Looks like the coaches have intentionally transitioned away from lower body and have continued to punish the upper body and core.
WOD
For Time
100 Overhead squats, 65 lbs (Rx: 95 lbs)
10 Toes to Bar if the bar passes beneath the head
14:49
Breakdown of my overhead squat sets were 30, 15, 15, 15, 15, 10. I sort of wish I had just hunkered down and endured the pain of finishing off the final 25 reps without having to do another set of T2Bs. The mental battle of weighing the pain of a few more OHSs versus doing another 10 T2Bs was an interesting dynamic to this workout.
I knew that Rx'ing it would be pretty much impossible, but I tested out 85 lbs before starting. I knew immediately it would never happen.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, my legs were (and are) the least tired part of my body. This was a test of upper body strength for sure. After these last two days, I'm not sure what my performance will be like tomorrow and I'm even less confident about even showing up on Saturday. Sometimes the key is just to take it a few reps at a time.
