26:27

[I]I thought this would be an easy one. But it's the Open, and it's not!! I tried much of the strategies, but it was still brutal. I did the 1st set of thrusters with 11 straight. That was a mistake. I should have broken them up earlier and been more consistent. I was only glad I didn't try this Friday or Saturday. My DOMS was so bad from subbing 20# DB Thrusters last week on the 12.4/13.3 Open.

4/1 WOD
“Grace”
30 Clean & Jerks for time, 135/95

6:37 (power clean)
Wanted to get right around 6:00 and was on schedule until last rep. HIt the 30th clean at about 6:00 but could not get jerk up. Tried twice but had to drop bar. Came back after 30 second rest and nailed it. Disappointing result since I liked my time through the first 29. Pretty good results out of 6 a.m. class this morning.

You'll get it next time!

Gotta get me some of that.

Wednesday April 2, 2014

Held a goblet squat for two minutes.
Was going to do deadlifts up to 20x225.
I had nothing, so I did 5x135 and 5x135.

Did Snatch and C&J technique practice at 65# and 95#.
That's all I had.

Did some push presses with dumbells, then conceded that I need a rest day.
