Thursday....my body is still feeling Wednesday...and Monday...

Today was a hard day mentally. I needed a good workout but my body is still sore from yesterdays MAX Deadlift and my body is tired from getting back at it this week.

This is what was picked for today's workout...

Another "Hopper Deck" Thursday and a new workout we havent done before. I really like this style of workout and think we will add more of this type in the coming weeks. The minute of rest is really crucial for being able to keep the intensity high on all rounds. It is that level of intensity that is the key to gains in your all round level of fitness. Go as hard as you can for that 3 minutes and leave it all out there!!

WOD

3 Burpees

6 Sumo Deadlift High Pulls 95 lbs / 65 lbs

9 Box Jumps

As many rounds as possible in 3 minutes.

Rest 1 minute.

3 Burpees

6 Thrusters 95 lbs / 65 lbs

9 Box Jumps

As many rounds as possible in 3 minutes.

Rest 1 minute.

Repeat 2 times

Well - THAT hurt. I did it with 55lbs. I can tell the two weeks off have put me back with my METCON workouts.

I managed the following rounds each set: 3, 2,2,1.2/3 (and 6 box jumps)

That was enough for me.

I had my shin looked at by Dr. Steve today and it is really sore. I thought about running the 8K tonight but between my leg being as sore as it is and my back muscles SCREAMING at me I felt it was best to just go listen to the talk today.

Maybe tomorrow I will take the day off or try a run or try crossfit or maybe both.

Let's hope tomorrow isn't as mentally taxing.
