Christina, it will be good to have you back. We have missed you.

Welcome back.

Not the greatest looking form in that picture there, huh? ha.
This is absolutely one of my favorite workouts and I hope I can make it tonight!

Andy, I don’t think your form looks bad at all. Sure, you could be bringing your shoulders back and holding a tighter lumbar curve. But you’re not doing the halloween cat rounded back. You were on the last round of a ~30 min WOD. You were extremely fatigued (like all of us). You’re using hip extension to get velocity on the bar, which is good. You were planting your feet quickly and aggressively, which is good. I think it’s a great capture of the 90% solution.
I was disappointed with this load, as it is a good bit less than my 1RM on shoulder press, but it became very difficult towards the end. I underestimated the difficulty of this WOD. I should have warmed up more and put up 151 for my first two reps as well. Live and learn. Missed being at CFI tonight. See everyone tomorrow.

It was tough seeing my numbers so low compared to 5 months ago, but encouraging to totally waste my shoulders. I’ll be sore tomorrow. All my fails were on the last rep!
4 rounds for time:
800m run
10 Hang Power Cleans (135-lbs)
I scaled the HPC’s to 115-lbs
Time: 19:07

Anybody make it on the whiteboard tonight for overhead?

Sorry I missed last night. We had to work late to try and find someone to join the Navy. Didn’t happen and I missed my WOD. Tonight I will be there with my brother trying J.T. Hope everyone has a good holiday and I will see most of you this weekend I hope.

Started at 75lb and scaled down from there somewhere around 10-15 pounds less each failure so the weight wasn’t necessarily consistent this time around. Next starting point on this one should probably be close to 75 if not slightly under.

Mike I am glad you scaled down — your form improved tremendously when we lowered the weight… Form is the key to ultimate performance.Great job to everyone on this WOD!

Is looking forward to seeing everyone again!
