Today was not a good training session. I felt pretty crappy, but got all the work in that I planned out. I can't squat with my leg infection, so modified stuff a bit. I don't need to get better at squatting, so I wasn't too bummed about this. But I fucking hate missing / modifying workouts.

I was going to do Saturday's programming today ... but I have a very bad infection in a cut in my leg. Decided to give my body complete rest ... I'm in no shape to train right now.

Today was an okay day of training. I didn't feel great, but got all the work done. Was great to workout later in the day with my girlfriend and one of my training partners though.
A.
Take 15 minutes to build to today’s heavy…
Front Squat + Push Press + Jerk
-135#, 185#, 225#, 245#, 255# ... called it there ... 255# felt heavier than it should have ... triceps are wrecked from yesterday's second session.

Today was a really solid training session. I actually felt worse on dead-lift than I have the last two weeks, but PRed regardless.

I was really happy to be able to sleep 10 hours last night because today is a holiday. Got in the gym later at about 11 AM after a very relaxing morning. I felt surprisingly great in the gym today, yesterday didn't affect me much. Looking forward to ripping it up tomorrow!
A.
Every two minutes, for 12 minutes (6 sets):
Front Squat x 1 rep @ 85-90% (335# - 355#)
Strict Handstand Push-Ups to 1" Deficit x 4 reps
Make the deficit challenging, but I still want you completing the four reps each of the six sets.
-3 sets at 335#, 3 sets at 355# ... felt really solid on front squat. HSPU were challenging, 4 sets unbroken and then two sets of 3/1.
B.
Every minute, on the minute, for 12 minutes:

-:38, :38, :32 ... this was way tougher than I thought it was going to be. Last year my times were :58, :38, :30 ... so I guess it is good that I have improved my ability to move 185# .. even if it left me gassed as hell for the next few sets.
D.
Six sets for times of:
40 Double-Unders
20 Wall Ball Shots (30/20 lb)

Today was the first competition I've done since September. It was a male/female competition that I did with my girlfriend. I had a great time, I really liked 3 of the 4 workouts and really enjoyed the day. Also, the competition didn't really beat up my body much, so I was happy I was able to train hard the following day. My goal going into this competition was to make it to the finals (top 6 of 39 teams). We achieved this goal and I was really proud of us for our efforts today, with an overall finish of 4th place. Also, I handstand walked in a competition for the first time ever today ... not my favorite thing in the world, but was able to at least do it, even if very poorly. Anyway, the day went like this:
Event 1 (0900)
6 Rounds for Time (partners alternating movements):
10 HSPU
10 T2B
10 Box-Jumps overs (24/20")
-11th place in this event ... had a few no reps between both of us on these HSPU ... but overall was happy with both of our efforts. This was a really dumb workout, the separation from first place to 20th was on a matter of seconds which came down to no-reps and just strictness regarding HSPUs and feet touching the walls at the top of reps ... lots of differences in strictness of the judging here. But 11th wasn't too bad.
Event 2 (1100)
For time (can break up reps anyway):
50 Calorie Row
50 Thrusters (115/85#)
50 C2B Pull-ups
50 Snatches (115/85#)
15 Rope Climbs
-3rd place in this event. Was a very fun chipper, I felt fit on pretty much everything, was really happy with my effort and my partner's effort. The snatches were by far the toughest part, I was just gassed out hard. This was a great test of fitness and was just plain fun.
Event 3 (1330)
5 Minute Clock:
Max Power Clean + Hang Squat Clean + Jerk
-4th place in this event ... Opened up at 275#, then hit 295# fairly easily ... missed the hang clean on 305#. I wasn't able to secure a solid hook grip for the hang clean and it came out of my hands. This was a really frustrating / stupid mistake. I was happy with my effort though, 295# is a pretty solid number for the third event of the day. This is a PR for this complex. 295# was a tie (with one of my training partners) for the biggest male lift of the day.
Event 4 (1545)
For time:
45' Overhead Walking Lunge (45/25# plate) - both partners
35 Dead-lifts (315#)*
20 Muscle-ups
50 Wall-balls (20#)
40 Overhead Squats (135#)
30 Burpees onto plate
45' Handstand Walk - both partners
-This workout was the final event, only the top 6 teams went into this event. We were sitting in 4th of 39 teams going into the final. We took 4th in this event for a finish at 4th place. We were supposed to alternate the reps every 5 for everything, but my partner was injured and couldn't deadlift. So mid-workout I talked to the judges and we took a DNF for the event, but I did the 30 dead-lifts (my judge miscounted and I did 35 deadlifts at 315# myself in about 2 minutes). Other than the dead-lifts, we did everything prescribed in the standards of the workout and finished it in 4th place. Obviously if my partner wasn't injured we could have placed better, but it is what it is. Overall I had an awesome day with some of my favorite people; what crossfit is all about!
6 Rounds for Time (partners alternating movements):
10 HSPU
10 T2B
10 Box-Jumps overs (24/20")

AM Workout (0500)
Today was a solid training session. I was happy the HSPU went better than last week. Although I was totally gassed out for the jerks ... really embarrassing to miss reps at such a light weight. Other than that this morning was a great day in the gym. Really busy/crazy week with law school right now, glad I got this stuff in.
A.
Every 90 seconds, for 15 minutes (10 sets) of:
Front Squat x 2 reps @ 83% (325#)
Strict Handstand Push-Ups x 5 reps
-Complete, barely got all the reps. 7 sets of HSPU unbroken, then 3/2, 3/2, 2/1/1/1 for last set. Went to complete failure here, but happy at least that these are progressing.
B.
Every 3 minutes for 15 minutes (five sets of):
Halting Clean Deadlift + Hang Clean + Clean + Jerk @ 80-85% (245-260#)
-Used 255# for all reps ... missed 3 of the 5 jerks ... embarrassing but shoulders were completely fried from 50 strict HSPU in 15 minutes.
C.
Three sets for max reps of:
45 seconds of Ground to Overhead (185/135 lbs)
Rest 45 seconds
Work on creating speed and efficiency moving the barbell from ground to overhead.
-9,7,7 ... fun training.
D.
Every minute, on the minute, for 10 minutes:
Odd Minutes – 15 Wall Ball Shots (30/20 lb)
Even Minutes – 10 Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups
-Complete, all sets easily unbroken. C2B pull-ups felt the best they have in a while.
PM Workout (1730)
Felt okay this afternoon ... long day at school. Felt much better once I got moving though, really glad I was able to sneak this in.
4 Sets (6000m continuously):
Row 500m @ 80% (~1:59)
Row 250m @ 85% (~1:49)
Row 250m @ 90% (~1:39)
Row 500m very easy (~2:45)
-25:39 for the 6000m. Went entirely off feel, just got some breathing in, nothing maximal, but good training. This is a lot different than what I've been doing lately on the rower, was cool to switch it up.
Today was a solid training session. I was happy the HSPU went better than last week. Although I was totally gassed out for the jerks ... really embarrassing to miss reps at such a light weight. Other than that this morning was a great day in the gym. Really busy/crazy week with law school right now, glad I got this stuff in.
