  1. Gobble gobble. I’m back minions.

    Coming to you live from Laconia, NH home of CrossFit Juggernaut!

    Split today’s session up into two because I had to leave the gym, so I got to do the ropes and metty in the afternoon.

    Warm up done

    A. Done, it’s great that 5 muscle ups at a time is pretty easy now, a year or two ago this would’ve been hard for me.
    HSPU done
    Part C done.

    I decided to start working off my 90% of my 1RM because I feel like my movements have been getting sloppy and it’s been taking a toll on me physically and mentally so I’m going back to the basics.

    Worked to a nice 145 on the OHS snatch balance ish.

    Snatches: 95,100,115
    125,135

    BACKSQUATs at 205 done in triples felt smooth.

    Rope climbs: 8. This is huge because I didn’t complete the 7, with like 5 minutes. Here I just paced myself and did one every 30 seconds. Now I know I can push a little harder and Probably get one or two more.

    Then the metcon: 8:31. Went All UB as directed and the wall balls felt good. Could’ve pushed a bit harder but I was slowed down on the farmers carries because I had one 70# KB and then balanced two 35# DB on top of each other for the other hand and it was a balancing act for sure haha.

    Great day y’all!

    Conditioning
    I did 4 attempts And tried to get four solid pulls each time. This went pretty poorly but gotta start somewhere I guess

    Then 13:15 on the metcon. I never dropped the ball, but the wall balls weren’t strung together as what I would consider “unbroken” tried not to rest more than 10 seconds with the ball in hand though.

    Good day overall!

  6. Gymnastics: A+B+C done. MU complex felt ok, HSPU portion felt decent. Been great having Jake’s feedback on these tripod movements. Rig makers (V-ups) were tough!!

    Barbell:
    135-195
    115-155
    175-185
    265 x 3 x 5

    Conditioning: 13:00.1 – beaten by a chest hair’s length by JMF. Probably due to him throwing his KBs at me. Kidding. Great grind — definitely one of the most challenging (physically and mentally) in recent memory.

    1. 7 legles RC — did 4 in 90 seconds and paid for it. Full disclosure — I wrap my feet right before I touch. While I love comp train, I just can’t justify falling to my death doing so. I felt compelled to admit this.

  7. Warm-up done

    Gymnastics
    A. Did MUs on low rings. Not the best day with these.
    B. Got this after a couple tries.
    C1 & C2 done

    Barbell
    A. Up to 105#
    B. 63/73/84# was ok, hamstring/groin is strained and making all squatting things challenging
    C. 90/98. Again, just ok.
    D. Skipped to have time for conditioning.

    Conditioning:
    Got 5 rope climbs in.
    Finished the wallballs/walk in just over 20 minutes. I didn’t put the ball down, but I definitely had to pause and 4 days later my shoulders are still on fire. I was also misled about the distance needed for the carry and only did 2 gym lengths.
