Sweat another bucket

Tonight's WOD was a double. First part was an AMRAP which called for 7 Thrusters (used 50lb. dumbbells), 9 push ups and 11 box jumps. Finished 10 full rounds in the 15 minutes.

Jumped on the bike for a 30 minute TT, finished 10.05 miles.

10K Time Trial

6.2 miles in 43:06 for a pace of 6:57. A pr for me by 1:05, although the previous best was outside and this was on a treadmill. Still overall, happy with the progress.

Joining the club

So this morning I went to my friend Elaine's gym to check out the swim club. I will join and swim 3 days a week with them. The coach there said there would be a ton of intervals and the only way to swim faster is to swim faster. Sounded familiar.

Tonight's workout was run 800m, 20 burpees 4x for time. Finished in 20:03. Was sweating buckets when I was done. I was glad with my paleo dinner of turkey burger, guacamole, asparagus and yams.

Bike

Stand 1 minute, Sit 1 minute, Rest 1 minute 6x. Finished 4.67 miles, felt strong on the standing portion.

Double

First part was 7 sets one rep max of front squats. Went 155, 185x2, 195x2, 200x2. Felt strong, but also felt that if I could support the weight a bit better, I could do more weight.

About 15 minutes later, ran a 5K for time and finished in 21:13.

Nice and quick

With work being so busy lately, I was thankful for a short one tonight.

5 bodyweight deadlifts (used 185lbs.), 7 push presses 1/2 body weight (used a 80lb. preset barbell), 9 box jumps (24"). Finished in 4:24.

Planning to join the team for the training weekend in June in Lake Placid.

Kettlebells and biking

Tonight was a double. First part was 40KB swings (used a 35lb. dumbbell), 10 pullups, 30 KB swings, 10 pull ups, 20 KB swings, 10 pull ups, 10 KB swing, 10 pull ups. Finished in 7:50. Pull ups were the hardest, especially after Fran.

Second WOD, done immediately after was a bike. 3 minutes on 1 minute off 5x, note distance. Enjoyed this and finished 5.9 miles.
