Time to Tar and Feather Someone

I had a complete and total mental shut down tonight!  I don't know what happened during the warm up but I was getting so frustrated doing those squat cleans.  I barely did a squat.  I don't know what the hell I was doing.  I wanted so badly to ask if I could get a box and just do 2 or 3 squat cleans correctly instead of 5 on the minute since those 5 really sucked.  But figured since it was the warm up it wasn't worth asking.  I'd rather do less reps and do them correctly than do all of the reps posted and do a half ass job like I did tonight.  I can't believe I just said this but it's how I feel.  I used to hate getting scaled back but tonight I believe I needed to in the warm up. 

Tonight's WOD consisted of:

5 Rounds

15 Knees to Elbows
15 Good Mornings
15 meter Bear Crawls
15 Box Jumps

Time 27:10

I felt like I couldn't get my knees up high enough but at least I kept trying. 

By the time I got to the good mornings I could barely pick up the bar.  I've never had it hurt like that but the coach said afterwards it was probably from the warm up.  Well, that sucked! 

Bear craws really suck.  Something about crawling around the floor on your hands and knees is so freakin' hard!  I just wanted to hug the floor as I never thought I would see the end. 

OMFG Box jumps!!!  WTH???  I had done good with the box jumps but the last few times of doing them I can't even jump on one 45lb. weight. 

I don't know what happened tonight as it didn't make any sense for me to mentally shut down.  I get frustrated a lot during WOD's but totally shutting down and seriously thinking I couldn't finish and wanted to give up and I went in not being tired or sore???  This just boggles my mind.  I have to think some more about this and try to figure it out.  I can't do this again!
