Training Day 6

1st WOD:

5 Rounds for Time of:
Bike 1 Mile
25 Push Ups

My Time - 23:58

So like last time, the bike really took some time to go that 1 mile. I bumped it up to level 12 this time to further my distance with each pedal but it still took a few minutes. My legs were also pretty fatigued after a few rounds. I found out very quickly with this workout and my previous workout with burpees that my chest presses fatigue very quickly. First round was fine but the remaining rounds really were tiring with push ups. I described it with one of my coworkers and we both agreed that pushups never get easier, you're able to do more but they suck just as much.

2nd WOD:

AMRAP in 20 Minutes of:
25 Clean and Presses @ 50lbs
50 Squats
Row 500 Meters

My Results - 3 Rounds + 2 Clean and Presses

I think each of these exercises took a little while for me to complete. For the clean and presses I took it all the way down past my knee as CrossFitters do. The squats were easy but it was hard for me to speed up my pace, and rowing 500 meters took some energy out of me and it's an awful feeling waiting for that computer to register and catch up to how far you've rowed.

I felt like I could have went a little bit harder today though in the 2nd WOD. I felt like I could have pushed through exercises and rested after instead of during. A goal for next time I suppose. However as far as recovery between workouts went today - PHENOMENAL! Chocolate milk really helped today immediately after both workouts.

Until tomorrow,

Pat
