Eeeeeesh. Today wasn't great. Everything felt tough today. I was hoping to do the rope climb workout in around 10:00, I finished with the climbs around 7:30 but the handstand walk took me way longer than I thought it would. I'm still struggling with doing HS walk when my arms are tired. My forearms were blown up from the rope climbs so it was tough to walk on my hands. I would only make it about 7 meters at a time and then have to stop because my arms felt like they weighed a ton. The second piece wasn't great either. Thrusters were relatively easy, unbroken the first round then 6/4 on rounds 2 and 3 although I'm not sure why I broke them up, I should have done them unbroken. The cleans shocked me. Going into the workout I thought I would be able to do them in sets of 5, but I was way off. I did the first 2 and then they were all singles after that. I think I actually said out loud "what the fuck?". I know I was fatigued from the first piece but I still thought I would have been able to touch and go some of them. Overall throughout both pieces the main problem was muscle fatigue. I was never really breathing that hard, except for at the very end of the second piece. My arms were sore from the rope climbs and my legs were also sore for some reason. I just feel like I didn't do very well today.
