Squat Clean 5 x 3
Top Load: 195-lbs. /
Sometimes life (most of the time: "work") deals you a raw hand and all you can do is bend over and take it. That's how the past week and a half have been. Too much work, not enough gym time, and minor flubs can throw one into a flux. Needless to say I'm trying to get back on track but I'm finding it hard to drum up some motivation.
Changes are coming my way here in the next few months - good changes, but changes none the less.
Moving forward - been M.I.A. at the box for far too long. Were Squat Cleans a good way to re-integrate with the rest of CrossFit-ting humanity? MMMMmmmm.... I'm gonna go with a resounding "nope." I don't know if it was case of deconditioning or what but I felt pretty fatigued after my 3rd set of 165-lbs. And after my final (successful) set of 195-lbs. for 3 I was gassed like a mug! I still forged ahead and attempted to shoot for 207-lbs. for 3 but the results were less than nominal. I got one rep but kinda cranked on my left wrist weirdly when I failed to securely get the bar to my shoulders. Afterwards I did a dropset of 165-lbs. x 3 followed by a set of 5 at 135-lbs. to finish things for the day.
Overall it felt good to be back - we'll see how things go from here.
