Strength / Stretching (CrossFit) 45:00 [3]
slept:8.0 weight:128lbs shoes: Adidas Supernova Sequence 2
- Dynamic stretching to warm up.
- More warm-up -- kettlebell swings (15# - 25# - 35# x 10 each) and ball slams (20# - 30# x 10 each).
- CrossFit Games Weekly WOD #2: as many rounds as possible in 15 minutes -- deadlift x 9 / push-ups x 12 / box-jumps x 15. Women's prescribed weight on the deadlift was 100# (155# for men); box jump height was 20" (24" for men). On the push-ups, we were required to lift our hands at the bottom of each rep (to prove our chest was touching the ground).
Even after two+ years of CrossFit workouts, I still really suck at push-ups -- especially when there are strict range-of-motion requirements like this -- so I was afraid I'd get maybe just one round. But, I was able to complete four rounds plus most of a fifth round (I was six box jumps short of completing round #5 when the clock stopped...).
My super-star partner Tanya completed eight rounds plus some extra reps of a ninth round. The über-super-star of the gym, Leah, completed 11 rounds. WOW!
