PCF

5 rounds of overhead barbell complex:

1 press
2 push press
3 push jerk

115-125-130-135(f)-135(f)

Enjoyed this strength session because it required significant time under the bar, which is transferable to competition events. There's less emphasis on numbers and more emphasis on just grinding out the sets. Failed each of the last two sets on the press portion, but continued on with the push press and push jerk. Press is obviously a weakness, but I'm committed to become a better presser of all varieties of the movement. Elbows are little hot from all of the pulling and time spent in the rack position.

Metcon: 3 round of:

20 box jumps (24 inch)
15 wall ball shots
10 ring rows

8.26. Did box jumps with Games standard of opening up the hips on top of the box. First time doing wall ball shots at PCF, and they're a little tough on the up-slope. Ring rows had to be broken up on the last two sets, and I even adjusted the feet to make them easier. I can't believe how fast some of the other folks were moving -- gives me something to target.
