HAT TRIP

A) "Barraza" 18min AMRAP:  200m run/9 deads @ 275/6 burpee bar muscle up.

Still rowing when the rest of the world is running.  I think under 400m there is a pretty even exertion exchange, 400m or greater you have to factor in mechanical advantage of rower and go farther. That's just me.  Would have far preferred running in this one.  And you should just know you're in for a tussle if you scale your workout and it still includes more than 4 #45 plates and garden variety muscle ups.  I cut the deads to 255 and the burpee bar MU's to kipping ring MU.  Kinda.  I can do a BarMU, sometimes.  Other times I cant.  (An example of not one is below)  I dont really know the secret that my arms and the bar are often in on.  I tried every round and every round I got exactly one BBMU.  "Every" is kinda a joke b/c I could have said BOTH.  2 rounds + 1 BBMU.  Most the time spent trying to go faster on the rings.  Deads were not the problem I thought they would be and I might have come in right around 2 rounds at 275, but it felt good to be proficient at them.  To be clear, that's 18min for 600m/27 deads/13 mu's of some description.  I dont even know how to evaluate that except to say I was happy to see it in the rear view.

B) Clean and Jerk  3-3-2-2-2-1-1-1-1-1

Holy crap.  I'll remind you that in the wod "gwen" the mainsite vid showed a woman do 15 ( and then 12 and 9) unbroken reps at 140.  I thought it astonishing back then.  Now I am plain stupid with awe.  I had a good long warm up and tried working up in triples.  Probably overdid that but whatever.   Missed 3rd jerk at 145. Missed more or less makable 3rd clean in second attempt at 145.  Cowered back to 135 to get a "heavy" triple on the books.  Doubles at 140, 145, 150  Singles (uh, these turned into boots to the teeth) 150 155 160x 160 160.  I never want to do that again.  I wouldn't normally showcase my righteous partners' misses, but they did this before me and gave me zero warning and laughed quite zealously as I got turned into sausage by it.  SO: (A miss at 275 I'd have a hard time feeling bad about.)

C) 12 min AMRAP: 4 shoulder press/8 SDHP/12 front squat @ #75.

no doubt in my mind that this wod was an early tester version of 13.2.  What completely surprised me was how hard I had to work to keep the barbell in the rack.  Flexibility and mobility really exposed here.  Cool b/c i was running out of things to work on.  much harder here to "just keep moving"--putting bar down, resetting stance and grip, excetra excetra.  I decided on unbroken sets, no matter what.  One time I was able to go from FS to SP.  Once.  After that, I so badly wanted out of the rack that I would have done anything to drop the barbell, including drop the barbell. 7 rounds, 2 presses

We'll be taking whatever you got
