3 rnds

10 backsquats 115#
20 dumbbell push presses 25#/20#
40 slamballs

Time 16:04

Like this wod. Slamballs were fun and used my muscles in a completely different way. Will be interesting to see where the soreness is tomorrow, if any. Packing up some supplies to take with on my long weekend. I always have the best intentions for working out when I am out of town and then it never happens. We'll see if this weekend is any different. Completely excited to get my favorite veggie sushi rolls, see one of my best friends and relax with my family. Love, love, love that our Crossfit gym owner, Brian, is getting in different workout equipment like the slamballs!

It doesn't matter how many times you fail. It doesn't matter how many times you almost get it right. No one is going to know or care about your failures, and neither should you. All you have to do is learn from them and those around you because . . . All that matters in business is that you get it right once. Then everyone can tell you how lucky you are.

Hate, Hate, HATE treadmills!

3 rnds

400m run
15 squat snatches 45#
9 handstand push ups -banded

Time 19:06

Other than the fact that the treadmill is satan's evil sister-in-law, the wod was fun. It is just way to cold to go running outside here now, and I like running outside in the winter. The squat snatches were good and bad on form. Weight could have been heavier if my form was more consistent.

Gosh, I missed this!

Backsquats
3-3-3-3-3

115-135-145-155-165

Felt great to do backsquats again, but also off. Think that my body forgot how to do it's job. The third rep of the last rounds felt heavier than usual, with stiff legs.

Monday, February 28th

7 rounds
10 calorie row
10 burpees
10 wall balls 14#

time 15:00 for 4 rnds

Started tasting blood in my throat during rnd 4 and that is never a good sign for me. Voice turned to crap and I coughed for about two hours. Still waiting for my ENT appt. this month.

Angie who?

20 pieces of Angie (20 rnds)
5 pullups
5 pushups
5 situps
5 squats

My time was beyond awful on this otherwise nice wod. I wasn't dying for breath or anything like that, just no energy. Must still be recovering. Wod was rx with one little alteration. My callous started to rip on round 15, so instead of pullups, I opted to sub slamballs. They are new for our gym and I hadn't used them yet. Think that they will be pretty fun when I have some oompf in my step.

Day two wod

horrible hundred
25 deadlifts
25 squat clean n jerk
25 thrusters
25 overhead squats

time 16:04

I was not even close to rx weights this time. The reduced weights were heavy enough today. I will make a comeback, albeit slowly, but it will happen. Very happy to say that Brian gave me kudos on my squat clean n jerks, a first for me. In general, my cleans suck. Maybe it was due to the fact that my muscles are still recovering and I had to focus more to make it happen???? Regardless, a big smile:-)
