4:00pm

A
Hang Power Clean - 5 x 3 @ 80% of 1RM Power Clean - rest 3 min

Result: 252# on all

Well this was fun. Same tune, I don't feel very explosive at the oly movements. I just feel like I'm muscling it up. I don't know why I feel this way. Maybe I'm just a mentally challenged vagina.

B
10 minute AMRAP
30 power cleans @ 45% (true: 141# / used: 140#)
30 power cleans @ 60% (true: 189# / used: 190#)
30 power cleans @ 85% (true: 268# / used: 270#)

Result: 67 reps

Rep Scheme:

30 @ 140# - 10 / 10 / 10 - completed @ 1:47
30 @ 190#  start @ 2:33- 3 / 3 / 3 / 3 / 3 / 1 / 1 / 1 / 1 / 1 / 1 / 1 / 1 / 1 / 1 / 3 / 2 - completed @ 6:12
30 @ 270# start @ 7:14 - 1 / 1 / 1 / 1 / 1 / 1 / 1 - 7 reps completed @ 10:00

At first, I was very disappointed that I didn't meet the expectations laid out. However, looking at it, when I did the 8 minute AMRAP @ 275# in June, I only hit 10 reps. I hit 7 in less than 3 minutes @ 5# less. That makes me pretty excited about that. So, it's kind of a disappointed happiness, I guess. Am I happy that I hit 7 reps into today's WOD? Absolutely not. Am I happy that I hit 7 reps in 2:46 @ 270#? Meh, not overjoyed, but surprised. Due to this, I'm 100% confident that I could hit 20 - 25 reps in 8 minutes @ 275#, fresh.
