Strength was a jerk complex. Good thing I did those heavy push press yesterday at lunch! Not.
I'll stop complaining now. I have to resign myself to the fact than I cannot predict what Crossfit will throw at me, so I'll just train what I can, what I feel can use more work and just deal with the fallout.
Nutrition plan continues.
So strength work, worked with Andrew, who is my age and just a stronger guy, but he'd been away from Crossfit for a few months and is just getting back into it, so he was going easy.
work up to 3 working sets of
- 2 power jerks + 2 split jerks at 60-65% of max, did 125#
then three sets of
- 1 power jerk + 2 split jerks at 70-75% of max, did 135#
was glad when it was over.
WOD was no fun. (is it ever)
5 rounds for time
- 10 unbroken thrusters Rx was 105#, but I was happy to be able to do 95#
- 5-10 unbroken chest to bar pull ups, find a number you can do for 5 rounds
- rest 90 seconds
Thrusters were actually okay. 105# might have been doable. Only got 3 ctb first rounds, regrouped and did 5 each subsequent round.
The rest made the thrusters manageable. Last round still sucked though.
To "cash out" we were supposed to do 3 rounds of 30 double unders / 15 burpees.
I was wiped and ran out of time at 1 round + 8 double unders.
Done.
