CrossFit Open 2017 Finished – RXed Every Work Out!
BOOM. Talk about feeling awesome lately! I feel awesome lately. I don’t want to ruin this! PLEASE STAY, AWESOME FEELING! I am happy, confident, I feel good, I’m sleeping well, the business and our people are good, Dave is good, dogs are good. Everything is just.. great.
It’s cool and crisp out (a little too cool and crisp tonight, dipping down into the high 20s/low 30s whaaat) but otherwise it’s pretty beautiful out. I wanted to make sure I went to the gym tonight, just in case tomorrow night was a bit too frigid for my Florida blood.
Anyway, Power Snatch 1RM today. I’ve been stuck at 125 for months. YEARS. My stats said 130, but I did that once and then hadn’t been able to do it again. I could only get 125 again.. and again and again.
But.. tonight, I did 135! WHAT. YES. I pulled, I focused on my hip action, or at least I thought I did, and I just.. got under the bar and did it! I didn’t even feel like I struggled. I feel like, my strength is there, so now I need to get my technique under wraps. My snatch form is not the greatest, by any means and tonight is proof that a little good form will go a long way.
I SNATCHED 135!!! Are you kidding me?!?! Let’s fucking crush this WOD!
WOD:
7 Rounds
1 min
10 hang power snatch (75/55 pshhhhh)
ME DU remaining time
1 min Rest
Score is total number of DUs.
Okay so my DUs are simply not the greatest, but that’s okay. I can do them, and I’ll do them one at a time if I need to, so whatevs.
I ended up scoring 53 total. I would nail out the snatches in 15-20 seconds each round. Those were light and easy peasy. It was the DUs that just took my breath away! But I did 53 of them and I was proud of every single one!
And you know what?? I RXED! 🙂 AND I PRED!!
