METCON:  here is where i ran into trouble. warmed up power snatch up to an OK 175 power snatch (my current PR is 180 and that was with straps). started the clock and missed 185 3 times in a row, so i cut it back to 175, which i promptly missed 3 times again. cut it back to 155 on the first round so i could move past it... second round tried 165 and missed 3 times, tries 155 missed three times. went for 135 again, just so i could get past the round. rounds 3 and 4 i did at 155, and round 5 i finally hit 165.

arguably the most frustrating part of an already frustrating week. every miss was not high enough for a power AND out in front. Ironically on my warm ups i almost missed 165 and 175 behind me.

Tuesday- Bending + MAP Runs + Row test
A. RDL to below knee cap @ 22X1, 5 x 3 tough reps, use straps, rest 2 min
+
Run 400m @ 80%, rest/walk 1:30 min x 6
+
5 rounds for time:
Row 300m
7 Burpee Over Rower 

A) 185, 235, 255, 275, 295. Could feel my back starting to round as I held the bottom position at 295... That was probably my limit today with mostly good technique. 

1) 2:04
2) 1:48
3) 3:00- shins and calves just blew up... Ended up walking the last 100m. 
They also were cramping a lot on Saturday but I was able to finish that one. Not today. Just painful. Going to a Chiro Friday to see if they can help release what ever is going on in there. 

5 rounds
10:03
The rows felt good actually, burpees sucked because I just could not jump. Landing was especially painful. Ended up stepping over on the last 3 rounds.
