Rest day for me.
expecting some great run clinics when you get back Nicole!
52/m/190
My rest day was yesterday. After a rest day I always expect to feel refreshed and juiced up about hitting the gym. Instead, I woke up feeling sore everywhere. The whole idea of working out seemed miserable. Every movement felt labored when putting on my clothes. I asked myself why I do this, when laying in bed feels so good. But I made it to the gym, stepped out of my car, walked inside, began spinning my arms, and the next thing you know, I was sweating my ass off doing…
…CFWUx3…
…and the WOD: Five rounds of Deadlift 3reps, Handstand push-ups max reps
I did only 135lb. deadlifts because I wanted to test the healing of my back strain that occurred 2 weeks ago. I subbed 75lb. barbell shoulder press for handstand push-ups.
I did 5 rounds 3×135lb. deadlift and 75lb. shoulder press 7,7,7,7,6 reps
I did back squats
10×75lb.
10×95lb.
5×105lb.
5×115lb.
I did OHS
10×45lb.
10×45lb.
Did Shoulder press with 15lb. dumbbells
21×15 lb. dumbbells
I ran 1 mile on treadmill at 0% incline.
It seems like my back tolerated the workout well. My mental attitude is upbeat. Crossfit sometimes feels like a daily gauntlet that I must pass through to find and feel like myself.
Is Nicole going to a RUNNING Cert.?
Taking an unwanted rest day. Have work-related function I can’t get out of. Oh well, will be rested up for a big date I’m sure Breck will have for us Friday.
I hope to make it back on Saturday morning. Had some stuff come up with work. Gotta pull another all nighter tonight…ugh.
Will do Danny, will do!!
