Sunday's WOD

>> Sunday, May 17, 2009

We just got back from the gym and had a kick butt workout.

No name, just a WOD (workout of the day) from CrossFit.

3 rounds of:
100 feet walking lunges
20 2ft box jumps
20 pull-ups (assisted level 9)

My time was 10:59.

The walking lunges and box jumps would tire me out cardio-wise, but the pull-ups were a killer. It was the first time I've done a WOD on level 9 assist so I'm really pumped about that. Level 9 assist means I got assistance on 46 pounds. Since I weigh 135 pounds-ish, this means I able to pull-up 66% of my weight, if I did the math right. It's a long way from doing one pull-up without any assistance, but I know it's a huge improvement from where I was so I know I'll get there. When I first started doing pull-ups, I was on level 18 assistance (the higher the worse b/c it means you require MORE assistance). Big difference...

So, 60 pull-ups on level 9 was really fricken tough. The last round I could only do 2-3 pull-ups at a time without stopping, shaking my arms, then doing a couple more.

Now we're heading to the library, then grocery shopping...

Until tomorrow,
