Post highest weight lifted and met-con time to comments/logwod.
The gym, a little more than a year ago.
164 for OHS (PR) and 10:35 for the metcon.
met-con= 9:25
No PR on OHS 2day, need to get stronger with my lockout so i can get more weight overhead, 4 some reason quads were tired 2day and it took 4ever to get final weight locked out....Metcon was way tuffer then i thought, props to Ang on that time....
Question-if i can snatch balance a heavier weight can i count that as an OHS attempt also?
Metcon = DNF. That was TOUGH!
What did we have, 3 people finish as Rx'd? I wasn't even close. Using the erector spinae and multifidus muscles (low back muscles) too much caused lower back cramping during the workout. I think that is from bending too much and not keeping the chest up and popping the hips. Probably a combo of poor technique and lack of strength. Either way, it was brutal for me.
You are a STUD if you finish this one! (GregMo, Paul, Ang)
I got a new PR today on OHS at 139#! I was pretty excited about it. Hardest part is getting it up. I ended up doing a version of a jerk for the last sets; only way I could do it. Thanks for your help today Lindsey.
8:30 for the met-con. It was tough. I had no grip by the last round of swings.

Metcon=DNF, I had 43 air squats to go when time was called. This metcon was rough today. Good luck later groups.
Great job 6am peeps! :u)
Metcon 10:48 rx'd, that was a tough one. Great job morning crew!
Metcon = 11:22, I think. I <3 shrug-swings. But not lactic acid.
(When you watch a pool of lap swimmers and water "fitness" classes for 6 1/2 hours every morning, you think about a lot of things. Mostly about all the things you'd rather be doing. Like pullups. Or sleeping. Mostly sleeping.)
Great work noon and to those who finished the metcon today - tip of the hat to you! :)
DNF on metcon, Got 32 swings in the last round when time was called. Thanks to Greg and Cari for finishing the WOD after time was called!!

Metcon- a big DNF!! I was into 32 KB swings in 3 rd with time was called!! That was definitely a tough one. Great job on all of you who finished!!!
DNF on metcon. Finished 2 rounds + 36 swings. Back became so tight. I would like to give it another try. I actually liked this one.
