Ring Rows, Pushups and Back Squats

 Ring rows and pushups were a scale for ring muscle ups, I like the fact that my pushups are getting stronger and I can do more.  Back squats we had to be able to do unbroken, I chose 65lbs, probably should have pushed a little heavier.

Went to Fritz after, lost 1, won 1, called it good.

But Did I Touch

 I kinda sorta got a toes to bar today, I'm just not absolutely positive my toes hit that bar, if not it was close, very, very close.  Lots of box jumps, stressing out on the 20", came home and did three consecutive jumps on the 20" then stressed out again.  I used 18" for the WOD.

24 Dubs--they're coming along

12 Toes 2 Bar

12 Box Jumps

Every 2 minutes you stop dubs and t2b and do 12 box jumps.

I got 4 rounds.

Golf and Crossfit

 Golf last night was really fun, I think it'll be like pickleball, a lifetime to never master it, but it is fun trying (most of the time).

CrossFit was:

5x3:00 rounds for reps

15/20 Calorie Row (I did 10)

20 Alternating hand dB snatches

Max dB facing burpees

Count the burpees=55

I Can Stilll Do It

 Last night was my pickleball lesson, I worked on things that frustrated me in the tournament on Sunday.  Kolbe encouraged me to play more at Fritz. I played this morning and was very happy with the points I got and had a good time.

BUT... that means if I'm going to get my three Crossfit check ins before the end of the month I have to go Wed, Thurs, and Friday.  Still time...

Golf tonight.

Week Off

 I took a week off from CrossFit last week, not with intention, just kinda happened.  It's always hard to get the motivation to go when you've taken a little time off, so much easier to stay home or go to pickleball.  I went.....which will make tomorrow easier to do.  I also got a message that I only need three more check ins to make Foundry Fanatics for the month of July, I didn't think I was that close.  Funny how something basically meaningless is so motivating, may be I should look at Foundry Fanatics as meaningful, obviously it is because I will go three more times before the end of the week!

Today's workout was a complex of Power Snatch + Hang Power Snatch, my numbers were: 35, 40, 45, 45, 45 I attempted 50 and it didn't happen.

Followed by Legless Rope climb, Power snatches

2 Legless rope climbs

4 Power Snatches

add 1 power snatch every round

I thought I would scale the legless rope climb with regular rope climbs, but todays scale was ring rows which I didn't mind.

I got 7 rounds + 10

Tournament

 I haven't played a tournament in awhile, I played up and really struggled, even with the simplest of shots.  Some days are like that, but then someone dropped out of fixed doubles so they asked me and Craig to stay and play.  That was an extremely reluctant yes but I'm glad we did, I redeemed myself, we only lost one of our matches.  I'm not sure how we placed, when we were done, we were done, it had been a long day so we didn't stay for results and I haven't seen them posted yet.  Feeling good about the end.

PR

 PR'd my deadlift today at 157, I tried to do 159.5 and failed.  Backsquats today also, just not feeling like pushing them.
