Notes
Did Level 2 (4x, 95lbs) with knees-to-chest. I can do toes-to-bar, but I can't link them at all. I think I need to work on keeping active shoulders a bit better. The front squats were a little rough, largely because I didn't stretch out properly beforehand. I'm very glad I didn't do 135.
I opted to avoid rope climbs because I was worried about wearing out forearm strength, but I did one just fine during the practice. I definitely need to wear long socks or pants when rope climbs are in the WOD, because the rope burned up my shins on the way back down.
I hate Burpees. I wore a shirt today that said "Burpees: 0 people like this", which was a sacrifice for the sake of fashion, because that spun cotton was absurdly uncomfortable under stress.
