Hey man, take this as advice not dis. I would have considered myslef weak and great engine before this year. I am focusing on strength and just doing the conditioning BP puts. I would advise not throw in extra conditioning. Based on your numbers you need more work on the strength base. We can always build that engine later on. just my thoughts, take them with a grain of salt.
Did Saturday’s work yesterday, today was rough.
A. 230#
B. Skipped for today

D. Skipped; all the benches were full
F. 12-9-6 clean #185, dips – 5:55
Thanks Taylor, I have some higher powers that asked me to jump into classes from time to time to do workouts with the general members. My focus needs to definitely be strength. Some times it’s easier for me to give up on the day and do another metcon when I feel defeated.
With that said, back to the strength gains tomorrow!
Thanks for posting! I’ve been needing a strong female to chase and to stay motivated especially with the Metcons. In turn I will post my scores but I do follow the blog a day behind. Cheers!

Missed the last rep on most of my sets today for the first time in this cycle. Feeling much stronger which is fun but I’m having trouble finding energy for the finishers.
Awesome! I will then:) thanks!

E: 12-9-6 SqClean185, MU: 15:36 – paced. i think i made
real progress technically with both of these movements today. Goals were
proper bar hit with every clean and no failed MU – and gymnasty
multiple reps only with success (so i think).

Note: Strength cycle is definitely working, but I feel like some days are much better than others. Been trying to capitalize on good days and be smart on the cruddy ones.
