October 17, I like sore butts and I can not lie...


We did a lot of squatting, lunges and tilts today. I will be sore tomorrow, that's for sure!

I did the 10 x 2 with 85 lbs (my 1RM is 135 lbs) because my knee was still sore from wednesday. 

I did the rack lunges with 45 lbs and in the beginning I did the pelvic tilts with 35 lbs. Since they went really easy I went up a kettle bell size every new round.

This WOD after so many squats, lunges and tilts was pretty heavy.  I scaled the cleans/squats to 75 lbs and finished in 9:51.

September 8, mental block

I went to a party on Saturday so I didn't go to the box on Sunday although I wasn't hungover or so. I just went to bed late and wanted to give my body some rest.

I went on monday and this was the WOD:

21-15-9 reps for time of:
Russian Kettlebell swings (70/53)
Burpees
Toes to bar

7 power clean (135/95) after each round

The strength part consisted out of 1 RM power clean and 2 rounds of 10 man height jumps alternated with 10 double kettlebell cleans.  I thought my 1 RM was 85, but it actually already was 105 lbs. When I reached that point I started thinking that my 1 RM power clean couldn't be higher than my 1 RM front squat.... and I blocked. I could definitely pull the 115 lbs high enough but I couldn't bring myself to jump underneath it. Mental block !!

I did the WOD with a 53 lbs kettlebell (heavy!!!) and scaled the toes to bar to knee raises on the rings. I did the power cleans with 70 lbs. Unfortunately, I forgot my time, whoops, and I can't decipher the whiteboard picture but I definitely finished within 15 minutes and it felt great!
