Every 90s for 10 sets do 1 Full Snatch:

  • 60% - 100#
  • 60% - 100#
  • 70% - 120#
  • 70% - 120#
  • 80% - 135#
  • 80% - 135#
  • 85% - 145#
  • 85% - 145#
  • 90% - 150#

For Time:

  • 80 DUs
  • 20 FR Lunge 115#
  • 40 Pull Ups
  • 20 FR Lunge 115#
  • 80 DUs

I am having a bit of bursitis or something in my right shoulder so I modified my workout today to avoid overhead movements and save my shoulder for Saturday.

Therefore, I did Front Squats using 180# (80% of my current theoretical max) and did 2 reps each time everyone else did 1 snatch, for a total of 20 reps. This weight felt quite easy and was likely too light. Looking forward to getting some true 1RMs established.

For the MetCon, I scaled the double unders to tuck jumps, the weight on the lunges to 95#, and ring rows instead of the pull ups.

I nearly died! It took me 12:43 to finish and I was beat. My lungs felt better on a different inhaler (Pulmacort instead of the Flovent I had been taking), but I am also redlining way too early as I jump out of the gate on these MetCons way to fast instead of pacing myself.
