Strength went well, metcon not so much!
I worked up to 53# on the strict press, which was my goal and I believe a PR. The last rep of my last set was a little rough, but I got it up there without arching too badly. I definitely noticed my left arm is a LOT weaker.
I used 38# for the metcon, and it didn’t feel as light as I thought it would. This metcon killed me, for some reason my body just wasn’t responding well, particularly on the burpees. There is a possibility I skipped part of the round of 4, but I’m really not sure, I completely lost track. I finished in 8 something, but I don’t know if that’s valid. I just felt awful during this. Hoping it was a fluke.
I subbed knee-raise on the bar for the L holds, and got 30, 30, and 20 seconds. I really felt this in my hip flexors!
