HQ WOD

Solid day in the box. Programming this week is straight from the HQ website. Primarily cleand and snatches the past few days. No surprise for tonight. we spent a ton of time tonight going through the entire bergman (sp?) snatch warmup with a PVC pipe and a bar.

HQ WOD
1000m run
100 pushups
10 snatches (135#)

Still cold and nasty outside and tons of black ice so a handful of us opted to row (me included). Got my bar ready and did a few reps of 135. Felt real solid but I was concerned I would have to drop weight after all of those pushups. I had 25# plates ready just in case.

Total time was 17:58. Pushups were a train wreck. Did all of them from my knees and I just kept going with sets of 3,2,4,6,1. You name it and I did a set of that many. Got to the snatches and got my feet set then went after it. I was really tired by this point but my form actually kicked in and I banged out all 10 at 135#. I owe it to the warmup that I could go through this. Overall I am real pleased with the progress.

Spent time before hand working with my new Rx jump rope. DUs are not as easy with this rope as they are with my other but I really like the feel of this rope so I am going to stick with it. I will get a faster rope in a few more months.
