Notes:
1) 85#  I somehow tweeked my shoulder. I had to be very careful on these. The high hang was difficult to stick.

2) 135# I did this same set at 135# a week or so ago, and I failed on the 3rd rep of sets 4&5. I was able to get all reps successfully this time. Baby steps...

Most of the pullups were singles. These were subbed for bar muscle ups. I was pulling as high as I could. Most pulls hit below my rib cage.
Thrusters were broken up 3/3/3, 3/2/2, 3/1/1  I shouldn't have done singles on the last set. I had a bad pull and had to drop the bar.

I only got to 120# on 121117 due to still being weak from surgery. I knew I could do more than that, so bumped up this time. Got all these without help.
+
Round 1: 12, 8, 17
Round 2: 12, 8, 13
Round 3, 10, 8, 13
Burpees box jumps were awful. I just have no speed with these. I had a lot of trouble stringing my C2Bs together. I dropped off and did singles almost the whole time. G2O got heavy quicker than I thought they would. Snatched them.
+
These went pretty well. My left hand is much less stable than my right. Rx was 55#, but I've never done these before, so I stayed at 35# to get comfortable with the movement.

B. Press 5 sets
55# x5, 65# x5, 75x5, 85x3, 90# x1

Notes:
First day back in the the gym after my wisdom teeth. I couldn't push very hard. Still on a lot of medication, but wanted to move around some. Everything felt fine, but felt MUCH heavier than it should have. I attempted 95# on the press and couldn't get it. This is 15# under my PR. I'm not going to let it worry me though. I haven't been able to eat much, and being on bed rest for a week will through anybody off.
