    13.1 … My oh my, two favorite Open WODs from last year… all rolled into one! :D

    It. Is. On.

      haha yup this one’s right up your alley Mario!

      Personally, I’m pleased, burpees dont phase me anymore, snatches went well last year, and we are taking on the longest time domain week 1. Both long WODs in 2011 and 2012 crushed me, hoping for shorter couplets/triplets to show up later. Maybe one other with something heavy.

      Also, I WILL NOT be doing heavy deadlifts in a WOD the day before 13.1 … that never helps! :D

    The last couple @ 135 were smooth, lets hope they come together as nice for 13.1 too.

      You will have 30 lighter reps to (kinda) warm-up. You will do great.

    Man I wish I had a Tabata clock for this one! Almost lost track of the time cause I was focusing on the DUs haha.

    Gonna go back later tonight to do another WOD and practice Snatchs, hopefully 13.1 won’t kill me on Saturday but I doubt it!

    I would like to remind/suggest everyone to do lots of hip & shoulder mobility tonight for the snatches tomorrow! It will help your lifts!

    Did some snatch practice at home
    10 sets – 15lbs
    10 sets – 35lbs
    10 sets – 45lbs
    5 sets – 65lbs
    5 sets – 65lbs
    Tried 75lbs (PR) and got 3.

    • Amanda
      March 7, 2013 at 12:05 pm #

      ooooOOOOoooh! Exciting PR Gilly! You can do 30 of them! :D

      • Gillyon
        March 7, 2013 at 12:11 pm #

        Probably not 30 of them…but my game plan is to speed through the WOD up until the 75lbs snatch and then take my time and try to get a few up.

    I made it into the 3rd set of burpees which was way farther than I had given myself credit for. I definitely took a lot of breaks. Probably longer ones than were necessary….

    Good Luck to everyone who is doing this tomorrow/Saturday!! You will feel great about 5 mins after it is over :)
