Elm City

Amy and I checked out Elm City Crossfit tonight. I was a little worn out from the morning WOD, but needed a break from studying. So we went to the 5:30pm class, which was just strength. [Amy got an intro AMRAP actually, but I just did strength.]


Workout: We got there late, so there was no warm-up, just . . .

Back Squat
2x5
3x3

#135, 185 x 5
# 205, 205, 205 x 3

Push Press
2x5
3x3

#115, 125 x 5
#135 (1), 135 (1), 125 x 3

This was frustrating - to fail on the second rep of 135. The coach, Bobby, said I was sending the weight forward instead of up. This is something to improve on next time. I haven't done back squats in so long that I don't know if 205 is a light weight for me or not.

We ended with a fun "relay race" type thing where every team member rowed 10 calories worth while everyone else did planks and supine KTEs. A couple rounds of that made my abs hurt after this morning's work on the bar.

Now just need a good stretch before bed.
