Fitness-3/22-snatch, deads, "Team Annie", double-unders

Monday

Body was feeling good after the rest on Sunday. Started the day out with a lift, here are my bests:

snatch
3 x 165

deads
5 x 375

Snatches were pretty light, I took them all from the hang except for the set at 165. They were a good warm-up for the deads. The deads felt heavy but I felt strong. It was weird. The reps were slow, like I was lifting a house or something but I felt like I could've just kept going. Kind of bizarre. I stopped at 5 x 375 but felt like I might've been good for another 5. Just didn't want to wreck myself and 5 reps felt like enough. I'm trying to get better about making smarter decisions in regards to training, especially early in the week when it might really impact the rest. Went after a "Team Annie" next.

"Annie" is 50-40-30-20-10 of:

double-unders
sit-ups

team time: 7:56

We had 3 to a team and alternated 20 second intervals until all reps were completed. 2:1 rest to work and a nice way to get the lungs going a bit but keep it light. Simple as that. After the workout, Art and I went after a 2 minutes double-under test:

score=152

I may have lost count here because I swear Art seemed to be getting more in than me and he only finished with 149. I think I made the first 80 unbroken and then things went downhill fast. This score should be up at 200 or more as far as I'm concerned. It was amazing how gassed I was after only 2 minutes. It just proved how much work I've to do. A good day none the less.
