When your life flashes before your eyes, make sure you've got plenty to watch.

BB Gymnastics
1) 15 minutes to establish a 1RM Snatch.
Tried at 135 several times but failed all attempts. Was able to get under it but didn't catch it right. The bar fell forward. Will have to work on snatch grip deadlifts. Pulling the bar at 135 felt heavy and I think this is causing a mindfuck for my 1RM

2) 15 minutes to establish a 1RM Clean & Jerk.
Tried 165 several times but couldn't get under the bar for the jerk. The clean at 175 is getting easier so my 1RM for clean has probably gone up. For the jerk and all future jerks, will have to work on spreading my legs wider apart. Going further apart will help me get under the weight. Also tried going with a wider grip on the clean. It didn't hurt my shoulders and it definitely makes the jerk easier due to the shorter barbell path with the wider grip.

Strength
1X20 Back Squat
Did this at 155. Last couple reps were hard but could have gone heavier. Should try 165 next time

Conditioning
21-15-9 reps for time of:
Deadlifts @ 315#/205#
Box Jumps 30”/24”

Did the DL with 225. And it was really heavy. 13:29

Morning WOD 

4 RFT
Row 500m
30 Box Jumps

20:40. Workout felt long. Box jumps were scary. Lack coordination in the morning.

Clean 7x3 145 145 145 145 145 145 145

Did the clean during the WOD instead. Heavy enough for the WOD.

Row 500m
18 Thrusters 65

Strength B

missed the clean yesterday due to time.
Clean 5x5 95 95 (115 135 135 135 145f)
