Weekly Workout Recap

Hello Friends. There is no graceful way to transition from yesterdays post back to “normal”. I spent extra time yesterday with Little Dreamer. Watching her play with her hair, helping her blow dry it after bath time, and spending some quality cuddle time together. I had some long papers to write for school, but somehow it just didn’t seem to matter as much.

Since I missed our weekly workout recap yesterday I’ve got it for you today. I know you’re dying to see my workouts.

Monday 12/10 – CrossFit

PreWOD
3 x 3 strict press
WOD
3 rounds for time of:
400 meter row
15 toes to bar
20 power/muscle/squat snatch
RX 75/55, RX++ 95/65
Post WOD
Tabata Slammers 10/20/30/40/50

Figures after Saturday’s Snatch Fest there would be snatches in the WOD. Add in the toes to bar and you have a perfect recipe for tears. Awesome.

Tuesday 12/11 – CrossFit

70%-75% of 1 RM

10 power cleans 95/65

-With the rips on my hands gripping the bar was tough. I did well with the strength but only got through 2 rounds of the WOD. At least I looked cute in my WODink long sleeve tshirt.

Wednesday 12/12/12!! – Run 1.75 miles

I found this compression jacket on clearance at Old Navy. It matches perfectly with my neon SweatyBands. By the way, I have a coupon code for 5% off! Go get some, these are awesome!

Thursday 12/13- CrossFit

So- I set my alarm. It went off. I turned it off instead of pushing snooze. I woke up at 4:55 and made it to CrossFit by 5:10. Awesome.

5 power cleans 135/95
10 lateral bar hops
5 push press 135/95
10 pull ups
Post WOD
Bar holds

I totally felt strong during the deadlifts. Check out how hardcore I am. haha. That was 165 I think… My max is 200. Also- I hate lateral bar hops, but not nearly as much as bar facing burpees. Yuck.

And guess what came in the mail on Friday afternoon? My Polar Heart Rate Monitor! I cannot tell you how excited I was. Seriously. I have always wondered exactly what kind of burn I get while doing CrossFit. Now I’ll know!

Saturday 12/15- CrossFit

TGU’s 5 x 3 each arm AHAP
WOD
Partner WOD
AMRAP for 20 min of:
250 meter row
15 kb ground to overhead 53/35
10 box jumps
Only one partner works at a time

I used to hate Partner WODs. Now I love them. Lisa has been my partner the last few times. We are good partners, power to the shorties! We did this work out RX (as prescribed) and it burned so good. Check out that Calorie Burn!!! I also tried the Sunwarrior Protein sample that came in my Bulu Box. I liked it! I also wore my favorite WODlove tank… It says “Your Mom didn’t warn you about these Girls” and lists the girl workout names on the back. LOVE.

Sunday- Rest Day

You notice I only went running once. Ooops. Not sure my 40 mile goal is going to happen. I’ve been having issues with my tailor’s bunion. Any tips on dealing with that? It freaking hurts, especially when I run.
