Today was a much better training session than yesterday. I probably had upside of 450+ grams of carbohydrates yesterday, made me feel a lot better. My shoulder are still smoked, but posterior chain felt great today. Today didn't leave me totally thrashed, which is good, there will be more in the tank for tomorrow. Part A was ridiculously difficult for me, but I knew that going into it. I was really happy with my PR on part B. In retrospect I wish I would have gone a little harder on it... left a little on the floor and I was really close to finishing within the 17:00 cutoff. My hip flexors are the most sore they have ever been in my life. I'm guessing this is from the lunges yesterday, need to work on those. Solid day, putting in the work, pumped for tomorrow!

205/145 lb Clean & Jerk + 11 Handstand Push-Ups
225/155 lb Clean & Jerk + 10 Handstand Push-Ups
245/165 lb Clean & Jerk + 9 Handstand Push-Ups
265/175 lb Clean & Jerk + 8 Handstand Push-Ups
285/185 lb Clean & Jerk + 7 Handstand Push-Ups
305/195 lb Clean & Jerk + 6 Handstand Push-Ups
