Snow...More Snow!
Seriously annoyed with Old Man Winter. I'm tired of this crap. Fortunately this morning's snow was just a very light dusting and didn't impede my efforts to get to the gym. I'm ready for some warmer weather. This weekend is looking nice - probably warm enough for a run! That'll cheer me up!
Meanwhile, here's why I braved the frozen tundra this morning:
WOD
30-25-20-15 and 10 rep rounds of:
Burpees
Box jumps (Men 24” box, Women 20” box)
Kettlebell swings (Men 55 lbs, Women 35 lbs)
My time: 22:30 - modified
Scaling option was given to skip the round of 30. I had all good intentions of doing every rep, honestly. I got through the round of 30 in what seemed like forever, and decided at that point I was going 30-20-10. Well, when finished the 20 I had way plenty time to do the 10 and regretted not doing the 25. I could've finished the entire thing. What I ended up doing was 30-20-15-10-5, and still had 2.5 minutes to spare. I should stop underestimating myself. Seriously.
Strength today was not one of my favorites: shoulder press
5 sets of 5 @ 45-50-55-60-65. The last rep of 65 I failed to lock out.
And, I didn't weigh today. I'll weigh tomorrow. Hopefully I'll be down half a pound or something. Anything to keep me encouraged.
