Strapped up on the 175# and 185#. Did the 175# 3 + 2. I didn't drive under the bar enough and lost it forward. The 185# wasn't bad though. Felt a lot more solid on the first 3 than I did on the last 2 though.

Time: 12:34ish
Notes: I modified the reps for the Metcon from OPT. However I misread the rounds. I thought it was supposed to be 10 rounds of 15 each. Didn't think I could do that much yet so I scaled it back. Now that I saw it was only 3 rounds, I think I could have muddled through it as Rx'd. Oh well...still did work.

TT: 16:30
First round of HSPUs weren't bad. I cranked out 20 UB...but the second round was a different story. I got to the 2nd round of HSPUs around the 8:30-9min mark...it took me almost as long to do the last round of HSPUs as it did the other 7 movements combined.
300 double unders for time... clock starts immediately upon completion and scored as a second workout*
TT: 9:05 *
Notes:
Rushed the Jerk a bit. I started thinking about running out of time and my focus waned. I put on 275# but unracked it and then decided to cut my losses and start the doubles.
*This was not done as Rx'd. I ran out of time and ended up doing this after the meeting. I just tried to stay in a rhythm. Did it in sets of 15 pacing back and forth in the weightroom. No unitentional misses until rep 168...probably only 3-4 misses total.
