Thursday 3\/1\/12<\/p>\n

205.2<\/p>\n

Intention:<\/p>\n

Oly Technique
\nOverhead Squat
\nab\/hammie asst exercise
\nRow intervals
\nCF Open WOD#2<\/p>\n

I came in to the gym this morning and see a mate lying on the floor panting. Knowing that she just finished WOD #2 there was no question as to how she was. I’ve been there. So I called her name out and said, “Great Job!” even though I didn’t see her at work. She did it and that was more than I had done for the day, so as far as I was concerned, it was a great job. She looked up and asked if I was God calling her out of there. Then we joked along the lines of seeing the tunnel-of-white-light. <\/p>\n

Seeing post WOD death and feeling my stiffness I start to regret claiming I’d do the WOD today. I began warming up for my OHS work, then thought; this is stupid to try and OHS when the WOD is snatch. And then I thought my hamstrings will probably be sore for the weekend as it is, so, stupid again to do extra work if I was going to do the WOD. I narrowed it down to rowing intervals and WOD #2 and then calling it good for the day.<\/p>\n

Actual:
\nI used my alternate Rowing Randomizer today:<\/p>\n

Me: Coach MG, pick a number between 1-10
\nMG: 9
\nMe: 9! (to myself, CRAP!)
\nMe: Pick a distance between 100m-500m.
\nMG: 250m
\nMG: What are you doing?
\nMe: You are my Rowing Randomizer today.
\nMe: Pick a rest time between intervals
\nMG: 1:1
\nMe:……..
\nMG:evil cackle
\nMe:…..me….realizing that this might really suck depending on how hard I attacked it.
\nMe: That doesn’t really encourage me to row fast and hard, MG.
\nMG: evil cackle<\/p>\n

I was confused at how I was going to keep track of all of this so after the first interval I decided to program the little computer to give me 1 minute rests between intervals. I thought this was brilliant. Till I realized that I was giving myself 1 minute rests between 250m intervals that I was rowing closer to 2 minutes. Had I done it the evil cackling coaches way I would’ve had more rest. <\/p>\n

:-\/ <\/p>\n

This is where learning to count with something other than sticks and stones might come in handy someday. <\/p>\n

Row:
\n9x250m with 1:00 rests
\n#1 1:59.5
\n#2 1:57.4
\n#3 1:55.7
\n#4 1:54.3
\n#5 2:13.4 -discouraged with my results, this is where I said, “To hell with this; I am taking up Scrapbooking!” put down and picked up the handle a couple different times before I did some weird funky chicken finish. But then I couldn’t get my feet free before my rest timer was finished and it was time to row again. <\/p>\n

Stupid Crossfit training my body to just GO when the timer says.<\/p>\n

The rest of the intervals were me trying to get it below 2:00 again.
\n#6 2:05.4
\n#7 2:03.2
\n#8 2:01.5
\n#9 1:59.6<\/p>\n

From now on I’m going to stick with the first inception of the Rowing Randomizer. <\/p>\n

\"IMG_5397\"<\/a>
\nIt is silly enough to keep me amused and doesn’t say crazy things like, 9, and 1:1, making me all confused and do even stupider stuff. And if is ever does, I can just bump it off the table till it doesn’t say 9 and 1:1.<\/p>\n

In the end I talked myself out of WOD 2 today and will do it on Sunday with my Powerlifting partner.<\/p>\n

The good thing about seeing WOD #2 in action is I am more encouraged about having better results than I first perdicted for myself. A full snatch is very tiring for me and pretty slow too. With it being more of a power snatch I’ll be able to move faster.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
