100M Farmers Carry 2Pood

2 + ad and 3 pc's

Grip, had to break a lot on farmers carry, hips got tired on cleans but they were ok. I screwed up the weight on cleans and had to change it after doing 10 at 95lbs. I redid the cleans on that round. This process slowed me down a lot.

30 UB Double Unders (no more than 3 attempts though)

3 + 16cals

Did the snatches in 2 sets. I did dbl unders but put most of the weight on my right leg because of my calf. 

Grip is tired and so are hamstrings. Felt kinda slow and tired. It's 9am and I haven't eaten and didn't each much last night so that is probably why.

Day 1 
A. Snatch Pull 3x3 Video  (stay light if you need to and make sure you are getting those knees out of the way.)

205 x3

Day 20
20 Min AMRAP
20 Thrusters @ 135
20 Pull ups
20 Burpees

3 + 52 reps. 

So close to 4... Was shooting for 4 rounds. I was pretty happy with my pacing but wish I would have rested 20secs less and I would have finished the round. Easy to say now. 

First round was about about 3:30, 2nd about 5, then about 6 and 6. This is about what I planned on. Knew I would start strong and the. Die off. 

Did 10,5,5 for the first round of thrusters. Then all 5's for the rest. They got hard at the end but I never did less then 5. Shoulders hurt. 

Did 10 and 10 on pullups, except lady round I started to break up more after 10. Mental- tired. Should have held on. 

Did all the burpees slow and unbroken. 

Pretty happy overall with my planning and sticking to it but wish I would have finished the round

Was really hard on grip and low back. I totally paced everything. Maybe to much. But judging by how tired I was on the cleans- it was probably right. Took some time to change weights and maybe another 30 seconds from being in the way of the class. Not sure what you expected on this??
