Happy Easter!

HAPPY EASTER! 

Make sure to go to Church, then eat lots of chocolate bunnies while you think about how awesome it is  that Jesus died for our sins!

REPS: 99 (!)

NOTES: This morning I woke up to a beautiful, sunny Easter morning. My roommate and I went to church and then joined some of our friends for brunch. I wasn't wholly convinced that I was going to make my way over to the gym today to repeat 13.4.  I was not confident that I could improve on my 93 reps I pulled out on Thursday. But, I'm glad I decided to give this workout another go. 

I improved SIX whole reps on this beast! I completely changed up my game plan and pulled singles the entire time on the Clean & Jerks (with the exception of ripping out the first 3 UB). 

This is pretty much what I looked like, expect with shorter spandex and no dreadlocks. 

If you look at my time below, you will realize that not only were my Clean & Jerks faster (with the exception of 9), my toes to bar improved a TON. I think I was able to hang onto the bar longer for toes to bar because my grip was so much better after dropping the bar from the top and not linking reps together. I also felt in a lot more control of my breathing the entire time. I pretty much never let myself rest besides the quick transitions.

I am very happy with this score. I hope it holds up well in the next couple hours. I can't wait to see how I, and RNCF, stack up against everyone after this wod. 

I can't believe there is only ONE MORE WEEK of the Open. That's crazy. It has literally flown by. 




Cheers to Jesus!
