Training Day 10: Week 2 Complete

1st WOD:

Work up to Max Overhead Press

My Results - 135lbs

This I was surprised with. I never really measured my overhead press before and it was good to know I can get some 45 pounders on the bar. At the same time I'm not surpised due to the fact that it seems like every other day I'm doing some type of pressing motion in my workouts. All that pain led to a gain!

2nd WOD:

5 Rounds for Time of:
Row 500 Meters
3 Towel Pull Ups

My Time - 12:37

So of course the row is going to take a while( a while being 2 minutes) to go 500 meters, so yeah that took up some time. But really not that bad considering the towel pullups were short. Just to let you all know, the towel pull ups are supposed to be the best substitution for rope climbing. We do have ropes at the gym I work at, but not for climbing on the ceiling necessarily. And to be more specific, the pull ups were in a see-saw manner so as to mimic going hand over hand. I thought it would be much harder than it was so next time I'm just going to go ahead and bump the reps working up to 15 each side. Mainly because of CrossFit's 15 foot ropes. It was a great week of training and I feel great going into the weekend. Can't wait for next week where I start my 3-a-day workouts!

Tomorrow I'll post on my nutrition and recovery! Later!
