At first I didn't know how heavy I would be able to push the single reps, how much the sets of 15 would effect them, but realized after 2 sets it wasn't a problem so pushed it for a pr on the final set. I think I should have started at 225 and then gone 245 to 265 and then make 10# jumps to 285. I think 265 to 285 was too big a jump at that point. The 100# thrusters sets felt easy and super light. Loved that every set that I went heavier with the 1 rep made the 100# feel that much lighter and faster. I'm going to be ready for these when they inevitably come up in the Open.
The EMOM was really smooth and easy. Was pretty happy with how easy thr wall balls felt and how they weren't that taxing even after just having done 75 thrusters at 100# a couple minutes prior. Again, I'll be ready for these. I can just tell how much my upper body strength and endurance has improved when I was hucking the ball up there, but also quad/leg endurance. Even though I was still sore from the Abmat sit-ups/workout Monday the t2b felt fine and never came close to breaking.
I went into this after coaching for 4 hours straight, eating as best I could quickly between classes, and with zero motivation. It was late, I was hungry, and I was feeling it in my legs from the AM a bit. With all that said, I think I did a pretty good job of mentally turning it on and hitting it hard anyway. Annoyed that I was 2 or 3 secs away from 6 full rounds, but I did 2 rounds less than I did on 11.1 and 95# and 10 extra doubles each round makes a big difference. Quads were burning from the end of set 1 throughout the whole 10 min from AM work, and that definitely forced me to break up snatches early and more often than I would have liked: Snatches - 15, 8/7, 5's the rest of the way; doubles UB except for a couple misses on set 2 or 3. I pushed hard early on and then just held on as best I could in the 2nd 5 minutes, but still paced from the beginning on my transitions. Overall I'm happy with it, but don't really have anything to compare it to. Definitely was a breather.
