Crossfit, Week 2 Day 4 (recap)

Yesterday was brutal.

50 double unders
40 weighted lunges 45/25 (20 each leg)30 HR push ups 20 KB snatch (10 each arm) 53/35 10 Deadlifts 225/155



So here is what I did
Round 1
150 Single Jump Ropes
40 Weighted Lunges 25#
30 HR Push-ups (on knees past no. 5)
20 KB Snatch (26#)
10 Deadlifts 135

So Round 1.  Jump rope took a while but nothing agonizing, but the weighted lunges were brutal.  My arms and shoulders where the worst trying to hold the 25# plate above my head, but even just regular lunges would have been hard I bet.  30 HR Pushups I could only get 5 regular in before I couldn't get off the ground, so the rest were on my knees.  KB Snatch was actually uneventful, but I went too heavy on the Deadlifts and I was having issues with my form so I kept trying to fix it with the coach and do the exercise with was hard.

Round 2.
As I'm starting my jump Rope for round 2, about 20-30 jumps in the two people in my group (it was the late class so just the 3 of us) finished at about 18 minutes.  That meant this whole 2nd round was just me against the world (not that I was keeping up against them anyways).
Coach had me do non-weighted lunges and those were tough but not all 40, Then he had me switch to just regular knee push-ups which I had to break into sets of 3-5 but got those.  Instead of KB Snatches I went to KB hip swings, and the Deadlift was lowered 40# between sets and I still struggled with my form while lowering the bar.  My form going up is perfect, but lowering it I want to bend my back to soon.  I think it stems from being told never to lean over without bending your knees.  It will take some work.

Today's workout is 'Nancy' for time.  I am so sore, but I feel like I need to go.  I feel like listening to the voice inside is just being soft.  But dear god everything hurts.

Only one way to go from here.
