I like a good snatch

Taken from Catalyst Athletics (www.cathletics.com). I was pretty sore from my previous workouts (STILL), so this felt like a pretty easy-going workout that wouldn't break me down and should still give me a little bit of excersize!

Snatch - 75% x 1, 78% x 1, 80% x 1, 75% x 1 x 2
Clean & jerk - 75% x 1, 78% x 1, 80% x 1, 75% x 1 x 2
Front squat - med/heavy single
Kipping pull-ups - 3 x 65% of max consec reps/set

Results:
Started with CFWU (crossfit warmup).
Snatch: 50, 52.5, 55, 57.5, 50x1x2. (I did 50x2 :( )
Clean & Jerk: 75kgx1, 77.5kgx1, 80kg x 1, 75 kg x 2
Front Squat: Worked up to 100 kg. Felt fine. I can probably go up to 110-120 somewhere.
Kipping pull-ups: 14/14/12(fail)/14.

That's it!

The Metcon death.

For time:
75 Swings (24kg), 50 Thrusters (20kg), 30 Pullups
Rest 2 minuter
50 Swings, 25 Thrusters, 20 Pullups
Rest 2 minuter
25 Swings, 15 Thrusters, 10 Pullups

I thought I had a decent grip.

I don't.

21 minutes and 50 seconds. I could have done better, sure... but this was painful enough.

So today I met Fran.

15 x 40 kg Thrusters
15 x Pullup
9 x 40 kg Thrusters
9 x Pullup

Results:

I shouldn't whine. The numbers speak for themselves. 56 seconds improvement from last time.
