk progressions. I was going to try a freestanding handstand in the middle of the floor, which wasn't too bad, but unstable, so I used the instability to try and walk, and managed a few feet.  So yay me.

Then we did a 10 minute EMOM of 6 touch and go power snatch. Just like 2 weeks ago. Upped it to 75# from 65#, got rough at the end. But I managed to hold form. Focus was on bar path and catching under the bar. Got praise on both points from coach Nikki.

Finished up with 4 sets of 8 back squats. Same weight each set.  Focus was on bar path.
Used 195# (60℅-65℅ of max).

Good choice, only started to fall apart on the last few reps on the last set. Praised again for form and bar path.

Nice to not be exhausted, and to be praised for quality of movement.
