Sectional WOD #2

The Sectional WOD #3 was announced and it's a little shorter in duration and involves more power.  I tend to like these ones more, but that may be because I just hate 15+ min ones.  We will see how I stack up when the rest of the world does this one.

Here is the Sectional WOD #2 video.  I fast forward in the middle because the video would be a little long otherwise.  All the reps were legit, especially since they were so slow, no cheating the standards here.  I have been working on quickness on box jumps since this workout.  Things like depth jumps and bounding over hurdles, these will get better.

Recovery Day


There's something so tranquil about the ocean.  I couldn't ask for a better rest day in 80 degree weather at the beach.  Afterward my girlfriend and I walked around watching everyone play in the sun and ate dinner on the water at sunset.  Ready to go back to work!

Weekend part 2

I will post the video of the Sectional Wod #2 early this week, so you can see how slow my box jumps really are.  In the meantime here is the 2nd workout I did over the weekend.  Its good to get some more power involved after these lighter based wods.

Just took an ice bath, and now I'm heading over to the beach to enjoy this beautiful weather and get some Vitamin D.  This is will be a good recovery day.

Weekend

I did the Sectionals WOD #2 during the middle of the week, and learned a lot.  Not as good as I would have liked but I'm starting to feel better during these brutal metcons.  First my conditioning is still not where it should be.  Second pushups were the easiest part of it. The hardest was the leg burn from the deadlift box jump combo.  Lastly I am slow right now, I have no pop or quickness on the box jumps.  I will be working on all these.

I will have a lot of good workouts coming up so I will try to keep this blog updated with the wods and my thoughts.  They will be more Crossfit style metcon burners.  It is going to get fun the next couple months!

Here is a wod I did today:

4 rope climbs
15 squat cleans 155lb
4 rope climbs
12 squat cleans
