this year: 149 pounds
^definitely happy with this. I have leaned out, lost some fat and put on muscle over the past year, more specifically the past 5 months or so. I feel so much better on gymnastics and body weight movements but have continued to maintain my strength. I think I have finally found a diet that works for me and I'm really happy with where I'm at right now.
Event 1: Clean and Overhead in 10 min
last year: 190
this year: 200
I started at 180, I probably should have started at 185 but I wanted to make sure I at least hit 200. I went 180, 190, 200 easily. I cleaned 205 and that was easy as well but failed the jerk. I think by this point I was too fatigued to get it over head but I'm happy that the clean was good since it's only 5 pounds under my current PR. I think I would have made the jerk if I had more time.

Event 2: Standing Triple Jump
last year: 18'6"
this year: 18'
I'll take it. I'm not a jumper alright!

Event 3: Row Repeats (500 m row, rest 90 sec, 500 m row)
last year: 1:47.6, 1:57.9
this year: 1:48, 1:49
I think this is the event I'm most pleased with overall. My first row was faster last year but I was able to maintain the pace for the second row this time instead of having a huge drop off. I'm more proud of my mental toughness on this more than anything else. During the last 200 meters of the second row I really wanted to slow down but I told myself just keep going. Really happy with this!!

Event 4:
For time:
21 power snatches (65)
9 burpees over the bar
15 clean and jerks
9 burpees over bar
9 thrusters
9 burpees over bar
5:07
Mehhhh. I was a little disappointed with my time on this. I was hoping to get under 5:00. I was very fatigued and sore during this entire workout and my breathing was pretty shitty as well. I broke up the snatches 8/7/6, clean and jerks were 5/5/5 and thrusters were unbroken. It was shocking how difficult the clean and jerks were, by this point I was breathing really hard, my grip was tired and my legs were on fire. I think I could have shaved off a few seconds if I didn't rest so long between sets of clean and jerks. My burpees were also slower than I would have liked. I was just extremely worn out during this workout. If a workout like this comes up in the open I need to be able to smash it.
