Split jerks felt good today, I was hoping to get to 195 but I failed it twice. 195 is my split jerk PR so I wasn't sure if I would get it or not but I think I might be able to do it in the competition. The second part was pretty frustrating. I was able to do the sandbag carry without putting it down which was good, but that's going to be rough during the competition. Pistol squats felt good. I think I should have broken up the snatches differently, I went 3/3/2/2 then singles. By that point I was breathing pretty hard. The rope climbs were terrible. My technique has gotten worse, I was using way too much arms and not enough leg, so by the 5th rope climb my arms were already really tired. I was resting too much between climbs so Stephen had to tell me when to go on each one, otherwise I would have just wasted too much time resting. I felt really bad after this workout because I imagined performing that way during the competition next weekend and it wouldn't be good enough, especially the rope climbs. I'm glad I got to run through a bit of it so I know what to work on before next weekend.
