5-5-5-5-5 deadlifts
Weights:
185#
205# (previous PR)
215#
225# (failed after 1 rep)
205#
This was frustrating: I really wanted to hit 225#. But maybe that wasn't realistic: 225# is now my 1RM.

AMRAP in 12 minutes of
5 115# front-squat
10 overhand grip pull-ups
20 double-unders
This is a scaled CrossFit.com workout. I scaled down the squats from 185# and sub'd overhand grip pull-ups (which are still a weakness for me) for chest-to-bar pull-ups.
3 rounds.
I need to get faster with double-unders.

I tried to work on my 1RM cleans last Saturday.
It didn't go particularly well: I made it up to 115# but couldn't push past that point. Mostly because of mental blocks I think, or maybe a lack of speed getting under the bar.

Today I did a modified version of "Jackie".
For time:
100 kettlebell high-pulls, 1.5 poods
50 thrusters, 45#
30 pull-ups
Time: 17:32
The workout was supposed to start with a 1km row, but I don't have a rowing machine at home. The normal substitution is 100 45# sumo deadlift high-pulls. The kettlebell work was a little harder (1.5 poods is about 55#) and it felt like it: it took me just under 7 minutes to get through them all, whereas rowing would have been about 4 minutes.

Today was the hero workout "Randy".
I scaled it down to,
60# power snatch, 50 reps
Time: 4:17
This was my first time attempting snatches and they felt pretty good. Will definitely be able to apply less scaling to this one next time.

It was a strength day today:
5 x 5 Strict Press
Weights: 75#, 80#, 90#, 90#, 90#
That was about my limit on the weight: I struggled with the last rep for both of the last two rounds.
This probably partly explains why I struggle with 95# thrusters. Lots of work to do...
