Three rounds,
9-7- and 5 reps, for time of
Muscle-up
135# squat snatch

as Rx'd: 9:43

Muscle-ups were the bane of this WOD for me. My goal was to not burn out on the first round. I tried to stop myself a couple of reps short of what I felt my max would have been during the first round...hoping that it would play dividends in the latter rounds.

Unfortunately, I got to the point during the MUs were I was so sweaty and slimy that I could not grip the rings. I was whiping the rings, my hands, chalking, but the rings just stayed slick and my hands were slimy. I wasted a lot of time on them...How I broke them up per round is noted below.

Rd. 1: 4-3-2
Rd. 2: 2-1-1-1-Miss-1-1
Rd. 3: 1-1-1-Miss-Miss-1-1

Snatches were done with what I call the "drop method" for lack of a better descriptor. I would snatch it up, drop it, reset and go. They weren't bad. I missed twice due to technical flaws. I didn't pull under the bar fast enough once and got off balance another time. Just a blah WOD for me today...definitely nothing to write home about.
