Class WOD

A
In 8 min, find heaviest complex
- [deadlift + squat clean + hang squat clean + jerk]

Result - 225 / 275 / 315

Stopped at 315# because it felt like the 7/10 we have been using. Really surprised myself that I can still clean 315#, let alone hang clean it too. There must be some kind of magic in this recovery and breathing work ;)

B
Open 17.3

Result - 64 reps (4 reps into 6th round)

1st 3 rounds - C2B: UB / UB / UB
                        Snatch: UB / 1's / 1's

2ns 3 rounds - C2B: 4+3 / 4+3 / DNF
                         Snatch: 1's / 1's / DNF

I decided that, if I continued to do the snatch UB, I would be toast and that would go against what we have been trying to accomplish. Therefore, I made the decision to make the snatches singles after the first round, mostly due to having relatively poor local muscular endurance in my legs for squatting in general. If I were to re-test "Karen" anytime soon, it would take significantly longer than the last time. I'd be surprised if  I could get 40 UB WB at the moment, but that doesn't really matter right now, it's not the priority. 

Kyle-
Sorry for not doing what you had written. I have to do the class work at least once/week and this was the only day I could do this week. Also, I have been trying to get Rachel to go with me to the gym so she can start working out again before she has to do a PT test in May.
