10 lunge w/ twist, each leg
10 kettlebell swings, 1.5 pood

10 knees to elbow
10 pushups

"Nancy"

5 rounds
400m run
15 OHS, 95#

16:15

This is probably my worst "Nancy" ever. Hips were really tight today, which made running even more of a chore than usual. Also, I picked a bad spot on the parking lot for my OHS's; I kept having to pause to keep my bar from rolling away before starting my runs.

3 x 10 each

OHS, 45#
glute-ham raise
GHD situps
pullups
ring dips

Hang Power Clean and Jerk x 1

135-155-175-195-205-225-235(x3)

Due to a brain fart while changing plates, I only increased by 10# after the 195 set. I didn't realize until after I'd hit the 225, thinking it was 235 (I had a bunch of small plates on there). I think if I'd tried 235 a set sooner I could have hit it.

5 x 200m sprint, rest as needed

31.85-31.76-30.00-33.85-33.65

I would have liked to rest a little longer before the last two sprints, but I had to teach a class and was running short on time. My legs were starting to get really stiff.

No PR today. I lost some time because I didn't double check my rings. I noticed after the first 7 that they were slightly uneven. Transition was a little off today and I kept breaking my feet.

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

Hey Chris, some great work going on here! Figured I would drop in and say hey. I plan on starting my log sometime in the next few days. Ill hit you up again once I do. Great seeing you at the Qual.....

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!

Total: 29:17 (9th)

Obviously, the row and the run/ohs/box jump wod's are what killed me. I don't like to use it as a cruch, but I was sick for a week going into the qual's (still am) and my lungs were shot. The bottom line is, I missed qualifying by 1 minute. That's 15 seconds per workout. Sick or not, 15 sec isn't much. I could have done better. Now, it looks like I might have a second chance. Time to train harder and do what I can to fix these weak spots.
