12min to find 1 rep max Snatch
WOD [10 rounds of]
10 rounds
Every 90 seconds
5 snatches (95/65)
100 meter sprint
12 minutes is not enough time to get a new PR. I got up to 85 lbs in my snatch, but according to my records my PR was 90 lbs in August.
Considering that nothing is sore or injured, it woulda been a good chance to get a new PR, but it didn't happen.
Did the WOD at RX cuz snatching 65 lbs is pie to me now.

It's 4 days until our in-house crossfit competition / 2nd year anniversary. Today and yesterday, my left knee feels a little stuck and it has me worried since the first WOD announced for the competition is a 1 rep max for back squats. I know I can hit 205 lbs easily, since it's my old max, but when I got to 215 lbs after the first cycle of Smolov, I was borderline injured and don't think I squatted that low.
I failed the last sets of Smolov today, but I'm about to get my monthly so everything in my body feels drained and tired and not wanting to cooperate.
This Metcon was a lot of fun! I never thought I would say this about snatches, but now that I can do them well it's not a huge deal. Rocker dude did his WOD at 75 lbs and thought I was doing the same weight (which I could had I not been PMSing), but I switched to the "girl" bar cuz I was not in the mood to suffer failed reps due to losing my grip, so I did the WOD at 65 lbs.
Socks Coach said "You're killing it today, Berpii!" which made me smile my shy smile. And Girl Coach always compliments my form it makes me so happppyyyyyy.
The score for this WOD was number of snatch complexes completed after the 100m run.
I got 9 in the remaining time, not bad!
I wonder what we'll do tomorrow? Either way taking Friday and Saturday off to not die during the competition.

Get a Grip
WOD
5 min AMRAP:
200m farmer's walk
10 power snatches (115 / 75lb)
max burpees
4 min rest
Complete 4 rounds
I tried a couple snatches at 75 lbs and it felt ok, so I decided to go with that for the wod. Unfortunately, there's only one pair of 35 lb kettle bells in the box, which shoulda been the weight for me to do, but then I decided to man it up two notches and did the first walk with 44 lbs.
Crazy mistake.
By the time I was done (dead last of the whole group) my grip was GONE. My forearms were super sore my, calluses were tearing a bit, and my fingers were cramped. I tried snatching the barbell and it was a huge NOPE. In the first round I only managed 4 snatches and failed about 4 attempts.
So then, I downsized to 25 lb PLATES (cuz there were no more kettle bells at this weight either) and while slightly more manageable, it turned out to be another ordeal in terms of grip. I also put the snatch down to 65 lb and to be able to pump out all 10 plus about 6 burpees in every round.
I also gloriously dropped the plate by my shin, so I gained some attractive bruises.
