Alright, I'll probably finish it on monday morning.

This morning(there needs to be a sweat angel emojiticon thing idk what you call them)

Skillz work

I worked up slowly by 5 or 10lb increments from the bar

OH Skwaat: worked up slowly, i think  i went to 150, felt super easy.

Hang snatch: did 3 reps of  where you just do the first part of the pull without catching it, just trying to teach myself to hit with my hips and shrug then I'd do 2 reps of a snatch
       - Worked up to 120, grip was shot from yesterday and the previous reps, I will have to see what i can do to help with my grip with my hands out that wide.

Hang Clean:DId the same, worked up to 200, I definitely have to get my front rack position back to what it used to be.

13.1
Completed 2 Full rounds LMAO
Total reps: 130
       - I feel like I sandbagged it a little bit, I was definitely huffing n puffing but I coulda done the burpees faster I think and got half another round at least

13.2
5 OH press 95lbs
10 deadlifts
15 wallballs

Completed 5 rounds
total reps: 150 reps

Weight: 280.00

I kind of like doing 2 open wods a workout back to back instead of just one so maybe i will do it twice a week or something, so I will do 2 back to back on friday.

So tomorrows workout

Warm up run

Shoulders, tris

13.3
Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 12 minutes of:
150 Wall balls (20 lbs to 10' target)
90 Double-unders
30 Muscle-ups

I obviously cant do muscle ups yet lol so if I get to the muscle ups then ill just do jumping jax, and the pool area was locked again so jump rope might be out of the question since theres no place to do it in the gym so i will figure something else out, maybe idk ill figure it out haha

Flander, got any tips for snatch grip width?

I read online one thing you can do is hold your arms out parallel with the floor and measure elbow to elbow or hold the barbell standing straight up and adjust your grip until the barbell is at hip level.

I also think i need to throw more back work in, some heavy pendley rows n what not

I use three methods.

1) grip it and stand up. Bend over with the bar in the hip crease. If you bend your arms you hold to narrow.

2) hold it overhead. Distance from bar to top of head should be somewhere around 8".

3) using a broomstick or pvc pipe make a 90 degree angle between your arms.

These are guidelines of course, but working with groups its fast. My grip is fairly narrow because I lack some mobility in my wrists.

I combined the two wods into 1 n set the timer for 19 mins. 

13.3 i got 1 round +4 - 274
13.4 i got to round 18 but did 21 cleans on accident- 111

Total Reps: 385

For skwaats i did triples for
bar, 95, 135, 160, 185, 205, 225, 250, 275, 300, 315
then some paused reps at 225 and 135

OH Skwaats: I only used the bar, I started out with my hands at the collars and slowly worked my way in, the closest i got was maybe an inch outside of  my clean grip and i could definitely tell my back def needs a massage

also for 13.3 i did kb swings instead of idk i think it was muscle ups, and did air skwaats in 13.4


weight: 282, my arms and trapz are bigger and i feel like im a little bit leaner so the scale can eat a bowl of dicks

Didn't do anything yesterday, got super lazy and furious 7 came out on amazon video so yeah lol oh well

This morning

OH squat warm up with bar, just going from my grip next to the collars and working my way in.

OH squat: did 2-3 reps each
bar, 65, 85, 100, 120, idk i worked my way up slow to 170 for a 2015 PR

Snatch: worked up small increments from bar to 135 2015 PR

Clean: Small increments, went from 95-205  2015 PR

Lat pulldowns, focusing on thoracic extension and doing pause on the bottom near the chest for 5 reps for 4 sets

13.5 I think it was

fuck this one sucked

4 minute intervals
3 rounds
10 back thrusterx barbell
10 kb swingsx30
finished the 3 rounds before the 4 minutes then rest until the 4 minutes are up and continue on for another 4 minutes until you cant finish

I did 6 rounds i believe, total of 24 minutes and I could've kept going for another round or two but I had to decide between a few more rounds or shitting my pants so I figured I'd cut it short.

afterwards felt tired but fine and then boom felt sick
