Metcon

Early afternoon


Metcon
100 Double Unders then
4 Rounds:
10 Thrusters (95#)
20 KB Swings (53#)
30 Situps


13:59

Late afternoon

Went for a short run with John W. down in the park after work. It was a little humid, but a great afternoon not to get out in the park. Stuck mainly to the lower trails and then back on Forbidden Drive on the way back to NorthWestern. Should have made this return trip a tempo run but I think our legs were still pretty heavy from the afternoon workout.


Workout comments: I finished the double unders in about a minute and a half and averaged about 3 minutes or so on the four rounds. I finished all thrusters without dropping the weight, and resting only once during the KB swings. I broke during the 3rd round of situps for a few seconds. I was disappointed that I couldn't string together a more consistent stretch of double unders. I'm convinced that this skill comes and goes. You can have good days and bad days. I had previously thought that the Vibrams were providing an edge, but they didn't really help today.
