2026 Age Group Semifinals Workout 1
5 RFT:
7 Squat Snatches (135/95#)
3 Rope Climbs (15’)
-12:59 ... so today was a bit of a rough start to SF ... I was really happy with my first couple rounds, per the below splits:
1:17 (1:17)
3:15 (1:58)
5:57 (2:42)
9:17 (3:20)
12:59 (3:42)
Overall I guess I went out hot for my ability on the rope climbs ... I have been practicing these a bit since February when I bombed a RC workout at the Fittest of the Coast and I feel more confident with them than ever ... although when fatigued I struggle with sliding back down the rope as I reach my arms up... this takes what should be a two pull rope climb to 3-4 and just fatigues the hell out of my grip. This flaw is embarrassing and just something I need to work on more, it is not even a fitness issue, its just a lack of physical skill and confidence with establishing a strong bite/clamp with my feet. From what I can tell I think I am pulling too early and too much with my upper body and not actually using my feet to clamp/stand for each rep ... anyway, at least my snatches were smooth and consistent. Huge amounts of improvement to be made here, new goal of doing this under 10 minutes.
