10092018 – CrossFit

I think I did too much today.  It was another hard day and I hit the bouldering gym to get some of my lifts in.  My deadlifts are going great.  I did the 5×2 at 86% and felt like there was some more there maybe.  The weight was 210.

Then I decided to do some Shoulder Press.  I haven’t done any this cycle and it is part of the competition. So I went back a few weeks to some of the lighter percentages.  I was supposed to do 3×10 at 60% and move up from there.  That didn’t happen.  I was able to do 3×5 at 60% which was 65.  I added weight to 75# and couldn’t get the bar off my shoulder without a dip and drive.  Oops.

Then, why not go ahead and do the COW for this week.  1000m row max effort.  I completed that in 3:41.  I did the first half in about 1:45 pace and then struggled to keep it under 1:55 for the second.
