Good session at Crossfit Metropolis, a new affiliate on the upper east side. Nice big space that's perfect for lifting (3 ft thick concrete floors) and all manner of serious training. Eric, the owner, was kind enough to let me come by and check the place out. I got to lift with a shiny new Pendlay Nexgen bar, which I really like.
Snatches felt good, although a bit inconsistent from a hasty warm-up. Really happy to get 165 with minimal jump forward.
Tried to convince myself to do seven rounds of the metcon, but got lazy. Slower than last time as well.
