Garage

3 rounds, not for time, of:

8 KB snatches/arm (53)
Handstand hold (nose-to-wall), 45 seconds
40 double-unders

Snatch (3-second pause in bottom position) 12 x 1 @ 75% (OTM)

135

4 rounds of:

30 seconds of rowing
Rest 30 seconds
30 seconds of press (75)
Rest 30 seconds
30 seconds of double-unders
Rest 30 seconds
30 seconds of push-ups (hand-release)
Rest 30 seconds

Notes:  Finally found a bit of a rhythm on the snatches.  All 12 reps were super crisp and bottom position was upright.  Got trashed in the metcon by my pressing endurance.  I knew I'd reach failure eventually, but was surprised how it early it happened.  Aerobic system is out of whack right now, too.  Need to get back into a better training groove.  Also, used my new Reheband knee sleeves for the first time today.  It's amazing how warm they keep your knees.  I don't intend to use them for snatches regularly, but will use them for squatting, cleans, and competition-type squatting movements (thrusters and wall ball shots).  Interestingly, they feel really good if you wear them around your calves.  I think I'll do this whenever I'm not using them on my knees.
