Warm-up WOD
7min EMOM:
10 kettle bell swings (62 lb /35 lb)
6 burpees
5 min rest
METCON
15 min to complete 5 Rounds of:
10 box jumps
10 pull-ups
10 goblet squats (62lb / 35lb)
10 HSPU (or 5 wall climbs)
Today felt very much like a regular crossfit WOD, short, intense, and harder than it seems. The warm-up was great and I finished all the reps every minute, yay!
I did the pull-ups with the medium band, and been trying to incorporate more kipping into it, I think I'm getting the hang of it!
Wall climbs... we haven't done those in AGES and I consider them my mortal enemies. I gave it a shot for the first round, and touched my stomach to the wall for the first time ever, but holy shit they're so hard to dooooooo.
Because of those 5 wall climbs that took me an eternity to complete, I was behind and only completed 4 rounds of the WOD. (For the rest I switched to box push-ups)
But I'm a little prouder of myself, so it's all good.
note to self: wear a more supportive bra for box jumps, it is inefficient to hang on to your boobs while jumping.

Grace & Cindy, sitting on a tree
WOD
"Grace & Cindy Sitting on a Tree"
Cindy is:
5 pull-ups
10 push-ups
15 air squats
Complete:
10 clean & jerk (155# / 105#)
1 round of Cindy
8 clean & jerk
1 Cindy
6 C&J
Cindy
4 C&J
Cindy
2 C&J
Cindy
After this point continue doing Cindy until the timer runs out (25 minutes total for wod)
I really wanted to do this wod in the morning with my usual crew. Not many girls wrote their score/weights on the board.
I started at 80# because now that we're back on Smolov my back already started giving me that pain and I figured for this wod I should take it easy.
After completing the first set of 10 I upgraded to 95# cuz I was feeling badass.
That was the right choice.
I'm still doing the pull-ups with double elastic band.
=sigh=
Petite Thunder Thighs did kipping pull-ups. But I lifted more than her. Damn, I am so jelly her kipping pull-ups were looking good. I tried one band, utter fail. Did 5 rounds in the remaining time.
I didn't check how long it took me to finish the actual wod. Was resting too much anyways.
When the wod was over these two dudes (let's call them Sailorbeard and Froggy) called me over, literally by gesturing a "come here" with their hands.
They then proceeded to tell me that my progress in this crossfit has been great, that I look really different from when I started, and I've gained a TON of strength.
Do I diet? How much weight have I lost? Will I enter the in-house competition?
These dudes see me sporadically because I only go to the 8pm class as my last resort.
I am truly flattered.
I guess wearing those knee-high reebok socks with the shorts looks good after all.
