Feelin' the flow

It amazes me how some nights you just feel great, and a training session goes well, and you feel unstoppable.  I guess that's the feeling that keeps me coming back...

Last nights strength was:
Clean-work up to a heavy single
Then 4x2 @ 80%-add weight if its fast and technical
(Worked up to 155, failed at 165, and now realize I should have not made that 10lb jump.. It was my first time using the hook grip for cleans, it felt a little awkward but I think it will take some time to get use to it.)
First set of doubles @ 125lbs
Second Set of doubles @ 135lbs
Third set of doubles @ 135lbs
Fourth set of doubles @145lbs

Then Snatch grip push press, 3x3 @ 105
Felt fast and light.

This WOD was challenging ...
5 Rounds
2 Power Snatches @ 75lbs
5 Pull ups
400m Run
rest 1 minute between rounds
Rest Five minutes
Repeat

First 5 rounds: 2:13; 2:11; 2:18; 2:16; 2:19
Second: 2:16; 2:13; 2:21; 2:30; 2:28


Anything body weight is always a weakness for me.. at 5'9" I am far from a gymnast body type.  Lately, when I have something that's body weight in a WOD I try to focus and set a small goal for myself.  Last night I decided I wanted to do every round of pull ups unbroken, and I did :)
