Today was a fun WOD ... and exposed my weaknesses in my snatch. I maxed out @ 125# ... my previous best was 4x85# ... which then I attempted a 105# and failed miserably.
We also had a buy in (warmup) ... It was supposed to be 3 tries at Double Unders (jump rope under your feet 2 times before you land). I can't do any long term jumping because of my feet so I did max calories in a 1min row. My previous best was 11 calories in 1min. Today I hit 23 calories in 1min. I'm stoked with that. That means I'm putting out more then 100% more power in 1min then I previously could back on January 15th. That's REALLY going to help my "Fight Gone Bad" score.
Today, we had a buy out (cool down) too. 1 attempt at doing as many pull-ups as you can. I've been avoiding doing any pull-ups basically because I didn't want to look like an idiot. About a month ago, when no one was looking, I did 1 pull-up using the black band and I was happy with that. Today I was able to do 3 using the black band. Adam made me add another band (green band) which then "felt" too easy. Jordan said if it was too easy then keep going. I was able to get 19 more, so 22 total. I thought my arms would be wrecked today but they aren't too bad.
Yesterday was very encouraging for me. Can't wait to get back into the gym tonight.
