Thrusters

Back to the swing of things after the enjoyable and restful weekend.

I did go to the gym on both Saturday and Sunday, but I didn't work out. Instead, I kept time for Michael and "coached" him through his workouts. It was weird standing there in jeans and a shirt!

I slept better last night than I have in a long time. I'm hoping my new routine has settled in and I'll start to feel more energized shortly.

This morning's WOD called for 7, 1-rep max of thrusters.

I love thrusters. You have to use your legs and upper body. To me, the motion of a thruster feels natural so it makes it more enjoyable. But man, once I add some weight, it gets tough (in a good way!).

Here's how I did:
75
80
85
90
95
100
105

This is a new max for me by 10 pounds! The last time I did 7, 1-rep maxes of a thruster, about 6 weeks ago, my max was only 95 pounds! Wahoo!

Congrats to Jen who completed her triathlon this weekend in under 3 hours! And Congrats to Stacy who completed her FIRST TRIATHLON ever! You guys ROCK!
