WOD

21 squat cleans (but we did power cleans)
21 ring dips (but we did bar dips)
15 cleans
15 dips
9 cleans
9 dips

This WOD is is completed for time.

Jay: power cleans with 85lbs
Christian: power cleans with 115lbs

Results

Jay: 7:17
Christian: 9:14

Jay is very good at pushing movement (push-ups, dips), but needs to continue to work on form in the OLY lifts. Strong effort today.

I am horrible at dips, but getting better. It took me awhile to get through the cleans. They felt very heavy and my grip was weak. Form went crazy in the higher reps. Lots of work to do.

Tough week of CrossFit.

But we’re back.

WOD – wimpy, unfinished Elizabeth

21-15-9 of:

  • 135lb squat clean
  • ring dips

Training Summary

Blah. Started with 135 and just felt weak. continued with 95lb and that was easy. Dips were done on bars, not rings, and still struggled. I didn’t think 3 weeks off would hurt me so much – but it did.

Back at it.
