level 2

up till now, i've been going to the level 1 class on the weekdays (except for when i go on thurs/fri, when level 1 and 2 are combined). today was my first day going to the level 2 class. this means that class now starts at 6am instead of 630am and that more difficult workouts won't be scaled down.

warmed up with a 4 round tibata of double unders and KB swings (30 lbs). I'm getting better at DUs. I like it

skill ---
Turkish Getups (30lbs)
4x3

Note: my left side is clearly weaker

metcon --
10 min AMRAP:
10 KB swings (53lbs - i think 1.5 poods) (Rx was 70 or 75)
10 Front Squats (95 lbs) (Rx was 115)

rounds: 5 rounds + 10KB Swings + 5 front squats

notes: we did some KB swing skill work before the wod, and it made a HUGE difference. I was bending my knees way too much (as was 90% of the class), and turning alot of the downward swing into a squat. now i lean forward much more and use my hips rather than my hips + glutes. big difference.

  1. Good stuff. Hip drive is the answer to all of life's questions. Including those arising in the bedroom.
