HOLY CRAP!?! Has it really been a year since the last fit test?! I guess so!

I will spare you the “I’m so tired” and “I didn’t feel like working out” spiel as you have seen it like 234702348023748 times already… Today’s WOD went like this:

Warm up

  • 30 squat snatches – whatever weight you wanted. I started with the bar then worked my way up to 125#. My squat snatches are getting A LOT better.
  • Stretches, during which time a wasp stung my hand. What!?
  • 100 double unders – took about 2:30. Pretty sure that’s a PR.

WOD – Fit Test

  • 400m time trial
  • 1 minute of push ups
  • 1 minute of sit ups
  • Tabata Squats
  • 1 minute of pull ups

My numbers this time were:

  • 400m run: 1:35, previously 1:42
  • Push ups: 44, previously 40
  • Sit ups: 36, previously 31
  • Tabata squats: 135, previously 104
  • Pull Ups: 20

I ran really hard on the 400, so I’m pretty happy with that. I think I can probably do a lot better on the pull ups and push ups. My sit ups… well, I have made peace with them. They are what they are…

I was feeling like getting a small WOD in so I decided to do this at home.

100 Double Unders for time

Tabata Sprint

It took me 5:42 to do the double unders. They started out well at first, but by the end, I was doing them one at a time. The sprints felt really good for the first 2 rounds, then got progressively slower and harder.

Back at CrossFit CP, we did:

21 – 15 – 9

  • Medicine Ball Clean (20lb)
  • Pull Up
  • Wall Ball (20lb)
  • Mountain Climbers (42 – 30 – 18)

We followed up with a Tabata Row.

I finished the first WOD in 14:56 and got 810m on the row.

What went well?

The med ball cleans, the wall balls, and the mountain climbers all went off without a hitch.

What needs improvement?

PULL UPS!!! Argh!!! Ever since I stopped doing them often a few months ago, I am having problems getting more than 2-3 at a time. I need to get that swing back.

Overall feel.

Pretty good. My energy level was pretty constant throughout this WOD. I would like to think that there were areas in which I could have pushed harder, but still, I think I did pretty well. Had I had my pull ups from 3 months ago, I probably would have had a much better time. Lots of time was burned on doing them one and two at a time.
