I’m starting to make it “REAL”. I’ve begun making videos of some of the things I’m doing. This is for myself, as well as for you. I want to see my form and whether or not I’m doing things well. … Continue reading
I woke up hurting pretty much everywhere except my feet! So, I went to the gym for a fairly easy whole body workout with Jill. We came up with:
5 rounds for time of:
20 KB Swings (35#)
20 Wall Ball (10#)
20 Knee ups, holding up on dip bars, lifting 10# weight up and over a box using our feet.
20 Walking Lunges holding 10# weight overhead
row 10 calories
We finished in 37:00 even. This likely would have been a 20-25 minute WOD normally, but I was tired and wasn’t there for high intensity and pushing myself. I was there to work out my sore muscles and hopefully work out some of the pain. It was a good WOD and served it’s purpose because I left feeling less sore than when I walked in. It probably should have been half of what we did, but because we weren’t moving at a high intensity it turned out to be a pretty good recovery WOD.
Tomorrow will be a day of Rest – maybe a nice, easy run but other than that just resting!
It was Jill’s 42nd Birthday today, so we put together a great WOD!
2 rounds of 21 exercises (21 reps each, except on the run):
1. Air Squats
2. Sledge Hammer
3. Pull ups
4. Sit ups
5. Superman
6. Burpees
7. Walking Lunges
8. Wood Chop
9. Push ups
10. Box Jumps
11. Push Press 45#
12. KB Swings 35#
13. Back Squat 45#
14. Turkish Get ups 10#
15. Wall Ball 10lb
16. SDHP 45#
17. Tire flips
18. Double Unders
19. Knees To Elbows
20. Hanging Power Snatches 45#
21. Run 200 m
It took me 1:07:10 to finish the entire thing twice! YIKES!!!!!
I’m not feeling too sore from The Seven Saturday and Michael-Grace Sunday, but I am tired and feel kind of low-energy. So, I went to the gym and just did the posted WOD, not pushing things or trying to go hard. I just wanted to loosen up tight muscles and do a little something.
Front Squats 5×5 @ 65# (1 minute rest between sets)
then
3 rounds for time of:
30 Kettlebell Swings (35#)
30 Diamond Push ups
30 Walking Lunges
then, rest 5 minutes, and take a brisk walk for 20 minutes.
I finished the 3 rounds in 14:03. The push ups were the hardest part. My arms are very tired from the last several weeks of heavy overhead stuff. I will be taking a break on anything overhead this week so that I can be rested up and ready for Grace on Sunday.
