tttTD (18.2/18.2a)
5:45 – 282 – and adding Father Time into the mix, I’m one second faster and .5 pounds weaker. I consider that a huge increase in all facets with the father time factorial. Actually adjusted well to that burpee standard and was pleased with my footwork. I feel the round of 7 and 8 were slowest in burpee. Footwork got a little sloppy in 8, round of 9 wasn’t as fast as it should’ve been but I was semi anticipating putting down the hammer for round 10 of both squat and burpee. Opened at 255 and missed but was planning on going up regardless. Went straight to 282.5 and I overpulled, hit my throat and then I’m pretty sure I hit my funny bone with the clean and fought hard as hell to stand up so I called it with around 90 seconds left. In hindsight opening at 245 would’ve been smarter and would’ve hit a cleaner 275 leaving the door open for a jump to 285 or 290.
After note, still don’t know about funny bone but definitely hit my throat as I tried swallowing some lunch and it kind of hurts just a little to swallow.
