happy saturday friends. today was my first attempt at 18.2:
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10 reps of:
dumbbell squats @ 2x 15 kg
i really love this workout. i can fucking front squat for days and iām small which means burpees are pretty easy for me. i love cleans. i love heavy cleans so much, even though i chicken out sometimes when the weight gets heavy and forget how to get under the bar.
i made some slight errors in the first part; fucked up my round of 8 because i thought i still was on the round of 7, and didnāt go fast enough on the last round of burpees. still, i finished that in 8:07, which is currently the fastest female time in the gym, but i know i can knock a few seconds off that. i cleaned 61 easy and then couldnāt get 65 at all (do you ever just. hate yourself.) and i know itās because i havenāt gone that heavy in a while and i also know itās because i didnāt quite feel ready.
get under 8 min on the first component
take my time and warm up my cleans early
maybe try and hit 65+ in the warm upĀ
take the first attempt at 61 again because i know iāll be fatigued
trust myself. i know how to clean; i just have to trust that i can do it. donāt think so much
ALSO new shirt is from megsquats who is currently my favourite person (super cool powerlifter and all about getting more women into strength training and just. just my favourite person right now) so if you like watching videos of people doing cool things and lifting heavy things please go watch her because i love her.
