Week in Review 1/13/13
Monday
Yoga at Remorca Studio.
Tuesday
The WOD was five rounds for time of five front squats at 155/225 (from the ground), three rope climbs (no feet) and 12 knees to elbows. I used 83 lbs and climbed with feet and finished in 20:38.
As a cash out, I did five sets of three sots presses at 33 lbs.
Wednesday
Oly Practice: I attempted 7 singles snatches at 63 lb. I got it three times, twice I wound up power snatching, and twice I failed. 63 lbs was a PR,* which made me very happy. This was my third one. It looks like I'm pulling early and catching high (?), but I got it.
And since I did it three times, there's probably more in the tank!
Next, I did three rounds of 12 bent over rows at 8 kg with five, then four, then three strict pull-ups between them.

Core Fusion at Exhale. (More on this soon.)
Thursday
Rest.
Friday
Cindy: 14 + 8 (PR!) My old Cindy was 12 + something, so this is exciting, especially since I did it on my own. A few weeks ago, I had said that my goal for the year was 15 rounds; I'm revising that up to 17.
Practiced double-unders and muscle-up progressions.
Saturday
Oly Practice:
Snatches: 1x58 lbs, 1x58 lbs, 1x63 lbs. (There was a failed rep at 63 lbs and an accidental power snatch at 63 lbs, too, but I didn't have my notebook out yet and don't recall the order.)
Cleans: 2x78, 1x83 lbs, 1x88 lbs, 1x93 lbs, 1x93, 1x93, lbs, 93(f), 1x93, 93(f). (My 1 rep max is 98, so I felt pretty good getting four in at 93 lbs.)
Split jerks: I did a few sets of two at 73 lbs. I kept the weight light to work on form, but I think I was just too tired at that point. My focus was shot.
Sunday
Endurance WOD: 3x 1 mile sprints with three minutes rest between.
- 7:36
- 8:02 (darn you, cat hill!)
- 7:35
Nutrition Challenge WOD: Tabata mashup of burpees and 1 pood KB swings for total reps: 127. (Somewhat sad performance. I blame the adult beverages from Saturday night .)
-Gym Belle-
*I've actually power snatched more, which is odd, but I find it a lot less scary.
