I Should Be Resting

Tired. Was falling asleep with the laptop on top of me in my chair, but went in for open gym.

Bench Press

Starting a new cycle with Kevin, so it was a 5×5 today. Did 8 at 135# and then 5 reps at each of 155#, 175#, 185#, 195#, and 205#. I was not feeling the lifts and last cycle I only hit 2 at 205#, so I was thrilled to get all 5 today.

Heaving Snatch Balance

I wanted to get above my snatch max, but probably took too small of jumps, which tired me out. Went 75#, 85#, 95#, 105#, 115#, 125#, 135#, 145#, missed at 155#, 155#, and a miss at 160#. The plan was to get in 10-15 singles and that was 11. Was pretty fatigued at that point, so stopped before getting hurt.

Double Unders

I made an attempt at the “Flight Simulator” which is an unbroken DU ladder WOD. You have to hit 5 unbroken DUs, stop, then 10 unbroken DUs, stop, and so on all the way up to 50, then back down the ladder. Each ladder jump is 5 reps. I made it up to 35 before I decided to come back down. I was failing too many times on the attempts at 30 and 35. Coming back down went so much faster than going up. My time was 14:51 for the 35 Flight Sim. I’ll take it since I hadn’t even been able to make it up to 25 in a mini flight sim before.
