Crossfit Brent: Road to the Crossfit Games

A.
Four sets of:
Drop Snatch x 1 rep
Rest 1-2 minutes

95 all sets

B.
Every minute on the minute for 10 minutes:
Snatch x 1 rep
Approximate loading % per set: 60, 70, 75-80, 80-85, 85-90, 90+, 90+, 90+, 90+, 90+

145, 170, 180, 190, 205, 215, 225x, 225x, 225

Snatching at these increments on the minute wasn't going to happen for me. Feeling weak tonight anyway but at least tried. Once I hit 205, I was thinking, no way. Backed it down with a little more rest just to hit 225 before I called it quits.

C.
Every minute on the minute for 10 minutes:
Clean & Jerk x 1 rep
Approximate loading % per set: 60, 70, 75-80, 80-85, 80-85, 85-90, 85-90, 90+, 90+, 90+

Wasn't even going to try OTM on this so worked up to 225 and focused on jerk technique.

MRI was clean for the most part. Told me to rest the shoulders. He thinks my pain is coming from the upper sub-scapular area where it ties in to the shoulder. No surgery and nothing serious is good... Pain and discomfort is bad. I guess I'll take it.
