You Challenge WOD....NASTY!

Above is the You Challenge WOD.  As you can see it was less then enjoyable....but as always I am thankful to be able to do this!  I love CrossFit!

I coached the class and then jumped into training.....though I am still completely trashed in my upper back from all the weighted pull ups.  So.....why not do some strength with my upper back!  Lets do it:

1 Rep Snatch

215 x 1

225 x 1 (FAILED)

I had this easy but could not lock it out and stand.  I was very fatigued even though I only went on a 20 minute run with Jada yesterday (it could have been the donuts...not sure)

1 Rep Squat Clean

265 x 1

285 x 1

Again, easy getting up but I did not want to stand.  I think I was pulling to hard and riding it down, bottoming out and then trying to stand.  I need to stay active in the bottom.  Then came the You Challenge Wod I have been holding back from:

You Challenge

8 Squat Clean Thrusters 155#

10 Box Jumps 30'

12 Hand Release Push Ups

14 Pull ups

My score

6 Rds + 4 Box Jumps

This was brutal.  I was really dreading those Squat Clean Thrusters...and the box jumps were rough coming in after the thrusters.  I REALLY liked it though and will be saving this for future WODs.  Next was a WOD I was told to do by Mike Dieme:

I was not happy with my time...

A)  I had to use someone elses jump rope which SUCKED! 

B) the first 50 DU's took FOREVER because of the rope...

C) I hated the rope....

D) I do not like light thrusters...they hurt....

E) I do not like to Row. 

Enough said!  Next I played around with my weighted vest and then did:

10 Rope Climbs for time 15 ft

My time

2:37 (PR)

PR by :13.....I was happy with this but still know I can go much faster.  I am planning another WOD and my 50 burpees still today.  We will see what it will be.....and this weekend is the Life as RX competition in Chicago which will be a blast.  First competition for my wife!
