Crossfit Day 483 – hang cleans and front squats – 6/22/15

You say hang cleans, power cleans and front squats, and I’m there! Especially for a WOD. Those 3 movements are music to my ears!

Then you throw in the 1000m row buy in, and you just pretend to not hear that part. Because holy fuck, 1000m row before a bunch of weightlifting is ridiculous.

Luckily, I was able to come in the morning and WOD with Tom after the 10a class. We actually wodded together, which is something I haven’t done with Tom in a long time!! Very cool.

I did a 1RM 1 squat clean + 2 hang power cleans + 3 front squats at 125. The hardest was the grip on the hang cleans, whoa.

WOD:

1000m row buy in
then
3 rounds of
9 power cleans (95/65)
7 hang cleans
5 front squats

The 2nd part of the WOD should’ve taken me like, 3 minutes. The row took me almost 5 min bleh.

I finished in 9:10 and that was a total gasser! Holy hell.

Looking back at the other girls’ scores, I’m pretty happy with how I did. Only 1 girl beat my time, and she’s one of the top girls at the gym! I’ll take it. 🙂 Here I am, beating myself up for not getting a faster time, but I’m also comparing myself to the guys, who row faster and better than my short self.

Celebrating a great WOD by visiting Robeks afterwards for fresh smoothies!
