TGIF!
Well here we are at the end of another week. I made it to the gym four days this week. I just needed a break on Wednesday, so I slept in. Normally I'll do a home WOD when I do this, but this week I just rested. Those flannel sheets are amazing when it's 15° outside!
In anticipation of a few more "sleep in" days this winter, I have decided I need a kettlebell and some heavier dumbbells. Got to looking around on the web, and found they are not cheap. Mainly because of shipping costs. Holy crap - some of these places kill you on shipping.
But I found a work-around: Wal-Mart.com
Now, normally I avoid Wal-Mart like the plague. I haven't physically been inside a Wal-Mart store since 2007. I refuse. My mental health is worth far more than any savings they can offer. But online, they offer free shipping for orders over $50. I ended up getting a 35lb Kettlebell and two 25 lb dumbbells, for roughly $85. NO SHIPPING!!
So, next snow day or sleep-in day, I'm equipped.
Today's WOD was fun!
As many reps as possible in 7 minutes of:
Rope climbs
rest 3 minutes
As many reps as possible in 7 minutes of:
GHD sit-ups
rest 3 minutes
As many reps as possible in 7 minutes of:
Double unders
rest 3 minutes
As many meters as possible in 7 minutes of:
Handstand walk
rest 3 minutes
Athletes choice of order
I did:
Double Unders = 171
GHD Sit Ups = 75
10′ Rope Climbs = 11
Hand Stand Holds = 30, 30, 30, 30, 25, 20, 16 (seconds)
Our Strength was after the last 3 minute rest on the WOD:
5 min AMRAP Squat Clean & Jerk @ 105# = 11 reps
TGIF!!
