NOTES:
** just want to note today, how mental this workout is! - last night was back to school night, and I was thinking this morning of what I should have/ could have said!  Also I was thinking about how much of the workout I had left, and that I was running late, since the High School bus came late today. So my head wasn't totally in the game today.... argh again!

Timed Progressions

Buy in:
  • TGU
  • 12kg
  • 3l/3r

WOD:
  • 1/2 snatch (14kg)
  • 4 rounds level 4
  • 7l/7r each round

  • clean - did the long cycle clean
  • 4 rounds level 4
  • 1st round: 16kg 8l/8r
  • 2-4th round: 14kg 9l/9r, 8l/8r, 8l/8r

  • bottoms up clean (8kg)
  • 2 rounds level 4
  • 1st round: 8l/8r
  • 2nd round: 6l/7r

NOTES:
* todays workout was hard - hardest exercise was the clean!!! that surprised me, I thought it would be the bottoms up clean!=)
* first time I've ever done the bottoms up clean, I liked it, but it was hard to hold it a beat at the top - sometimes it tipped over.
* last round of 1/2 snatches, form was beginning to suffer, if I had to go more rounds, I would have dropped to the 12kg.
* when noting each round, number is consistent for both minutes of the round (i.e. clean 8l/8r - consistently cleaned 8l/8r for both minutes of the round.)
