CF Competition

Did a small in-house partner competition at our local in gym in Annapolis. It ended up being a well-ran and fun event. With how the vents played out, we took 3 overall in the competition. Fun start to the day, not too tough and had a good time. 

A.

Event 1 (0850)

12:00 to establish 3 RM Thruster

-185#, 205#, 225#, 245# ... all of these felt solid, definitely a little bit more there, but it was tough to gauge in the competition environment ... my previous PR on a 3 RM thruster is from April 2017 for 225# ... my 1 RM thruster is 267# from 2023, I think 245#-255# ish is right where my 3 RM is ... didn't know how anything over 225# would feel and just went off feel today. Fun stuff. My partner did 145# for his 3 RM and we ended up tying for 1st place in this event. 

B.

Event 2 (0940)

For time, split as needed between partners:

1000m Row

70 Burpee Box Jump Overs (24/20") 

-7:15 ... this was a fun event, took 1st place in this ... felt fit throughout. 

C.

Event 3 (1030)

On a 12:00 clock: 

Buy-in:

8 Wall-Walks

24 Toes-to-Bar

6 Wall-Walks

20 Toes-to-Bar

4 Wall-Walks

16 Toes-to-Bar 

then... 

AMRAP in remaining time, partners alternating full rounds:
9 DB Deadlifts (2x50/35#)

6 DB Hang Power Cleans (2x50/35#)

3 DB Shoulder-to-Overhead (2x50/35#) 

-9 Rds + 3 reps ... my partner struggled with the DB movements ... but we still had fun and I was trying to encourage him to keep the intensity up ... I moved through these fluidly and felt solid throughout. Took 3rd place overall.
