I did yesterday's workout today. My coach told me that I was crazy and today's was no where near as tough as yesterdays. I wanted to do it because I had already ran almost 3 miles on my rest day and today was allot of running... AMRAP 20 400m run and max rep pull ups.
I did yesterdays workout which again was:
AMRAP 20
45 pound Thruster, 5 reps
45 pound Hang Powercleans, 7 reps
45 pound Sumo Deadlift High-pull, 10 reps
The women's weight was actually 65 pounds, and although I probably could have done it, I wanted to work on my thruster form. So I dropped it and went for max rounds.
I got a little tip from a fellow Crossfitter, he looks at the clock as he does rounds like this to help pace himself. I know it doesn't seem like rocket science, but I had never looked at the clock before. I was just told to go all out. Well, if I go all out, I end up killing myself and getting less rounds I think because I don't pace myself.
This worked great for me today. I would do rounds and know that they couldn't take me longer then 1 min lets say. I would work hard to get it done, then take a well needed rest as the rounds went on. I ended up down to the wire with 12 rounds done, and a little over a min left on the clock.
My results are:
12 rounds 5 thrusters, 7 hang pwr cleans and 9 sdhp
That is right... I missed it by like 2 seconds for my last high pull... i was trying to hard to get it in and my coach was yelling for me to keep going, I went as hard as I could, but just couldn't get that last rep. That bites. :P
Anyway, I felt good during the wod, but after, not so good. The effects of this lingering cold thing kicked in and I felt kinda sick. I didn't really want to eat, just wanted to drink allot of liquid. I'm not sure if I will go in tomorrow or just rest. My heart says... go in! My brain says.. don't be a moron.
Until tomorrow.
