It always seems to be pretty muggy for CrossFit on Tuesday and today was no exception. I sure was tired walking into the box today. I had very poor sleep last night so I was dragging. I am proud of myself for even getting myself there tonight.
Posted workout for Tuesday, June 24th:
Warm-Up:
Jump Rope 3 x :45 on/:15 rest (Translation: jump rope for 3 minutes, sets of 45 seconds, with 15 seconds of rest between each set).
What I did: Same. My fatigue really showed as I was only stumbling through about 5 jumps at a time before screwing up. On Friday I was stringing together 20 at a time, but tonight it was a real struggle.
Stretching:
Hip Mobility Complex
Kicks (front, back, side)
Super Front Rack (band or dowel)
Banded Overhead
What I did: Same.
Barbell Warm-Up, led by coach:
10 Deadlifts
10 Hang Power Cleans
10 Lunge Steps (5 per side)
10 Front Squats
10 Squat Cleans
What I did: Same, except I only did a couple of the Squat Cleans. I can't really do them (at least with the 35lb barbell) very well yet and Coach Jen wanted me to work on my Power Cleans.
Performance / WOD:
A. Clean Complex 12:00 to build to a heavy set of 1 Squat Clean + 1 Hang Squat Clean + 1 TnG (touch-n-go) Squat Clean
What I did: Hang Power Cleans at 55lbs. I was really feeling it tonight, so I found it a struggle just to do it right.
B. 4 Rounds for Time:
28 Double-Unders (84 Singles)
14 Push-Ups
7 Power Cleans (women 95lbs)
What I did: 4 Rounds of 28 jump rope singles (again, I was really feeling my fatigue, I had a bit of trouble busting them out without screwing it up), 14 Push-Ups from a box, 7 Power Cleans at 55lbs.
My time for the above was 9:47.
C. Cash Out: Airdyne (bike) 5 x :20 max effort, rest 2:00 between (Translation: Sprint all out on the Airdyne Bike for 20 seconds, rest for 2 minutes. Do this 5 times).
What I did: Same.
I'm really glad that I went tonight and I was very glad when it was over! Some of these "rounds for time" WODs, I get to the second set of intervals and think to myself, 'how am I going to get through ALL of them???' But I manage it somehow. I guess there is a lesson there somehow.
