A. Worked up to 205#x5 on BS.

B. Went with #95. Really need to find someone to help with my lifting form. Garage taught and struggle with thrusters. Can do 95# x 5 unbroken but it feels heavy and strange going up!

5 rounds solo at 10:06

A. @tempo 6x 165 175 185 195, 4×205
B. Fun night in my gym, not solo for once. Paired with my 2 cousins (team of 3) and my wife was doing fitness synced with my round.
Total time: 17:27
I scaled to 125# for thrusters only. Was able to get all UB but barely, heaviest Ive used to far so I’m happy. Took me about 1:00 to 1:05 per round so I was told. One guy went rx’d and one guy used 95#.
Legs toasted all around!
C. 6 min plank
Have a good night!

Up to 155# x5, looking better

B. Shoulder feeling better, so I just scaled this one down for weight (95# PC, 65# thruster), did alone so did a round every 3 minutes, each round was around 1:25

A. 165lbx6/185×4/185×4/195×4/195×4. That tempo is rough.

B. 1:20/1:11/1:16/1:17/1:18. Rounds 1&2 scaled way down to 115lb. Then 3-5 to 125lb and that weight felt perfect. Objective was to not rest and go unbroken the whole round.

Today’s the 200th anniversary of the uruguayan navy, so we did a hero-style wod in the box

HERO “Bicentenario Armada Nacional”
– 200 squats
– 5 RxT:
* 18 deadlifts 70/50 kgs
* 17 pull ups
* 200 mts run
Timecap: 25 mins

I scaled the wod to 50 kgs and jumping pull ups; timecapped at the end of 4th round.

Completed the squats at 7:43; fortunately the DLs went very well, broke them consistently in 12/6; broke the JPUs in 10/7 except in the last round in which I did 9/8. Those runs were pure misery.

B. 2:08/1:16/1:44/1:19/1:22; scaled to 145 1st round and 135 all others. did 1 to 1 work/rest ratio. this was brutal.

Thanks. There is a reason they say teams of 3. Even with 1:1 work:rest, I was still gasping each round. 155 was out of my wheelhouse. I tried 145 and that was no good either. 135 sucked too, but I wasn’t going any lower!

It is so tempting to go too high, as power cleans feel easy. But those thrusters are the killers. My form didn’t look great at all, but I had to push through it.

B. 15:44 Rx. 800m run (4x200m), 20 pull-ups, 10 HSPU. Runs still a little slow due to jacked up left ankle.
C. 6x 1min on 30s off: zig zag dribbling drills. 2x Left foot only, right foot only, both feet. Hopefully I won’t have two bricks for feet this week!

Thanks, it felt like I was running in wet cement. You did great on today’s B. I had planned on making up yesterday’s on Sat until seeing today’s workout ?. It seemed a little more fast-twitch focused than I was ready for after a sinus infection. Not looking forward to making it up!

I appreciate the words of encouragement. I knew going into this I would have to scale. I’ve only done 135# thrusters one other time (a couple months ago in this track), so I knew 155 would crush me. Even scaled, I was all over the board time-wise, so not a great wod for me.
