Worked the snatches, this was the first time I've done them so it was a bit of a learning experience.
For time:
30 snatches @ 75#
30 pullups
Run 800m
25 snatches @ 75#
25 pullups
Run 800m
20 snatches @ 75#
20 pullups
Did it in 40:45. Again Danny worked with me, seems like my Kung Fu training makes me go for the horse stance. I dropped the bar a couple of times, but I eventually got it.
For Grace's b-day we did an extra 25 overhead squats, wall-balls, and burpees. I've never done overhead squats before, but again working with Danny I nailed it. Jerry commented that I've really dialed in on the technique, so I'm very happy about that. I really do feel like barbell work is my best work.
On that note, I can't stand pull-ups, they really hurt my hands. I've talked to some non-crossfitters about hand maintenance, and everyone says I shouldn't shave my calluses. ....I know they don't know how crossfit works, but they really seem to know what they're talking about. I'm just not sure what to do now.

what about gloves?
Hey there! Thought about gloves, but from what I understand you need some calluses in order to lift weights without pain. If this new regimen doesn't work though, gloves will be a serious consideration.
