"Diane" (21-15-9 deadlift/hspu 155#)

8:15 (last 9 hspu's unbroken)

Snatch pulls felt stronger this week.  I love 'Diane'.  I looked it up in my blog record and could only find one result that I did with class at a gym.  It had a cap at 7 mins and I was in the 15 of hspu's.  So I feel like I was faster this time by a bit.  I didn't crank on the dl's that much but felt smooth and strong on the hspu's.  So excited to be off to ride endless single track and stay in our favorite little town.  Nice to be getting some life back.  Thanks!

Bike intervals


It was way too glorious of a day to be inside on an Airdyne (not to mention, it was my birthday :).  So we went riding outside.  About 2 hours of fun, mayne 45 mins of climbing in one stretch.   Thanks!

E. HS walk tech work 15 min

I think my nervous system is a little shot.  Not to mention my quads and traps and upper back are sore.  Feels kinda good tho.  Strength felt low but I feel like I made some progress on hips to rings.  I watched that video I posted and saw how I lose my tension as I go and worked on staying tighter.  Hips to bar is utterly terrible.  I don't know if I'm just weak or totally don't know what to do.  HS practice went just okay.  Thanks!

Workout:

Open workout 16.5 (thrusters/burpees)

19:04

I recall all the times I've done this workout vividly.  It always hurts.  I'm guessing this was my fourth go 'round.  The only time I've found in my blog was from January 2015 and it was 21:00.  Pretty stoked to be fitter five years later.  It was awesome having Marc to chase in this one too.  He got ahead of me from the beginning but I stayed steady and passed him somewhere in the 9's.  Kept me motivated and on task.  Thanks!

Workout:

TTT throwdown 48

7 min amrap:
9 CTB
6 S2O 85#
9 box jumps 20"

3 rounds plus 6 CTB


+ oly lifting work



Felt like my CTB held up a little better this week.  The S2O felt easy enough each round.  Box jumps I just tried to keep even paced in order not to blow up before the CTB.  Was fun!  Good oly lifting practice session.  Stayed moderate weight, worked singles and hitting good positions.  Thanks!

Though short, this was spicy.  80% is just at that struggle point and 15 rounds of it got me working for sure.

Hip to rings was about the same as last week but at least it's feeling more familiar.  I watched some more videos on how to kip ring dips but can't say I'm slick at it.  A work in progress.  Struggled to do more than 1-2 TTB after being out of breath each round of the wod.  Great practice.  Double unders went really easy though.  Did this tonight instead of bike intervals because I felt like I had more time/focus tonight than I likely will tomorrow.  Thanks!
