WOD:
21-18-15-12-9-6-3
Snatch, KB Swings, Toe To Rings
Results:
Finished 24:11, 95lb snatch, 50lb KB. I was definitely a beat slower than I should have been. That definitely happens when Snatches are in a workout. I knew this was a long WOD, and it included my nemesis the Snatch, so I started out slow to get through the first two rounds, where we would be done almost half the workout. I broke a TON on the Snatch. At first, it was to try and preserve grip strength (KB and TTR will surely fry your grip fast). By the end, I didn't have much left on the Snatch. For the KBs, I broke once on 21, once on 18, once on 15, then went unbroken the rest of the way. For the TTR, I never did them before, so I broke more than I should have the first 3 rounds, but I was unbroken on 12 the rest of the way as well once I got the hang of them.
My biggest problem was too much rest. Should have kept it to 4 or 5 breaths and that's it. Should have transitioned to each movement quicker as well. I am definitely disappointed in the amount of rest I took, especially in the early rounds as I was "saving it". I think with more push, I could have gotten in the 21s. On the positive side, I definitely felt better on my snatches. A fair amount of them were still "muscleing them up", but I had a lot more than usual that I would consider "good" snatches.
Also, this was my first ever 7am Crossfit WOD, so my body didn't really know what was going on, but I rather enjoyed it, had more energy than I thought I would.
