Murphy’s law. I did squats yesterday so they were programmed today.

I did the clean complex from the day before and today’s metcon.

1RM of 185 – struggled to maintain good form today so I didn’t push it.
A1: 95/95/105/105/115/115
A2: 125/135/145
A3: 155/165/175

Scaled to 80lbs for thrusters and moved at more of a walking speed while I heal up from the strep.
B: 3 rounds exactly.

My first “real” workout involving legs and back squatting since my disc injury before Christmas… So, nothing special, but I am trying to just ease into my workouts again: A: Lots of warmup sets at 45-55 kg, 3 sets 6 reps at 60kg. Felt good, but my legs were shaking after! B: Just 3rds… It felt like my body was protesting, and that it was scared to let me do things with high intensity. Within the first round my legs felt like jello, and I felt totally fatigued/destroyed after this workout, but at least I slept for 9 hours after,… Read more »

She did 10 th @55, 15 bj @21 (weird plate stacking), 400m run with the dogs which involved pee breaks and car sniffing so that slowed her quite a bit ?

Early morning strength session (C&J) today and I decided to follow it up this afternoon with
today’s B:
4rds + 10 Rx
I agree with Chris M that the 2nd round of box jumps was quite revealing. Felt great though, probably the strongest I’ve ever felt on 95# thrusters

Didn’t let myself rest much except for a few seconds before the thrusters. Probably shouldn’t have stopped at all!

Well, injured by the end of the first half (harmstring). Hopefully, the recovery won’t be too long. Lost 11-6 (Indoor soccer).

Teaching yoga next. Yay!
