11:03 - this felt soooo good too! I was able to push and not stop. Breaks on wb were :5 (let ball drop took a deep breath then picked it back up)
Wb- 20/10/10/10 - 15/10/10/5 - 15/10/5 -
20 - 10
Sit-ups were steady then when I got to 20 & 10 I sprinted them. Wall balls felt amazing today! Shoulders burned a little but not bad. Maybe it's my new dynamax wb :)

I feel like I finally had a break through today. I felt like I had been struggling on my metcons, but today I felt great, I had the drive to push hard and attack and my breathing felt better. Maybe it just took a few weeks? Or all the food I ate last night? Maybe a combo lol anyways I'm excited now to compete in a few weeks

5k run..this felt great actually. About 60 degrees out just me and the soccer fields that I ran around. It was hard to get out f bed but I was out the door within 10 min and just started running. I got tired late afternoon and had to have some caffeine to pick me up but I'm sure I will get used to it. It gave me more energy for the morning.

30 calories airdyne

23:30 - this felt great, I loved it and felt so good afterwards, I think it's because I got down after the AM session. I warmed up really really good for this one to help my back. It's been in the 60s & 70s this week so it's really cool and I don't think I warmed up enough for the AM. I'm used to sweating and getting warm 5 min into my warm up but not the case this weekend. I warmed up for a good 30min for the PM until I was warm and sweating.
Rep scheme/times-

Wall climbs - 6:30ish did 5 a minute for first 15 then fell off a little. I got into a rhythm the more I did them, when I got tired I learned how to throw my chest on top of the wall and fling my legs over.

Tire Flips - 4:30 had 15 done in 2 min then next 15 took about 2:30

Ring Dips - 3/3/3/3/3/3/3/2/2/2/2/1 - felt good actually 3:00ish

Thrusters - 3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3/3 - felling better at these 5:45ish

AD - 1:35 30cal

Feel like I held up well over the weekend except for the kbs..I loved tonight's session though..maybe because it was longer? I dunno ha

A. 135 - missed 140 2x and called it. Just didnt have it today I guess, I felt great warming up. 125 felt easy so I jumped to 135 then missed it then got it but it wasnt super pretty. Technique  has been getting off I feel like once the weight gets heavier. I got frustrated but moved on. Maybe its just mental. My legs were still so sore from Tuesdays session.

B. 155, 160, 165x(missed rep 2), 170, 175, 180 - just didn't have the pop on my lifts today apparently. 

C. 135x6(read it wrong)145x4 155x4 160x4 170x4 (felt strong on these surprisingly) Thought they would be rougher since my lifts felt heavy. 

D. :50 unbroken - grip got so tired! that was the hardest part on the last 5
