Need to get caught up on WOD's

>> Sunday, October 4, 2009

I took two days off last week from working out, which means I'm working out this weekend.

It actually works out better this way because one of those workouts included a bench press, which I hate doing when Michael's not around.

Saturday:
5 rounds, as many reps as possible
85# bench press
pull-ups (strict!)
85# back squat

I wanted to be persistent with my weights for both the back squat and bench press so I had to do 85#. I wasn't even sure if I could do that with the bench press! The last two times I did the bench press I only did 65# so this is a 20# improvement.

It was nice using a lower weight for back squats, I was able to really get deep into the squat and make sure my form was perfect each rep.

Here are my reps:
Round 1:
4,2,10
Round 2:
3,2,10
Round 3:
3,2,10
Round 4:
3,2,10
Round 5:
3,1,13

I'm extremely proud of my pull-ups because they were non-kipping, just strict. Normally I can only do one at a time, but I was able to do 2 before dropping.

Until tomorrow,
Kelsalynn
