Tough work out Joey, or just hanging out (again literally)

Tough workout, but who would know by that smile? She claims she thought she might puke, hence hanging her head out

Sat, 4/27 -- Level 1 CrossFit Trainer Cert class

Warmup/WOD:
























Ok, well looking at my last RX Fran time, I've improved by approx 1.5min! That's kind of a big deal, even if the last time I did this wod RX was over a year ago. Stupid thrusters; I still have to really pause during the sets. On the 2nd set though, I think I was working toward 18 when I realized my booboo. Oh well...

Enjoy some vids of the elites doing some work during their lunch hour!

 

 

Me with the elite CF folks:  (L to R) Chris Spealler, Chase Ingraham, Sarah, John Main, Kristin, Gale

Warmup/Strength/WOD:

Ok, so this is one of those wods that simply SUCKS. You look at it and think (like I did), that looks kinda fun! But then approx into the 2nd round you have major 2nd thoughts about liking it. By the 3rd round you're already dying and wondering how on earth you're going to make it the whole 5 rounds. Round 4 the real challenge of mental battle begins as your body screams for you to stop because your arms won't work on the wall balls and your legs feel so heavy they barely move. It's sad when the run is the resting point. Round 5's goal changes to simply doing 1-2 reps of the movements just so you can finish. Screw the time. I just have to finish!! And then you do. And you feel your performance was the worst ever. But then you look at your last Kelly time and realize, oh, that was about the same (like me except maybe a handful of seconds slower) or you see that you actually finished better than last time. There's somewhat of a little congratulatory "hooray I'm still alive" aspect to it. It didn't compensate for me though, because I haven't felt that level of suck in a wod in quite a while. Must mean we realize why it's a Girl WOD! It takes some elitish athletes 20+ minutes to do this, so finishing in about a half-hour isn't too shabby.  Just gotta remember that.... 


Everyone is working a variety of box jumps or wall balls!
