No morning weight
WOD:
“Cindy”
5 Pull-ups
10 Push-ups
15 Squats
*amrap 20 minutes
This workout doesn't look super hard. It probably is though. I'll probably start with the blue band and regress to the green. My goal is 12 sets, which means I need to do more than 1 per minute.
9:40 pm: Finished with 11 1/3 so I pegged it pretty close to what I finished with. I started the WOD out with pretty strong intensity and kept it up for the first 8 minutes or so, but really started slowing down after that. This workout is kind of sneaky because none of the movements are super hard. But, since they are doable, it encourages intensity, which is what it got out of me. 11 1/3 isn't very good compared to everyone else, but I AM 39 years old now and still pretty overweight at ~250 lbs. The results would no doubt be drastically different if I was down around 200, or even 220, which is my August goal.
Extra Credit: 21 deadlifts at #135 without putting the bar down. This weight is actually super easy now that I'm focusing on using my legs at lower weights - also probably because I've been working on deads for a few weeks now and getting more accustomed to heavier loads. Even though the weight was easy, it's a good little intensity add-on. I wonder if it would make sense to do this every day for some period of time - kind of like the monthly squat challenge.
