"Freddy's Revenge"
5 rounds for time of:
5 shoulder to overhead (110% of 1RM press)
10 burpees
Freddy was scary, but I managed. Working in the corner helped me focus at the task at hand. Went unbroken on everything and had a steady pace ... I love push jerks cause it's a backpack movement to me, but 6:16 seemed a little fast @ 95lbs? ... maybe I wrote it down wrong?
Well, 110% of my 1RM press of 95lbs would be 105lbs so cutting that 10% (10lbs) off would make a difference. Also, push jerks is on my list of favorite movements (like pushing up ice blocks for a snow shelter or pushing up my backpack over a snow lip during a climb) and being 12lbs underweight helps me get up and down those burpees a LOT faster. If it’s wrong, someone please call me on it because it seems awfully fast no matter how I rationalize it.
Double-under PR day, though. When there's no pressure of a clock, I string them along ... even listened to Bryce answer my question about scaling as I produced that 20 PR ... relaxed, mindlessly mindful, and just doing what needs to be done. Tina and Alex were right. When I over-think things, I am my own worst enemy.
