Trickle, 205, Squat up to 265 x 1, Very stiff going into this, I did 135 x 1 and then jogged a 200 to loosen up, did 185 x 3 and then jogged a 200. After that I did 225 x 3, 245 x 3, 265 x 1. Chop Shipper, 27:59, I knew a diet consisting of a few pieces of beef jerky, a handful of nuts/dried fruit, an apple, and some brocoli was not enough, especially considering that is all I had all day. Going into this in the evening I gulped down a carb gel packet and a 5-hour energy before working on my squats and hoped it would sustain me through the chipper. It did not. The thrusters, pullups, and 400 was not bad, but moving to 135 seemed like going to 235. The GTO were exhausting and the runs just got worse and worse as I felt my energy level below the red line. I learned that using a med ball on the squat cleans was a bad idea when my elbows got a little slow on the third one and I bottomed out on the ball. A painful left wrist would be my reminder through the rest of the workout. A broken set of dips and what seemed like a 5 mile run later and the workout was finally on the downhill side. The last set of GTO was a breeze compared to the first and although I felt like puking on the next run, I had nothing to lose so I forged on. The OHS were done with relative ease and then I had to MOD the HSPU by putting down the ABMAT. Got 6 of them, and then 1 and 1 and 1. Done more for completion than time, I chose this WOD for my return from a short break to jumpstart my body and mind. Result=SUCCESS.
