Alone tonight so I did Invictus. A: tied current max at 125lb but could not get 130. B: Rx 14:39 About halfway through the first row my body was asking for a potty break. No way that was happening so I rowed and wall balled with cramps. I think overall it cost me about 20 seconds. Huh, my dad was right. Once you start getting older all you talk about was what you ate for lunch and a quality BM. I must not be quite there yet. I didn’t tell you what I had for lunch. It was a bowl… Read more »

Did yesterdays. A. Did a bunch of light warm ups, and worked with two bars because I could. HC – 75, 85, 105, 115, 125, 130 (thought I was doing 135, but forgot the 2nd plate. ?). Clean – 105, 115, 125, 135, 145 f, 140, 150 matched my PR. Felt pretty good on the cleans. Tested the DB squat snatch with several different weights. B. 25# DB – squat snatch 9:29 Got slowed down by having to stop and talk to kids who were all with me. (Ages 6, 4 & 20 months. ) probably about 20 – 30… Read more »

A. Shoulder Press 20X1 (OT3M)
95×3, 145×2, 160×1, 180×1, 195×1 (5# PR)
B. Hang Clean + Clean (OT2M)
175, 185, 195, 205, 215, 225 (10# PR from the hang)
… my legs wimpered when I read today’s metcon – Monday’s tempo squats left a mark. That last shoulder press took like 4 seconds to lockout – great fight in the middle.

nice PRs! Great work. What a good feeling it is to be able to lockout overhead after fighting so hard
