Crossfit Total

Yesterday was Crossfit Total.  I cringed as soon as I saw the workout posted, I'm not in the best headspace and didn't feel confident with getting my 1RM on any of my lifts.  I decided to take the pressure off myself and go with what felt good.  I had no plan on what my 1RM could be.  Overall I was fairly happy with my result, an improvement of 28.5 kg since the last time I did it and only 3 kg less than my best. My squat is only 5 kg less than my previous PB as is my deadlift.  My back felt awesome which is the best part of the whole thing.  The only issue I have is that I never went to failure and I think a large part of that is that I wasn't sure what I was capable of.  We only get 3 attempts at our max lifts and I had to guess my final weight.  At least now I have something to go on.
