No 🙁 . I went 20/4/3/2/1
I was actually wondering should this be faster than grace ?

I don’t think I can do this unbroken but for sure can push harder towards the end. I really was hurting on the last 6 reps. Everything was burning.

2nd Session A. Isabelle- 1:45 (PR is 1:37) grip came loose around rep 18 and messed everything up, had to stop to re-chalk, should have taped my thumbs up. Dumb mistake B. Aerobic just for completion 1- 6:53 2- 6:30 3- 5:30 **Was toying around with different paces to see what was ideal for the 1k row, obvi the last one worked out the best. Here are my notes for the best row -0-100M hard (1:35ish) for 10 pulls -1-200M 1:45 ish -2-500M 1:50-55 ish -500-600M 1:35 for 10 pulls -600-750M 1:45 ish -750-800M 1:35 (hard) for 5 pulls -800-… Read more »

Shoulders, back, and glutes are BEAT UP from this week.

Strength:
A. 2FS+J= 255 (80%) x 8
B. 2:50 Rx First time doing Isabel
C. 255

Conditioning:
A. 19:20 Rx (pretty much did it for completion)

Might need to focus on the intensity during the primaries and cut down volume of optional work.
