Hit the gym bright and early this morning... well early anyway. There was no electricity at the CrossFit box!
Rather than call it off like a bunch of wimps though, we decided to work out in the dark. Here's what we did:
Warm Up:
1 Minute Battle Ropes
1 Length of Walking Lunges
10 Burpees
2 Minute Row
Skill:
Double Unders!
1 Minute Ghost Double Unders
2 Minutes Single Unders
1 Minute Ghost Double Unders
2 Minutes Double Unders
I didn't manage to do any, but I feel like I have a better shot at it now that I know the technique.
WOD:
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
Squat
Ring Row
Dumbbell Push Press (I only used 7.5lb weights, cause I am a failure today)
Knees to Elbows
I finished last, at 12:53.
Finisher:
50 Wall Balls with the 6lb ball.
(This nearly did me in, I wanted to vomit.)
Despite feeling like the finisher nearly finished me, I know I could have pushed myself harder during today's workout. I'm kinda grumpy at myself for walking out of the gym in such good condition. As a result, I'm going to do some more jump rope tonight and some ab work. That brings us to today's Reason: Because I know I can do it.
At work today, I had dance music on all afternoon, and I feel frisky, and want to get up and move! Also kept better track of my food intake today, since I've been slacking on it. Overall, despite LIFE being a pain today, I still feel pretty good. That's the miracle of endorphins I guess!
