Training January 3, 2015

A re-test of one my least favorite Open workouts.  When it was originally released, my initial reaction was that I was going to crush it, and it ended up crushing me.  Attempted it three different times during the Open, and I really questioned my sanity.

AMRAP 10
30 Double Unders
15 Power Snatches 75 lbs.
6 Rounds + 30 Double Unders + 14 Snatches (Argh!)
314 (10 Rep PR)

My strategy was to pace the snatches by breaking them up 8-7 each round, go unbroken on the double unders and to complete a round every 1:15 so I would have a shot at 8 rounds.  I was able to keep the strategy until the fifth round, and then, my grip got very fatigued and I started breaking the snatches up into fives.  Doubles were unbroken.  This is a workout that I know I should do better on, but for some reason, it is completely in my head!

I had some time left after the workout so I did a little skill/accessory work.

EMOM 15
M1: 8 OH Walking Lunges 115 lbs. 
M2: 3 Ring Muscle Ups
M3: 12 GHDSU

This was a lot of fun AND a complete midline destroyer.
