Push Press: Can’t really do these still with my bum shoulder, but had zero pain this time around with super light dumbells.

WOD 16:35 #35 – Liked the renegade rows, hope to see them again.

PP: 175# or 79.5kg. Got 180# x2.
WOD: 13:28 w/32kg KB and 30# DB’s (18% BW)
My 2nd time with Renegade Rows in a WOD. The first time, on 9/15/11, my comment on my performance was “Garbage,” so I knew I didn’t like these. I had better luck this time, but we’re still not friends.

I then worked on squat cleans. I felt really good, so I went heavy and established a new PR of 205# or 93.2kg, up from 198# or 90kg. My September goal is a 95kg Clean. 1.8kg’s to go.

Push Press: 52kg… missed the third one of 55kg. So annoying

WOD: 12:53 with 30kg dumbbells and 24kg kettlebell (should have been heavier on the sumos). Tried the double-unders for the first two rounds but ended up in singles for the last two.

Tried out CrossFit Raynham today for an out of box WOD cuz I now live in Taunton (at least for now) and I don’t know how much longer I can come up to CFF. I’m surprisingly much more bummed about that than quitting my job or leaving Boston. I’m gonna be out of town for a bit and then I’ll come up for at least another week after that, but I don’t have high hopes for the practicality of the commute. Good to know that there are good boxes down here! I won’t wander off without saying bye (or writing long diatribes – I’m sure). See you guys soon! Miss y’all!

CF Raynham’s box is much smaller than ours, but the community is great! Not like I expected otherwise ^_^ It’s also in a gigantic gym complex with a ton of stuff in it, so huge locker rooms. Yup :-D

Anyhow, on to the goods:

1 RM 1 arm DB Snatch – 45# (pounds – yargh so confusing!)

WOD:
24-18-12
1 arm DB Snatches (55#) @ 35#
Box Jumps (20″)

Nice easy one. Good to do some DB snatches for a change!
