Day 58, Activity
Afternoon
2 laps around Neshaminy Mall, no jacket required :)
5:30 Class
Strength: Back squat wk 3
90x5, 100x3, 115x6
WOD: "Chelsea"
At every minute for 30 minutes
- 5 pull ups
-10 push ups
- 15 air squats
Specs: Red band
Result: went to 21 minutes; completed 8 minutes with rest, completed 15 rounds, 5/10/8
Notes: Holy push ups. They are where I got held up. Majorly. By round 7 I couldn't do all 10 in a row (a trend through most push up WODs for me). Pull ups felt great, possibly b/c only 5, but had no trouble hitting all 5 in a row and/or getting my chin over the bar. Air squats are air squats; my favorite stand by movement :) probably lose a sec or two on them b/c I tend to go super low in my squat.
**SECOND DAY NOTE: my shoulder is in pain :-/ Used dumbbells to set it back in yesterday which helped but today it feels out of place...
