So the last 3 days have been spent stressing about double unders which turned out to not be very helpful. They worked reasonably well Friday evening when I was able to do 10 single-double-single-double. They also worked OK Saturday morning when I was able to do 7 like that. Saturday afternoon they went to shit and didn't recover for Sunday afternoon when I was doing 16.2. So my 16.2 was roughly 50 seconds of toes to bar followed by 24 double unders in 3 minutes which is extremely annoying. I got some useful tips so maybe I'll do less badly tomorrow when I'll be trying this again...
This weeks WODs were fun to various degrees.
Wednesday was the deadlift (9@100kg even minutes) + pull up(9 on odd minutes) day (16 minutes in total). I was very happily surprised by me being able to do pullups for all the rounds although I had to break them up in multiple sets after a few rounds.
Thursday was a Tabata(20 seconds work, 10 seconds rest) day. 5 exercises, 8 rounds each, lowest round gives the score. I managed 10 pushups, 4 cals row, 6 slamball G2OH, 10 dips and 5 wallballs. I should've gone harder on rowing, but first round was kind of fail since getting into the rowing machine is slow....
Friday was the team day with a little of everything, but mostly body weight stuff with some balls and kettlebells thrown in. A hard but fun workout although I was missing barbells...
Saturday consisted of jumprope(I did singles), KB Swings and Cindy. Singles take a long time, but they were the rest portion of this workout. Swings at 32kg work, but they are heavy so I needed some rest between them. The part that I am most happy about is that pullups worked reasonably well for all 15 rounds. I think I am getting a hang of that.
This was the 3rd straight barbell-less workout and since I didn't reach the squat cleans for 16.2 Sunday was barbell-less for me as well:( Let's hope I reach squat cleans tomorrow or I'll be up to 5 days in a row without working with a barbell. That can't be good for me.
On Thursday I dropped by Bishops at Gustav Adolfs Torg on my way to see Deadpool (no, this is not and never will be a movie blog, but go see it, it's awesome!) and got to taste the very appropriately named Stone Delicious IPA. This beer manages to be both citrusy and hoppy creating a wonderful experience. Although more hops would make it even better.
