Jerky Boys and Girls

Clean and Jerk 5-4-3-2-1-1-1

I was really gassed in this WOD. At the end of my set of 5 reps of I seeing stars. Every round I was seeing stars. I thought my C&J 1RM was 70#s, but I found out it is 75#s. After several failed attempts at 75#s, I just walked away. I was down on my myself for sure. I guess there could be a lot factors in why I couldn't get myself under the bar; maybe I was just tired from all the work I had already done, I just started eating "clean" again and my body is recalibrating from loss of calorie denseness it got from carbs, I was wearing running shoes with squishy soles, or maybe that I was on 6 hours of sleep and had not eaten a thing for breakfast before coming into class.... who knows? 

So, I will chock this up to a "next time" and hopefully will be able to do 75#s C&J in the near future, and then smash it with a new PR.
