WOD 10/3/2011

Let me preface this by saying this one really, really sucked. Looked deceptively simple on paper, but it was a ball buster. Particularly hard for me because, well, I've been pretty much failing at getting in 3 times a week workouts consistently, and its showing in my results. Apparently, its also showing in my riding (see previous posts, lol). I think its been at least a good two months since I've been able to string together multiple weeks of consistent workouts. So, new resolution for October is to do the entire month back at my three times a week. If this means going to the early morning class, that is what I'm going to do. Because it really irks me to be getting so fatigued in these longer/harder WOD's, for no reason other than my endurance isn't what it should be, due to my own laziness.

Without further ado, the WOD:

20 calorie row
30 burpees
40 DB ground to OH (either a clean to a push press, or a weird kind of hybrid of a snatch/kettlebell swing. 25 lb DB's was women's RX)
50 toes to bar (I did KTE)
100 ft lunges with 45 lb plate (supposed to go OH, but at that point I didn't even try. I was lucky I could hold that thing to my chest)

Completed in 17 minutes. Longer than I wanted, but still sub 20 minutes. I've been using the 25lb DB's for all WODs lately, but last night they just felt especially heavy. I could only do 5 reps at a time, which is not good. At one point I was even tempted to ask to grab the 15lbs, but made the decision to suffer through because the 15lbs would have just been way too easy.

All in all, glad I did it, but I'm definitely feeling the pain today.
