Monday November 7th

GG WOD3 - "Spiderman"
5 RFT
20 Box Jumps (full stand up on box)
15 Pull ups
5 Wall Walks

Time- 16 minutes ish

I kept time poorly on this one.. the clock died around 7 minutes and I restarted it and finished around 9 somehting, so the time is just an estimate..
I imagine they are going to cap this one at 15 minutes, so I am going to have to bust ass to get in under the cap.

I slowed this one up on purpose just to sort of get a feel for what would be the "worst part"..

As expected the wall walks are by far the worst part, they make my head spin, blood rush, and sweat pour.. sucks asss. The box jumps are annoyingly slow when you do the "full stand up hip open on top" standard, but it is what it is, it shows control of the movement so I get that, and it makes judging easier..
Pull ups I did the first two rounds without breaking and the last 3 I did sets of like 10/5 or 9/6.. which is about normal for me. Mostly it comes down to grip and keeping the kip rhythm.

I think my plan for this on Saturday is to try to do more of the box jumps with the recovery jump, not a break in between each, and to take 2-3 breaths between every wall walk no matter how tired I am.. It is only 5 of them at any one time, but its a movement that you are much better off doing quickly.. If your first step up the wall is small, you are fucked.

I do not picture this one being my best WOD of the day because I will already be tired from the previous 2 and this just isn't a wheelhouse WOD for anyone..slow box jumps, high rep pull ups, and shitty awful wall walks.. This one I will just have to gut out and minimize breaks, its gonna be very tough no matter how I slice it up on game day.
