Sunday night burner – Man, do I feel good!

Written by "> | posted in Crossfit: My love/hate relationship | 0 Comments

Pretty quiet weekend all and all.  I’ve been busy trying to get everything in order for my new meal plan starting May 1st.  Friday night I had a quick cardio workout consisting of the following:

• 10 rounds x 3 minute skipping, with 30 seconds rest between rounds
• then, tabata 24″ box jumps with a 20lbs vest on — (score of 8 reps)

Saturday I golfed.  (shot a 99 – ouch!)

Sunday night was a good little burner.  The whole workout took me about 50 minutes.

• Warm-up:  6 rounds x 3 minutes of skipping, 30 seconds rest between rounds; followed by,
• Tabata double-unders (score was 20 – new personal best!)

• Workout was a variation the Crossfit.com WOD posted earlier this week, consisting of a whole lot of deadlifts.  I completed with the following rep progression:

• • 12 reps at 135 lbs
  • 10 reps at 185 lbs
  • 8 reps at 225 lbs
  • 6 reps at 275 lbs
  • 4 reps at 305 lbs
  • 2 reps at 385 lbs
  • 1 rep at 405 lbs
  • 1 rep at 405 lbs
  • 1 rep at 405 lbs
  • 1 rep at 405 lbs

At the end of the workout I was completely fried.  My back and hamstrings are aching and I feel GREAT!  Now to sleep…
