Unexpected Post Turkey WOD


Organizing a WOD @ CrossFit St. George 3-2-1 GO!


Today I unexpectedly decided to workout. Maybe its just the post thanksgiving guilt weighing on my mind or I am just a glutton for punishment. Either way here it goes...

6 Rounds @ CrossFit St. George for time:

500m Row
400m Run

Finished in 31:20...not killer by any means.

Motor Development Tip of The Day:

Jump to develop power...lift to develop strength

Monday Training Tester



I started the series at 2:00pm...

Workout 1:For power ratio:
Row 800 m
My Ratio was 1.7

rest 5 min

Workout 2:7 sets (95#/60#) for time;
Power Snatch x 1
Snatch Balance x 1
OHS x 1
Hang Snatch x 1
My finish time was 1:48

rest 5 min

Workout 3:As many rounds (total reps) in 3 minutes;
3 chest to bar chin ups unbroken
3 push up burpees
My Total Reps were 36 (I felt gassed, insufficient morning meals.)

3.5 hour rest

6:00pm- Workout 4:For time
50 walking lunges
20 clean and jerk - 135#/95#
30 dips
25 wall balls - 20#/14# to 10ft
30 GHD Sit Ups
30 KBS - 1.5pd/1pd
75 double unders
My Time was 15:18

I am going to really focus on pre and post meal plans in more detail by scheduling meals to the hour before wods...Overall I felt good with the series of challenges my stamina has definatly improved in alot but I could tell in the 3rd wod that I didn't eat enough (paleo kit 318 @ 11am).
Snatch Complex felt the easiest -- Workout 4 felt good; Lunges were consistant, clean and jerk were broken more than I wanted but very short breaks kept it movein--Dips slowed me down uurgh!!--Wallball shots 3 breaks--GHD situps 3 breaks--KBS unbroken felt relitivly easy--Double Unders felt good finished those around 75-90sec....

Alright time to recover ...more conditioning to do if I want to be a contender!!

TAKING ACTION

"You cannot move forward from some idealized point in the future that has not yet arrived.If you are to move forward, you must do it from where you are now.Though it may not be perfect, it is plenty to get you going.Wishing for more, or feeling resentment because you don't have more, will only waste your precious time.Although there is no guarantee that your actions will be effective, one thing that is certain is that nothing will happen if you take no action at all. "

I pulled this off OPT site...I believe this is a good read for anyone, and maybe a good reminder before you start racing through your day. One thing I am coming to understand is... perfection will never be good enough and anything guaranteed is BS . Trust yourself, stay true to yourself and always carry a gallon of water!
