WOD

Workout of the Day

WOD:

Perform the following for time:

  • 10 Knees to Elbows
  • 20 Lunges W/ 45# plate overhead
  • 10 Push Up’s on the plate (alternating arm on the plate)
  • 20 KB Swings @ 2 pood

Rest 1 minute and repeat for a total of 5 rounds.

RESULTS:

27:52 @ 1.5 pood

Anything that involves kettlebells never bodes well for me. Between the knees-2-elbows and the kettlebells, by forearms where toast. The last two rounds, I was only getting 2 swings sometimes. I was the last one to finish, but I did finish.

WOD:

Max Rounds in 12 minutes of:

  • 7 Ring Dips
  • 10 Suit Cases
  • 7 Power Snatches @ 95#’s

Recover, then 4 Prowler Pushes

RESULTS:

7 rounds… I think. And 1 prowler push. By calves were still a bit tweaked, so I didn’t want to push them and not be able to walk for another week. So only the 1 prowler push and I moved onto foam rolling.

WOD: Jess’s Birthday Workout

Deadlift Heavy! We will warm up quick, start light and work your way up. The goal is not a 1 rep max (unless your feelin it). The goal is simply to lift 30-40 reps tomorrow.

Max rounds in 4 minutes of:

  • 10 Box Jumps 24″
  • 10 Sumo Deadlift High Pulls @ 95#’s

Rest 1 minute and repeat for a total of 3 round

RESULTS:

Worked up to 305# for the deadlifts.

3 round, 2 round +10 sumo + 1 boxjumps, 2 rounds +10 sumo

All I have to say is… “boxjumps?? again?? really??” Being that my calves are finally almost recovered, I didn’t event attempt to jump down off the box and did step downs instead… which took forever. But my sumos where pretty good. Usually got the first round unbroken and then made it to about 5 on the consecutive rounds.

OPEN WOD #1:
10 minute AMRAP:
• 30 double-unders
• 15 Power snatch 75#

RESULTS:
3 rounds + 5 double-unders

A whole round more than I was hoping for!! j/k … For someone who can barely do double-unders, I’m pretty happy. I actually did a few set of several double-unders in a row. They may not have been pretty, bit I got them done and I have the lashes to prove it.

Not sure why I finally ended up deciding to do this, but figured why not. I really need to find some motivation again, hopefully this will help me get excited again and also give me some benchmarks to improve on.

I hit the gym at noon today since I’ll be heading off to a concert tonight and needed to get my burpees done. Plus I can’t pass up FGB ;-)

Burpees Day 112:

Hit the gym a little early to crank out 112 burpees. Then practiced some double-unders before moving onto…

WOD:

Fight Gone Bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The stations are:

  • Wall-ball, 10 ft target (Reps)
  • Sumo deadlift high-pull 75# (Reps)
  • Box jump 18″ (Reps)
  • Push-press 75# (Reps)
  • Row (Calories)

In this workout you spend one minute at each of the five stations, resulting in a a five-minute round after which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. This event calls for five rounds. The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. On call of ‘rotate,’ the athletes must move to the next station immediately. One point is given for each rep, except on the rower, where each calorie is one point.

RESULTS:

91, 87, 77, 64, 87 = 406

For as much as that sucked… not a run at it for me.
