Did the warm up and section A and B from Friday then 16.3. I found RDL and death March lead well into 16.3

16.3: 91 reps

Increase of 26 reps from 2 years ago. I aimed to get a round per minute which was a better plan than 2 years ago when I just went out too fast and crashed and burned. Happy with score.

Today’s session has good news and bad news. The bad news is today I completed 4 rounds plus 10, compared to 5 rounds plus 10 in 2016. The good news is I’ve been feeling really good about my BMU lately so before the workout I tried linking them for the first time. I did two doubles and one triple in the warm up, along with a few more singles. Normally I would never warm up with this many as I only have so many to give! But I thought it was worth it to see if I could link them.… Read more »

Pull-ups. 6+5.
I know I didn’t have pull-ups that year, not even close. Felt like I wasted my shoulders just muscle snatching it. Didn’t use my legs. Pull-ups were fast though, happy with that!
Box squats and accessory work

Well, I still don’t have BMUs and I am honestly feeling slightly depressed that I don’t. I’m literally working on it several times/week, but I just can’t figure out how to get myself over the bar. It always turns into a C2B as I’m pulling early. Just practiced again last night, and my hands were super tender today, so didn’t want to do the WOD with the C2B either. I generally felt super low energy and unmotivated today. Ended up doing a scaled/modified version of the 21-min EMOM I missed earlier this week: Min 1: 10 abmat sit-ups + 20… Read more »

Be safe, snow is coming down here too! Good work doing that Emom when you didn’t feel like it! It was brutal

They’ll come, Silke! You have the strength and something will click with the technique.

Yes, pulling in too early causes my misses as well. I constantly remind myself to pull with straight arms as much as possible.

16.3 missed it in 2016 because of a disc herniation in my neck. This morning 8 rds plus 1 snatch. Short on time today. 5 min warm up, wod and cool down in 20 minutes. Wasn’t planning on doing it and then just decided to hit it. That was a grip killer. Definitely more in the tank here. Wasn’t in the right mindset to go in the pain cave on such short notice. Took yesterday off and spent the day and evening skiing with my 5 yr old. It was her first time on skis and she loved it! Looking… Read more »
