6AM Crossfit. Tom, Eric and myself. Trainers Brian and Jerry.

Well, the cyst is still here. It was not my imagination. Got a wonderful idea on how to get rid of it from Davie at CrossfitCS (Crossfit Central Scotland) in Motherwell, Scotland.

“There is the Scottish way of treating a ganglion
Get a bottle of whiskey
Take a drink
Hit ganglion REALLY hard with bottle
Take another drink
Done.”

Works for me.

We worked on bar bell snatch as our skill this morning and incorporated that into the WOD. I did well with form on this and actually felt that I understood how to do it. Not to say I did it right.

WOD
7 Snatches
10 Air squats
AMRAP for 3 minutes/1 minute rest/5 rounds

Terry 11 sets
Eric 10 sets
Tom 9 sets

I was using 105 lbs (I think). Eric was using more, not sure the exact amount. He is way ahead of me in adding weight to these lifts. That is how I was able to get one more out than him. Tom did great as our newbie with the practice bar.

The snatches were a real drain on my back. I think I could do just a few at a heavier weight but my back will not hold up for more than a few reps at a time. I am fine once I stop but my back is screaming while I am doing the snatches.

Here is a little picture video from the last few days at Crossfitlegacy
