Yesterday's WOD:
“Cindy”
20min AMRAP:
5 Pull-ups
10 Push-ups
15 Squats
I tweaked something in my abs/groin during Tuesday's WOD so I took Wednesday off and we modified the push-ups in Cindy to bench press (55#) because I feel the tweak most when doing pushups and other ab work. Used the green and red bands for the pull ups. Got in 10 full rounds plus 5/10/6. I had to do more walking from the push ups to the bench than I would have liked and trying to get my foot in the bands was a pain...anyway...I worked hard for 20 minutes straight but hate that each round took me about 2 minutes.
The part that really sucked, though, is that sitting up from the bench presses hurt more than I would have liked. So...I'm taking today off and will rest all weekend. Gonna get in some yoga on Sunday and Monday and then get back to the box on Tuesday. Hoping that the 4 days away from CF will be enough for this dumb pull in my groin/abs.0 -

WoD:
21, 15, 9 of:
Thrusters with 50 lb. bar
Box Jumps
I'm pleased to say that since discovering rowing, my times have only continued to improve. The first 500 was 2:32 and the second was 2:28. I busted out 34 knee raises and felt OK about that. The thrusters felt pretty good the entire time I did them; though, I'd only do about 4-6 at a time before setting the bar down to rest a little.
The real star of the workout for me was the box jumps, which are pretty new to me. I had some kind of mental block about them for a while and was completely unable to even consider them. I'd get ready to jump and then my brain would just say "Nope!" and refuse to let my feet leave the ground. So I started by jumping up onto one of those little platforms that step-aerobics classes often use, and last night I managed to put two tiers underneath it and perform each segment of box jumps uninterrupted.
I finished the WoD in 15:17 and got a new sticker in my Star Wars workout book because I felt so darn accomplished.0 -
What is a shoulder touch?
It's when you're in the hand-stand position and you lift one hand at a time to touch either the opposite shoulder or the same shoulder :happy:
I saw someone doing this at my gym yesterday! Glad to know what it is because it kiiiind of looked like fun.0 -
Testing week for us so tonight is a 5k. Going to skip it since I am running one on Thursday. Also going to miss out Wednesday as I don't want to do a WOD the day before a race.0
