Soon! I need my girlfriend to take one because I can't get my entire body in otherwise. I would be interested to see yours as well.

I think he was shocked at how fast they were.

I went to open gym at our crossfit gym, so I used the opportunity to do crossfit accessories. This was my first time doing deadlift TNG not in a metcon, and I really like it. I can't faf around worrying about my setup. I wonder if I will still like it as the weight gets heavy.
BMU EMOM was fun. 2nd rep was always easier than the first.
I debated with skipping the 2k time trial because I had to do it at home with nobody cheering me on, but I got it done. I know my 100% effort pretty well, and this was probably 98% ish. I didn't completely empty the tank at the end (saving some PRs for later and saving myself for future training), but I was lying on the ground for a good 5 minutes afterwards. I didn't really have a plan except to target sub 8, but then went out too hot. My previous PR of 8:09 was from March 2017, so whatever. I'm happy I did it and now have a benchmark to beat next month. I'm thinking 7:45 is doable with another month of lots of rowing and eating, and better pacing.
