    1. Nice work Michael! Glad to see you back posting. Last Friday when you weren't on here had lots of folks worried and desperately looking for words of encouragement that you usually provide lol!

      I think lots of folks including myself are doing Sunday's work on Monday... I really needed that one full day off, with no work and no wod. Mental break more than anything.

      Happy training everyone!}

    3. Nice work Michael... For sucking in the snatch and c2b's you definitely make up for it in some strength!!! 231 & 6 Rnds are awesome!!!

    5. I did the competition with a few guys from our gym. It was more for fun than placement, but I learned a lot and enjoyed the experience.

  10. I am away for the next few days so rubbed my crystal ball to see what was coming up. Madame Wodbuster, my local clairvoyant, came up with the following:

    Snatch Complex-
    Power snatch + snatch balance. + OHS. I worked up to 125#.

    Coach Ben, if that snatch complex doesn't appear tomorrow I will be forced to fire the charlatan that is Madame Wodbuster.

    Clean Compelx ~ 205# ...couldn't even get 225# from High Hang...
    FS ~ 4 Rnds

    Crap...I felt like Crap the entire time. Row was 3:35...a full minute before I even attempted the Squat Snatch (all Singles w/ drops). Didn't finish snatches until 15:00...Just way to long!!! Low back was just numb after the first 15 reps...

  21. Worked on the following Monday night:
    1. Clean Complex
    Work up to a max effort: Clean Deadlift + Hang Squat Clean (mid thigh) + Low Hang Squat Clean (below knee)
    Worked up to 175#, I tried 185#, think I could have had it but I did some weird breathing and thus failed my second hang clean...

    2. With a partner, 5 rounds each of:
    15 KB Swings @ 53#
    10 Lateral burpee over box (those lateral burpee over boxes are fast but smoke the legs)
    Time: 12:01min

    3. With a partner complete 3000m on the ski erg while the other partner pushes the prowler 60m @ 70#
    No idea how long this took but it was just awful, lats and tri's were screaming

    4. Partner had to teach so had to do the next part on my own. Was supposed to be 3000m rowing with the same prowler pushes. Halved it to 1500m, did 500m row at a time and 3 prowler pushes between each row.

    I was toast after all this, especially given that all of the above work is nothing I like. Fun stuff!
