Forearms

We had our affiliate team wod today, it challenged me in an entirely different way. I don't think I had ever struggled so much to not drop dumbells.

hang squat snatch
95 x 3, 115 x 3, 135 x 3, 155 (attempt but failed reps), 135 x 3
*hook grip is going to be a challenge

W.O.D.

10 db hscp (on this set I wanted to drop the db's sooooo bad!)

Time: who knows, all I know is that Kirk "the electrician" and I pushed it at the end and he passed me.

I was going to do the wod that the 10am class did this afternoon but I had to go out and get me some of this beautiful day.

1:30pm

went out on the road bike for the first time in several months:
Garmin stats:
11.2 miles
43:56
3:55 min/mile

I was aiming for a 4 min/mile so I am glad I was able to maintain that pace. The weather was amazing, absolutely PERFECT for a ride. My bike is not one of my strengths, when I did my half ironman it was the event that needed the most improvement. Even though biking is not going to make me a better crossfit athlete, I still plan on riding to better prepare me for triathlons this summer.

When I got back from the bike I wanted a little more so I went out for a short jog.

2 miles
17:17
8:39 min/mile
320 cal

It felt so good to get out there and ride then run, I am looking forward to this summer. I will get in the wod that the 10am class did today tomorrow, I am looking forward to it!
