SATURDAY 9/6 - COMP

Workout 1:
50lb. Medicine Ball Toss
*threw it 15 feet

Workout 2:
8 minute Tabata
225lb. Deadlifts & C2B Pull ups
*Averaged 10 deadlifts each time and tore my hands real bad on the pull ups slowing me down considerably. Averaged only 8 pull ups each time on the bar.

Workout 3:
4 minutes to get a max C&J then 2 minutes to AMRAP burpees over bar.
*255lb. Power clean and push jerk. Lots of guys got way higher than me but actually surprised I got so close to my PR of 270lb. in just 4 minutes. Then got 36 burpees. Went way too fast out of the gate and hit the wall at the first minute and the last minute was significantly slower.

Workout 4:
21-15-9 (95lb. Thrusters x Toes to Bar) then max L-Sit then the L-Sit time is subtracted off your total workout time.

*didn't find out my time here but actually blazed through the Thrusters. All unbroken. All great form. All from the rack. With great breathing technique. Our work on this movement definitely paid off. This was my best workout of the day. T2B were fast and fluid. Broke them up each round. And kept a consistent pace throughout. Got about a 20 second L-Sit. Was pretty tough after all the days workouts and then 45 thrusters.
