That was fun! First time with Grace (I think). Started with 7 touch ‘n go and then moved to singles for the rest. Tried to keep moving but reps 20-26 were tough!
Thanks for counting Rob and for the good tips Michelle!

A few thank yous are in order:
Josh: for the pre-WOD advice
Michelle: What Tania said!!!!
Alayne: for counting
Chita: for capturing it (although I may take that back when I watch it ;))
Everyone else: for getting me through the last bunch.
Today really felt like an Open preview. Energy at 9 and 10 was amazing, and everyone crushed it! Super inspiring!

All these Rx’d post before me, sorry to break the pattern ?
5:00 @ 57,
Had intended to go heavier (not Rx’d!) but have tight shoulders a new triceps (as Adamo will attest) so wasn’t going to happen!
Still 14lbs heavier than the time before and split time was 2:24, so pretty consistent with the moves, so will take that
Thanks Michelle and to Sandy for counting

Third time doing Grace, first time rx’d. Other attempts at Grace were at 115#.
Happy with tonight, except that I hit my chin on my third jerk. Not only did it hurt, it messed with me for the rest of WOD.
Fun class. Great work 5:00pm.

Another throwdown with Greggor, Cody and Ken.
2:07 Monster PR (46s)
Again… I will eventually learn how not to shoulder press the last 10 reps of every damn workout.
Without Greg in the side view mirror just smashing the shit out of the bar, Cody hot on our heels and Ken laughing at my lack of technique it would have been much slower. New goal of sub 2 min.
Compete to be better… Good advice right there.
Thanks Erin/Jay and the boys for making that awesome!

Better pacing strategy and I think sub 2 is pretty feasible. Next time touch and go for the first 10-15 reps and delay going to singles as long as possible.
Thanks Erin and Jason.

A) only had a few minutes at work so did death by DB thrusters 30#. Made it to to 17rds+ 14 reps 167 reps total. Did 3 sets of 11 afterwards for an even 200.
B) Deadlift 3×5 250#
C) strict MU work from a sitting position on the floor. Started with a bent arm 5×5
D) plank holds 1 min rest 1 min x3

110# – my usual weight since 2012
4:15 – PR by 2:14
Grace through the years at 110#:
2012 – 7:22 (did split jerks because I thought push jerks would be too hard)
2012 – 9:25 (did push jerks and paced them as if they were hard)
2012 – 8:14 (did push jerks then switched to split jerks because I felt PJs had gotten too hard)
2013 – 6:40 (decided to stop worrying and love the push jerk)
2013 – 6:29 (push jerks are my friend)
2016 – 4:15 (embraced touch & go push jerks for as long as possible, used the 35# bar but still at #110, had Karen counting to free up my attention, followed Storbakken’s coaching to split jerk the last rep)
I will be using a 35# for everything but DL from now on.

Thank Erin and Jason.

First time actually doing “Grace”
I’ve done Double Grace in class, and Hang a Grace in intro but have never done “Grace”
there gets to a point where I crash in the middle of the workout and try to hold on but just can’t seem to get myself to move any faster.
2:57 as RX’d

The only feeling I can equate post-Grace to, is the feeling of post 50-cal test on the bike….
Cody is still faster than I am after he did the workout once 🙁
Thanks for the push Sarah, Juli and Marila. Thanks for counting Derek cause I was not in any mental capacity to count myself.
Greg, Derek, and Cody…always good to throw down with you gents
