Crossfit log for Tuesday, December 16th

Wasn't quite ready to go back to class but after running into Lana on the bus yesterday evening and chatting about it, I decided, why not. I don't have to go all out, just do some work.

Started with a DT complex for max weight unbroken.(cannot let go of the bar).
-12 dead lifts
-9 hang power cleans
-6 shoulder to over head

Coach suggested building up using 9-6-3 until it started to get heavy. So I did one warm up set at 75#, 12-9-6 and that seemed okay. Then I did 95# for 9-6-3 which was much harder.

So I figured add the 15s for 125# and give it a go.  Yeah. No.  Died on the power cleans. 

95# might have been doable, I've done way heavier for DT, but not unbroken, but I wasn't interested in trying.  Grip strength was gone and we still had the WOD.  At least I did the first warm up set and got a number on the board.

WOD was simple enough:
5 rounds for time, 6-9-12-9-6 of
- handstand push ups
- pull ups
- box jumps 24" box
- dead lifts 155# (scaled to 135#)

First round went well.  Used one abmat for the hspu. 6 of anything is doable. Round 2 got really hard, struggled with the last 4 hspu.  Had to run to the bathroom to blow my nose.  Nothing clears your sinuses like a hspu/box jump combo.  Grabbed an extra abmat for the rest of the workout.

Hspu were the limiter for sure.  Finished in 15:57.

Was way harder than it should've been. Still recovering I guess.
