Warm-up:
front/back squat (to 155#)
5-3-3-2 deadlift (135,205,225,245)

Crossfit WOD 041008
7x1 deadlift (265,295,305,325,335,340 [f],dnf)
Finished up with 3x225 and 5x135.

3-2-2-2-2 split jerk (45,65,85,95,105)

Deadlifts felt good, didn't have to use mixed grip until 305. 335 is a new PR, but it felt really heavy. Afterwards, I psyched myself out imagining my spine exploding, and subsequently failed to pull 340 very far off the floor. I was set to go 7 rounds, but I knew I wasn't mentally prepared to pull anymore and bailed on the last set. Split jerks for speed, working on finishing the drive.

Light weight! Light weight!

Seriously, some heavy numbers there. Often with the heavy singles it feels like my spine's gonna burst.

Yah, it was quite weird, I had to talk myself into trying the last rep.
