April 20 & 21, 2012. Chicago prep work!

Sleep has been less than ideal.  Staying with a friend which is great, but most 29/30 yr old individuals do not go to bed before 9p.  :)  Something around 10-5/6a each night.  
Food is good though for being on the road.  There is a Whole Foods just around the corner!  :) 

Friday 20-Apr
A. Hang squat clean 2 reps x10; rest 1 min (55% 1rm, fast and tight)
B. 10 min DB snatch practice worked up to 55lbs.  Heaviest DB Windy City had.  
C. Amrap sets of 2 unbroken muscle ups in 10 min (failed attempts are
mandatory 60 second rest penalty)  Lost my paper on what I completed here.  Something like 5 sets of 2 before failing on the 2nd rep.  Then about 4 sets of two and again failed 2nd rep.  Switched from regular grip to false grip and ended up ripping my wrists with about 3 minutes left.  Had two misses at that point.  Completed something like 22/24 total reps.  

21-Apr
prep work
Snatch practice: built quickly to a single. 35kg, 40, 45, 49, 51, then three misses at 53kg.  
One set of hang cleans at 60kg
light run + some touches on lifting 3x30s row @ 1k pace with 30s rest.  5x30s run @ 3k pace, rest 20s.  Felt smooth.  

maybe practice a few of the wod movements for regionals...
