This was a bit of an off night for me. My body is always mad the week after daylight savings, and my shoulders and lower back were tight as well. Even though I wasn’t particularly happy with my performance, I know days like these still help build toward the exciting, PR days.

Worked from 53# to 78# on the last set of 2 push jerks. I got the first one, then rested with the bar for too long and failed on the second. I used a 12.5# DB for the metcon due to renegade rows being tough for me. The row part wasn’t bad, but my hips and lower back were struggling to keep a stable plank position, so I switched to just push-ups near the end.

Onward and upward — looking forward to 14.3!!!
I hit 98# on the last set of push jerks. Definitely a PR since my max on cleaning is 88# and then are done in tandem. I want to break triple digits overhead!!
