monday and tuesday

today's wod:
was feeling really good pre-wod and got pumped for some deadlifts.  i don't have enough weights/plates at home to do my one rep max for deadlift so i decided to do max reps for seven sets, instead, @ the max weights I do have, which is 235#.

so a 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 wod turned into max reps for seven sets.

at 235 lbs, reps looked like this: 7, 9, 8, 6, 6, 5, 6.  very curious what i could put up for a one rep max.

drank a protein shake, had a chicken breast, green beans and half a potato with water.  really trying to cut down on the amount of diet coke/artificial sweetener i ingest.  been taking my coffee black with no sweetener or milk, which i kinda like bc i can taste the coffee.

Yesterday's wod:
run 800 meters
10 rounds of the couplet:
handstand pushups, 10 reps
one legged squats, 10 reps
run 800 meters

the run was down my block and back - approx. .35 miles instead of half a mile.  handstands scaled on a box. squats, did lunges instead, quads were still sore from the 250 reps of squats i did on thursday night.

time: 19 minutes, i'm not loving these half mile buy ins and half mile cash outs that crossfit has done a ton of lately on the mainsite.  could've pushed the intensity a lot more.  especially on the couplet.  i blame my lack of intensity on a shitty day at work.  overall though, was pleased i got a workout in for the day when i wasn't feeling my best.  in the past, would've just said fuck it.

  1. Good deadlifts. I'd hate to be your low back/hamstrings right now.

    I'd guess your 1RM is around 315.
