[I][B]100326 FRIDAY

[/B][/I][I]FINALLY think I might have shaken the stomach bug. Today was the best I have felt in a workout in quite a while![/I]

[/B][/I]400m Run
25 DROM

[/B]Worked up to and got [B]305# [/B]as a 1RM. (10# PR since my reset). :pepper:
[I][B]
WOD: "Randy"
[/B][/I][B]For Time:
[/B][B]75 X Power Snatch @ 75#/45#
[/B]I scaled and used [B]55#[/B] because my snatch technique sucks, plain and simple.
[B]TIME: 7:42[/B]
My first ever "Randy." I enjoyed this WOD and will enjoy it even more when I learn to get under the bar. Felt the 55# was a good starting weight and allowed for good intensity. Some technique work and I should be able to do this one Rx'd.
