WENDLER | WEEK2: BACK SQUAT(275# 1RM)
Money round: 185# - 14 reps
(Doh! The last set should have been 225# this week. I was wondering why it felt so easy as I was doing the set. Found out afterwards.)
WOD:
1 Rep Max Clean & Jerk
175#
(power clean - at some point I want to work more on technique. Through building strength in a full ROM squat through Wendler, and when I get the technique and confidence to do a clean with full ROM, I think my 1RM clean is going to make a fairly siginificant jump.)
Then...
1 Rep Max Weighted Box Jump
20" box
45# dumbbell in each hand
(...at a body-weight of 298#. Had to add that. :))
Becoming CrossFit is intended to track my personal journey (an average guy) to becoming fit using CrossFit methods.

WOD - Wednesday - 100804
WENDLER | WEEK2: BENCH PRESS(205# 1RM)
Money round: 165# - 11 reps
WOD:
Hang Power Cleans (95#)
Push ups with hand release at bottom
Run 100m (after each set of Push ups)
10-8-6-4-2
6:04
NOTES:
Tear on my right hand from power snatches the other day so I used a little lighter weight on the HP cleans. Would have liked to use 115# for this one. Did regular push-ups instead of on the knees for the 'added weight'. Felt really strong today. The HP cleans @ 95# actually felt light. I feel weird saying that, because I still remember shortly after I first started Crossfit not being entirely sure that I'd be able to clean 95# one time.
