Skill Practice:
Practice 1-Legged Squats
So I finally found a good way to work my way up to a full squat with each leg. I'm now using the platforms we have for box jumps and step ups to work my way down lower and lower. Yesterday I was able to work my way down to being a foot off the ground and barely being able to push myself back up with each leg. Progress is being made!
1st WOD:
AMRAP 20 Min:
25 Kettlebell Swings @ 35lbs
Bike 1 Mile
30 Box Jumps @ 24''
Results - 3 Rounds + 7 Kettlebell Swings
Good to know that I can select the right box height this time! Progress was made on my box jumps as far as efficiency during the exercise and hammering out more reps at a time. Bike wasn't too bad, just wished it didn't take up so much time to go 1 mile. And of course progress made on kettlebell swings by adding about 10lbs of weight. This left me almost completely drenched and my legs were definitely killing going from the bike to box jumps.
2nd WOD:
5 Rounds for Time:
30 Wall Ball
Run 400 Meters
Time - 12:50
Does anyone else see why my legs are sore today? This was taxing and mentally tough for me. First, I didn't actually have a proper medicine ball with me where I was so I substitued with a 15lb barbell and 2.5lbs plates to mimic a 20lb medicince ball. So instead of wall balls I did thrusters. The transition from thrusters to running sucked. Legs were feeling it and lungs as well. Just one step closer to my goal!
Until...well later today, because this post was late,
Pat
