Sled walks ate my lunch. Started with an additional 50# in the "sled" (I used a very large tire) and felt fine for 100m.

7:11 minutes. That kicked my butt. Lol!





Sunday-
Off

But since I had to "coach" open gym...

30 min MAP 10 AD as I watched the Texans get CRUSHED by the Dolphins... Good Fantasy week tho. Lol!

10 mins... First 4 were in 2:15, hit the wall there. 

B. 2:45 15,15,10,4,4,2 just ran out of juice to finish that last set of 10.... I was thinking 2-2:15 till that last set. 

1) 5:55 2:10 split

185x 3 done

Besides that up to 220 felt solid, 230 I got pinned a bit on the first one, second was arguably my best lift. 240 was crashing on me. I was beating the bar to the hole yet my elbow turn over was super slow. 

Metcon
2+64 DUs
Had a terrible du night. Shoulders felt super tired and and hands were not rotating evenly, left hand was moving faster than my right for whatever reason. Rope kept hitting me in the back of the head :/

225

Got pinned back a few times on the 215, 
And had a weird rotation thing going on the 225, my left foot moved back with me but my right foot did not, made the catch very uncomfortable on my right knee and right wrist.... It was just a long night I think. Much later than my usual training time. Just gona get some sleep and try again tomorrow.
