Saturday & Sunday April 20 & 21st

20-Apr
8AM
15 min amrap:
10 DB thruster 40#
Row 350m
10 burpee over rower

Not feeling up to anything this morning.  Moved through 4 Rnds + 6 thrusters.  All thrusters ub, but a good amount of rest & pacing.  I thought these were going to feel a lot heavier than they did. Row felt empty after thrusters.  Was averaging 2:20/500m or each row ~1:37-1:40 for 350m.  

PM 11:30am
For time:
20 muscle ups
(perform 3 hang power clean 135# each time you drop from the rings)
Feeling better by this point in the morning.  Had lots of tape on hands trying to hold them together.  Didn't string more than 2 MU on warm-up.  I was feeling like there was going to be a lot of HPCs, but then the clock started which I'm starting to learn I cannot base how I'll feel in the workout from how the warm-up feels.  
6 MUs
3 MUs (ripped tape off after this set) 
4 MUs
4 MUs
3 MUs
Time; 5:02.  (No video.  Battery died on phone. )
All HPCs ub.  Started each round close to top of next minute.  Could still use some better confidence with knocking out MUs while HR is elevated.  

Afternoon double date hike with friends ~75 minutes.  Had a sore throat again when I got home.  Perhaps my body had a reason for not wanting to dig in earlier this morning, as this is the second time this week I've felt a bit run down.  Went to bed at 8pm. 
21-Apr
Nine hours of sleep...my favorite amount!  :) 

1:00 PM
Squat clean x1/Front squat x2; beginning at 95# adding 5# per minute
until failure
Was feeling good with squats through ~145lbs and then it quickly got tough.  Last full set was 153lbs and missed the first FS after the squat clean at 158lbs...video review I feel like I gave up on the squat.  

rest 15 min

For time:
8 rounds for time:
10 CTB chin ups
10 GHD sit ups
20 double unders

Felt great here.  Steady Eddie.  Taped left hand, but didn't anchor it well and it was unraveled after the first 10 pull-ups so I ripped it off.  Corey encouraged me to focus on gripping the bar....recently realized that ripping becomes my problem before the feeling of grip fatigue so I'm focused on holding on slightly tighter to lessen the friction.  Worked well today.  All ub with no rips!! Feels good to have hands healthy enough to get the BF C2B back!

4 Rounds in 5:15
8 Rounds in 10:13

Late afternoon hike w/Corey & must ~60 minutes.
