B. SJ singles 175 to 225.
Got carried away, missed 235, would have PR’d.
C. 3 rds + 21 Rx
S2O got me. Think I am over cautious about catching the bar in the front rack. End up doing a negative every rep and wearing myself out. Same with thrusters. Need to work on that.

Really work on absorbing the bar into your legs as it falls onto your chest! It takes a little getting used to the timing of it….barbell cycling is definitely a skill that takes some time and practice. Might be worth going a little lighter and practice pulling the bar down from the top of the lift.

Congrats to all Invictus athletes for amazing performances this past weekend! ??

Totally recommend owning your own rope! It makes such a difference. RPM Ropes are fantastic for super speedy double unders! They are easy to adjust when you first purchase them and can customize the rope to fit you perfectly!
