3:50
Didn’t go all out. Took my time on the Burpee Muscleups
Went at game pace. Tried to work on a powerful dip with hips.
Also worked on dropping from top and going right into burpee.
Slight pause, then did the muscleup.

Misunderstood this and went directly into part 2

T2B - 10/8/2

Row - Just held on. I was hurting BAD at this point.

No rest made this very difficult. I was a little sloppy but good to
practice the movements under full fatigue.
I realize now that might not have been point today.
With plenty of rest part 2 would have been almost 3-4 minutes faster.

5/14/13 - AM Training + PM Training

AM
1K row @ jackie pace
rest 2 min
1K row time trial

3:25

Rest 2 min

3:05
First row didn't feel very smooth. Legs felt like they started to burn way too early. Was a little out more out of breathe. I'm fine with it though, because I realized that once I'm off the rower there is less than 2 minutes of work left during Jackie. 

Settled back down pretty quickly for the second row. Started strong and held a 1:31 for the majority of the start. Just kept counting to 10. I never fell off and finished strong. It's not a pr, and I don't know if I was supposed to be close to setting a pr but it hurt like a son of a bitch and it felt good. Happy with this session.


PM
A. TnG Squat Clean - build to a 5RM in max 5 sets

225, 255, 275, 285, 300X (4/5)
Really fired up during this. Flat ran out of gas on the 5th clean at 300.
Still pretty damn happy with that.

+
for time:
100 WB's at game pace
100 CTB chin ups at game pace

11:10

60/20/10/10 on wallballs - 3:44, slower
These felt much harder today than on Saturday.

CTB's - 7:07 - slower
15/10/10/6/ some 5's a bunch of 4's, then 3's, some 2's and singles….
Grip felt strong today, pulling felt like shit. I mean aweful.
I think this was slower than Friday night and it was wayyy harder.
I tried to keep the rest short but it just wasn't there. I was smoked by the end of this.
I was mentally ready to do well, body just didn’t want to today. Still glad to get the work in.

5/12/13 - AM Testing + PM Testing

AM
Event 6:
For Time:
100 Double Unders
50 HSPU
40 T2B
30 S2O - 160# Axle
90' Walking lunge - Front Rack Axle

10:35
This hurt bad. Well, it was fine until the S2O and lunge.

DU's UB under :60
HSPU's were 20/10/5/5/5/5, took about 2:30, all kip
T2B - 15/10/8/7, took around 1:30
S2O - 10/5/5/5/5 - Felt like long breaks. Probably go to all 5's next time.
Lunges - broke 3 times. Took over 2 minutes. Bad mental breakdown here.
Kept trying to fold arms in front rack because I though it would help. No Go.
Rolled out twice.

I felt like I got through most of the movements well. I just need to be mentally
stronger on the s2o and lunge.
Once again, didn’t feel like I had any fight in me today. Hard to go "there".
This one hurt the most thus far. I don't feel like I've done anythign this painful
in months. Took me a while to recover.




PM
Event 7:
4 Rounds for time:
2 rope climbs - 15'
run 100'
4 squat cleans - 225#
run 100'

5:35

Rope climbs felt pretty good. The rope is short so it was swinging all over the place causing problems. I would like to work on the technique I was using today a bit more. It's much faster.

Slow jog between barbell and rope. All singles on barbell. Felt fine. I will try to tng on last round next time. I think I could shave :30 off of this time with some faster running. This one was really fun today. Felt good to end here.

5/11/13 - AM Swim + PM Training
