WOD – 5+5 Rx that 2k row yesterday primed me for pulling hard again.

This has been an uncommonly good week for me at the gym. Thanks coaches! I may be actually gaining some confidence for the garage games!

Nice job 6:30!

For example, a couple weeks ago we did OH squat 5×2. I failed at 82kgx0. I then added 2 more kilos and got 84×2. Today I failed at 80×0, but then did 81×1.
I only do this if I’m confident in the weight, though. That 80 didn’t feel that heavy to me, I was just having trouble keeping it locked out when I began my squat. I think maybe a little tightness is to blame.
Also, I know I make gains when I get used to a weight. Once, I get an understanding of what 80kg feels like overhead, then it will become easier for me to replicate that lift on a normal basis. Muscle memory and mental confidence, I guess.

A 10kg jump on OHS? Big jump in weight. Why would you try 81kg if you failed at 80kg. Not criticizing, just curious.

WOD: 4+1 Rx – That was a fun one. Rows were tough after yesterday’s 2k row.
