...and then you meet the bear.

I was going to do something kind of 'light' because Ive got some wierd issues at the moment with my ankle still being tender and my neck/shoulder having some serious crick/nerve issue- i'm fucking falling apart- BUT... I can never do light so well.

I got out to the park and wasn't sure what I would do. The plan originally would have had me doing AoS Firepower today but my ankle isn't ready yet. So I decided to do snatch ladders 1-10/10-1 L&R. At first in my head they were going to breathing ladders (1/1, 2 breaths, 2/2, 4 breaths,etx) but I started and just did sets 1-5 w/o stopping. Then I took 30 secs, did sets 6-7 without stopping. Took 1 min, did set 8, 1 min, set 9, 30 sec, set 10. Then 40 yards walking lunges across the small field and back to the bell. Did set 10 and after that I met the bear.. do you guys know the bear? Let me take a break and tell you about the bear-

When you meet the bear, he usually gets in your way and hands you either a couch or a refrigerator or sometimes both. He then tells you that if you want to continue, you must carry the said items, along with him on your back otherwise he will promptly eat you.

So after set 10 part deux, I met the bear. I was determined to get all my ladders done so I dug in and picked up the couhc, the fridge, AND the bear and ploughed onwards into the abyss.

I did sets 1-4 after that without stopping. Threw up. Took 2 min. Then did set 9. Threw up. Took 3o seconds, did another set 1-3. Took 2 min. Then did set 1-4, 30 seconds, and another 1-4, 1 min and another 1-4.

Then I fell down and didnt move. 220 snatches is the highest rep count I have ever done with the 20KG. It fucked me up. I was going to try some TGU's or something else but that was enough. Tomorrow I will be sore in my core, thighs, and biceps.

Watchout for that bear, he's a motherfucker.
