- Warm-up: rowing, (modified) push-ups, kipping pull-ups, sit-ups, squats, one-mile run, 20# ball slams, etc.

- Burgener warm-up and progressive weight for squat-clean and jerk.

- Squat-clean and jerk, AMRAP in five minutes. Goal was to use 110# in order to continue on in the six-week CrossFit Games. Really, all I would've had to do just was the squat-clean, in order to get one rep and stay eligible. But, I could barely eke out two reps at 85#. I tried several times with 110#, and it just wasn't gonna happen!

- Dynamic warm-up, wheelbarrow walks, and handstand walks (sideways along the wall).

- Moving lots of heavy stuff back and forth: weighted sled (push), other weighted sled (pull), farmer carry, and "yoke" thing.

- For time: one mile walk with weight. I made a beeline to the smaller sandbag to snag it before anyone else did. I assumed the sandbag would be the best to carry over my shoulder or behind my neck, since it would be squishy and pliable -- much more comfortable than carrying a bumper plate and not as awkward as carrying a medicine ball. Well, the joke was on me, because it turned out to just be a canvas bag stuffed with a lumpy, hard, inflexible weight vest. 17:59 with 30#.
