Triple under

I have been trying to get a Triple under with the jump rope. I am almost there, and I have the technique down. The trick is to slow down on the double unders, which is difficult in itself, and then blast out the triple. Anyhow, another minor goal.

Bench press

135x5
185x4
205x2
215x1
225x1(f)

I stopped at 225, was not really motivated to continue w/ the bench press.

METCON

50-35-20

Box jumps 20"
push ups
knees to elbows

Felt good moving the body and giving myself a rest from moving a load. I did not know what to expect with this one but the KTE's really affected the box jumps and vice versa.

what a gasser, this WOD really demanded a lot of power. I fell apart on the runs. Running used to be my active rest. Now I am trying so hard to keep it together while I am running that I cannot 'rest' at all.

Tuesday

Again I did some handstands and HSPU. That is really the only skill I worked on.

5 rounds of
7 135lb thrusters
7 burpees

I had absolutely no gas in the tank for this one. I really felt the squats from the day prior, and really no gas at all.
