It was great to see some new faces today -- welcome to Sofia and Sherry.
Today's workout was (as usual) harder than it appeared when I first looked at it on the board. I gave up doing the full pushup on the burpees about halfway through - Jon said that was OK as long as I really jumped at the end and that worked fine for me!! My time was 9:xx
WOD was loads of fun, maybe14:xx? By the third round I had that familiar shaky all over feeling that tells me I'm approaching my limit. Cool! 20# on the DB snatches and I'm psyched because the last time I did a similar workout I had to step down to 15# halfway through. This stuff is actually working.
Thanks to Steve,Thor, Jon and Gramps for all the encouragement this morning! Linda
Remember, the one-arm dumbbell snatch is a leg-driven movement. As such, the weight you're able to use is a function of your hip extension capacity. The more power you're able to transfer from the legs to the torso, the more you'll snatch!

Great job today, ladies and gentlemen.

Keep working it!
Best,
