Went for Max Push Press. I don't think I've ever tried for my 1 rep max, so it's automatically a PR!
I've
 done WODs with push press and strength work with multiple reps, but 
never 1 rep. Going over my old entries, the most I seem to have ever put
 over head is 105#.
We were to warm up then do 7 sets of 5-3-3-2-1-1-1
Started
 with 75# for 5, then jumped to 95# for 3 and 115# for 3, not a problem.
  The guys I was working with were both stronger (maxed out at 205#!!!) 
so we jumped up again to 145#, I tried, twice but there was no way. Went
 back down to 135# and nailed it.  Did it again after a 2 min break. So 
push press one rep max found, and it's 135#. 
Not huge but more than I thought I could do. I'll take it.
Naturally the WOD had push press.
10 min AMRAP
5 push press 115#
10 knees to elbows
5 push ups.
After
 2 rounds I had to drop the weight to 95# (should've started with 105#, 
women's Rx, and likely would've been fine).  Still only managed 4 
rounds. Brutal.
I'm thinking tabata at lunch, then some stretching.
