I paired up with Stuart, Jamie, Charlotte, and Hillary (Team Average Joes). We dominated at dodgeball! For the actual workout, we pulled a lot of high cards right off the bat, especially pull-ups. I think we got through 21 cards total.

I convinced my awesome wife to stick around and do the following with me:

25-20-15-10-5
Assault Bike Calories
GHD Situps

Wasn’t too bad. Likely will start at 35 or 40 next time and work down by 5’s.

50 Dumbbell snatch (50/35#)

Jeremey: 17:52 Rx
Charlotte: 20:18 (10 C2B, 40 Pull-ups)

This one was going really well until I got to the pistols. I started with 50 WBs unbroken. Then, I did 10 C2B to start then moved to sets of 5 with 3-5 seconds between sets. The pistols really got me. I didn’t warm up enough so I fell down on the first few before finding a groove. Need to work on those more!

On the plus side, I wore my new lifters for the first time (picked up a pair of Adidas AdiPower), and they were awesome. Pistols in lifters are far easier than in my Nanos.

Time cap: 20 minutes

My goal was to finish so I guess I have to be excited about my time. I really thought I had a shot to go mid 18’s though. I was certainly on pace through the round of 30. I finished the set of 10 in roughly 2 min. The set of 20 was at 5:00 or so. The set of 30 was about 9:00. The set of 40 is where I fell apart. My split time going into the last round was 13:32, and I knew I had to hurry if I was going to get this thing done. I did the set of 50 snatches in 10’s, 8’s, and 7’s. I should’ve just stuck with 10’s, but I was absolutely crushed by that point.

My overhead flexibility really hurt me here. For each set, I would do 9 snatches, take 10 seconds, do my last snatch, and then go straight into the OH lunges. On my right side, I was able to get through them all unbroken. My left flexibility overhead really let me down. I had to do 5+5.

I did 5’s on each side for the snatches. The set of 30 burpees really killed my time. I should’ve been much faster! Fun one today.
