Keepin it nice and clean....

Today's WOD

5 rounds for time
10 95# Hang Clean (Women's weight)
20 Ring Dips

I wasn't about to be all She-ra today. Whenever I get clutsy, I use my alter ego name, Mrs. Kanuckles. Last night, Mrs. Kanuckles stepped down out of her laundry room with a pile of clothes and her ankle just came out from under her.
She practically ended up on the ground. She is a dumb ass, and needs lessons in walking straight. Of course the first thing that came to mind was... "Will Mrs. Kanuckles be able to crossfit tomorrow...??"

I iced it for over and hour last night and at work twice today for about 30 minutes each time.
I was able to walk on it but couldnt possibly run or anything.. it pretty much just hurt when it bent as if walking.

So, I went in for todays wod. I could have probably did 75pnds, but I decided on 65 due to my ankle. I did band assisted ring dips. I wanted to do them all and make them hard as I am training to be able to do them unassisted within a month.

I worked out with Keri today. She did 55pnd with jumping ring dips. She finished probably a whole round ahead of me. She is awsome to workout with because she has great metcon stamina. I was dying on the assisted ring dips. My arms would dip until failure and I had to stop, shake em out then do another 2-3 dips. So it took awhile. I didn't seem to mind, cause I knew I was doing 100 dips at the end, and it will really help me to be able to do them.

Time finished: 11:07

I would have loved to work through the pain of the dips, but I just couldnt work through the failure. My arms were so rock hard after this wod, I felt like She-ra princess of power.

Afterward, I decided to practice my deadlifts. I saw a bar with 135 on it. I did 10 deadlifts at tat weight. Then I thought, well lets see how high I can go.
I went up to 155 .. I was able to do 3 of them.
Then I put on 165, I did 2 of them.
I didn't go any higher cause I was about to fail at 165 and had already burned myself out doing so many at 135 and 155. I think I might have maxed at 185. I want to try again this weekend.

I'm sitting here icing my foot right now, hitting refresh on the HQ site.
