Tire

Evening WOD at Hybrid Athletics.

First, three rounds for time:
90 second jump rope for reps
90 second box jump to bench for reps
TOTAL REPS: 823
(note: double-unders the first round, singles afterward because they were much faster)

Then, three rounds for time (resting between rds):
90 second tire flip, 400# tire
REPS: 7/9/10

This was great practice for the Winter Challenge next Saturday: one event will be a 5 minute AMRAP of 4 tire flips (400#) and 5 snatches (75#). I'll figure out how fast I can do the five snatches so I have a mental goal going into the event.

Finished with some work getting the stones overhead: succeeded with 61# and 90# several times, failed with 112# but I'm close and I was very tired by that point. Also, after many attempts, flipped the 650# tire. That was pretty crazy. I didn't know if I was going to get it or not. It took so long to get the tire off the ground, and I had my eyes squeezed closed. Everyone was shouting encouragement, "Just keep moving forward!" and stuff like that. Pretty cool. I don't think I've ever succeeded at something like that before, where it was so difficult I genuinely didn't know that I could do it.
