Hump Day!
My first inclination today was to take a rest day. And then I decided I couldn't pass up squat cleans. I love squat cleans. My knee is feeling pretty decent, so why not?
Little did I know we were in for the Jenks Mile this morning. This really took it out of me, and by the time the WOD came around I was already wiped out.
Jenks Mile:
400m run 1:51
200m run 0:52
400m run 2:03
200m run 0:53
400m run 2:0? - think it was 2:05 but not positive...left my notes at the gym.
I was so worn out after this, I didn't know how I would do the WOD. But I didn't have time to think about it too much, so I just did the best I could with the energy I had left.
Elizabeth:
21-15-9 reps of
Squat Clean - 95#
ring dips
My time: 17:28, Rx weight, bar dips
It took me well over 6 minutes just to do the first 21 squat cleans! This is one of my better lifts, one that I'm pretty strong on and enjoy doing. Seriously, I love squat clenas. But I was stunned to find how little I had in the tank after only three reps!! Holy cow! I contemplated scaling the weight down, but I didn't have the energy to take the plates off!! So I struggled through, just concentrating on good form, not passing out, and not puking...and certainly no missed reps.
