09-05-11 Monday Week 136

Chipper swing at Summer Crush Games.

After 5+ workouts in 4 days, decided to take yesterday as a rest day. By the time I met my crew for our workout today, still hadn't decided what workout to do other than I knew I needed to snatch heavy. Haven't done that in a while.
The 10:30AM class was wrapping up their Labor Day hero wod when I arrived and they made it sound like so much fun, decided to give it a shot.

I stopped at 130 on the snatch and didn't attempt anything heavier. I will feel good about being able to consistently put up my bodyweight without missing... that day is near, I think.
For the Lumberjack, looking at that workout, I didn't see any reason I shouldn't be able to finish that in under 24 minutes. Alas, finished the 5th run and hit a wall. The pace of my runs dropped off and those last 20 squat cleans were grueling. Every set up to the pullups was unbroken -- the pullups were 10/5/5 ... just to catch my breath, really. It was downhill after that.The soreness set in before I even left the gym. YIKES! What will tomorrow bring??
