February saw a review and practice of olympic lifts. I also added an extra day of running every week, in preperation of the 15K I ran (race report, coming right up).
Overall, a good month of steady workouts. It was an up and down month of eating. Work was a bit nutty which often translates into stress eating for me. Just getting out of that rut, and feeling much better.
At the end of the month I also added a yoga class to my repetoire (which has since replaced my morning of running). I’m very new to it, but I like it. Did you know you can sweat doing yoga? And I’m not talking hot yoga. More on that later.
AKA 13.3 I assumed I would not get through the Double Unders, so I didn’t get a pull-up bar set up (I need a box to reach the bar, as well as a band to perform more than one pull-up). I might have had a better score had I been prepared. Wonder if I’ll remember that next time it comes around.
Is it me, or did we do a lot of DUs this month? I’m working on the skill. Not as good as Rina or Amanda, but can string more than 5 in a row a few times, then just do a few at a time. All in the timing.
More Double Under! Are you keeping track?
Sprints on the erg, at a 25 SPM or less. Right up my alley.
No DUs, but singles.
Rowing for calories a crossfit thing, no? It would seem to be the only reason why I might tamper with the damper. Anyway, my mantra in times like these is, you can do anything for 60 seconds. Just get it done.
Fun.
New handwriting. New coach. Same burpees.
Wendler returns. This quarter I’ll be doing Bench Press, Press and Deadlift. These are the 1RMs I’m working with: Bench Press: 85 Press: 80 DL: 165 Oh, the workout happened, too. Yay box jumps.
