A little under the weather today...

Barbell complex warmup

12 minutes to find 3rm for backsquat
205# (recall that in February my 3rm was an air squat...)

30 minute brutal metcon including:
running, double unders, burpees, 115# shoulder to overhead, box jumps, more dubs, more running, front squats...


@Tim, a body weight OHS is really something. I'm trying and failing to imagine the cross fitter who lapped you on that metcon... And yes being able to dump the weights is a big deal, especially when you go heavy.

Re: The Shed 'O Pain
 

@Tim, I'm sorry, I can't do the shed tomorrow. I've got a full day of furniture moving on the schedule for tomorrow. I think there should be a WOD for moving furniture, maybe call it Gladys. I am planning to escape for a few minutes in the morning to do a yoga class in downtown Willoughby taught by Marque and Sarah Gereaux (mark is previous manager at Kendall).

Olympic Lifting, walking, watching Blue Angels practice.
It was stinking hot for all three of these activities.

Both patellar tendons are extremely sore.
Need to find a way to not use my knees for 5-7 days...

Swimming? Pushups? Pullups? KBS? Situps? Planks?

Oh, okay, there's plenty of ways to continue the torture while resting my knees.

Was going to do New London 5k tomorrow morning, but have decided to swim instead (see note about excrutiatingly sore patellar tendons).

Am using bags of frozen vegetables as ice packs.
Paleo ice packs!

Re: The Shed 'O Pain
 

Worked out with Eric at the high school weight room. I needed the extra motivation to get through this wod.

"The Seven"

Seven rounds for time of:
7 Handstand push-ups
135 pound Thruster, 7 reps (I used two 35# dumbbells) These were brutal!
7 Knees to elbows
245 pound Deadlift, 7 reps (I used 185# on a hex bar. I want a hex bar!)
7 Burpees
7 Kettlebell swings, 2 pood (I used a 60# dumbbell)
7 Pull-ups
40:25-I wanted to break 40 minutes. I did the first round in a little over 3 minutes. I then crashed. Very hard mental effort. I don't think these long brutal met cons are particularly healthy, but done once in awhile are a great tool for teaching perseverance.
Eric did the wod as rx'd in 28 something. :notworth:
