    FridayI got some stomach bug so I ended up taking a sick day I just stayed in bed all day and pretty much watch TV for 15 hours.
    SaturdayPretty much a travel day, as well as an agenda run through, we did no actual work, just finalizing where we should be and when.
    SundayWe played the LA rain in Long Beach, there were a lot of ups and downs, but we were fortunate enough to come out with the win. 
    It came down to the final race and they threw their challenge flag so we had to redo the last four elements and Valerie Calhoun and Danny Nichols really stood out, they both came through in a big way for us. 
    Had we executed everything perfectly and maybe had some better strategies on certain races it wouldn't have been such a nailbiter.  Overall though I'm pleased with how we performed.
    Monday

    After the flight I got home and took a nap, I ended up sleeping for three hours. The plan was to go for a hike, a nice recovery hike so me and my roommate Brandon ended up hiking Camelback Mountain, it was definitely not a recovery hike! It was an amazing view at the top, but that was one of the hardest hikes of ever done! It took us about an hour and 20 minutes to get to the top and then another hour down.

Warming up thrusters were feeling pretty heavy I did 235 for my last double. When the race started though the bar felt WAY lighter, always a good feeling. We went pretty fast on Race 2. (Race 2 is 40 thrusters @235/145)

30 10" deficit hspu

Thursday

Today was a really light day all we did was some power cleans. We practice race seven (The clean ladder).

2x

Power clean 235, 250, 265; rest as needed


Friday

Justin general run through of the races, and going over game plan.

We also got a chance to see the Jobbing.com Arena for the first time, what an amazing venue. It is also the home of the Phoenix Coyotes (that's hockey for those of you who do not know)


Saturday-First game against the DC Brawlers.

Going into this match I had a lot of confidence, and I thought that these races favored our team. Unfortunately there was a hiccup in race two, that was a race we all expected to win, and after that our team felt deflated. We definitely had some high points in there as well, but I think we will move on to the next one having learned a lot of lessons in this first match. Onto the next one. #risestrong

30 Wall Ball Burpees
8 Snatch 185/125 (Athlete 2)
So 60 burpees and 60 wallballs and 20 snatches for me, I was partner 2. Did the snatches UB at the end and they were all power snatches. the 165# were easy as well did 6-3-3. My burpees were tough and wallballs were easy. Burpees were the hardest part of this and we paced those alot. Felt pretty good still after day 1.

Day 2:

WOD 4: 4 Rounds
Farmer carry 205/145 each hand, 80 ft.
16 Box jump-overs 30”/24”
Farmer carry 205/145 each hand, 80 ft
Crushed this. This really sucked though bad lung burn! I think I probably had the fastest split times of anyone there. So far the worst workout of the weekend.

WOD 5: 2 Rounds
25 Buddy Squats - Station 1
Buddy + Plates Carry
25 Buddy Squats - Station 2
25 Muscle-Ups * ª
Buddy + Plates Carry to Station 1
Event Rules Video

*Teammate must be locked out with deadlift 275/205
 if the
other is touching rings or bar.
ª Round 1 is ring muscle-ups. Round 2 is bar muscle-ups.

This was horrible! Buddy squats killed me and my muscleups were bad only did 7 my first set and then less than that afterwards. Bar MUs were bad as well, just felt out of breath the entire workout.

WOD 6: Chip 1 - 50 Points
100 Chest-to-Bar Pull-Ups
50 Thrusters 135/95

Chip 2 - 50 Points
100 Pistols, Alternating Legs
50 Deadlifts 315/195

Chip 3 - 50 Points
100 Burpees over Bar
25 Clean and Jerks 225/145
Partner Lunge 40 ft. 225/145
all done back to back to back. Pulllups and thrusters felt great breathing was on point. Pistols were good as well and breathing was solid, deadlifts were fast as well felt light, back was fine throughout. Burpees were shitty, I was super slow!!! Just couldn't move, and I couldn't catch my breath. Clean and jerks felt great but still gassed from the burpees bad just felt out of shape on this.

Engine is definitely not where is used to be but there is time still before the open, back never got lit up which was nice maybe because there was some built in rest in the workouts, felt super strong though which is nice! Good weekend!
