Death by Kettlebells

 I couldn't make it to Boost on Monday or Wednesday this week, so I did a big girl thing and went to regular CrossFit on Tuesday. I enjoyed being there with everyone! Daniel coached, Chris assisted, saw Haley... So it was a good day!

Here's the workout:

So yes, we started with hang power snatches, which I had never done, so I just used the training barbell for those. Also, I did not realize how much more difficult overhead squats are to regular squats. Ha! Then, the main workout was swinging a kettlebell until you couldn't anymore, basically. I really liked this class overall!

Twitchy Twenty-five

So Daniel was the coach for Wednesday’s Boost class, which was cool because I feel like I never see Daniel. Our workout was potentially crazy. We got the classic WOD, Filthy Fifty. Allow me to explain that. The workout is 50 reps each of so many horrible things....

• For Time

• 50 Box Jumps 

• 50 Jumping Pull-Ups

• 50 Kettlebell Swings 

• 50 Walking Lunges

• 50 Knees-to-Elbows

• 50 Push Press 

• 50 Back Extensions

• 50 Wall Balls 

• 50 Burpees

• 50 Double-Unders

So, Daniel said we could split it and do 25 twice. I decided to do that, but I never actually made it to jumping rope. We had a 22 minute cap on the workout, so that means I did half of it? Ha, oh well.

The Bike Strikes Again

So, this is the first time I've been to the gym since February 27. It hasn't been because I didn't want to go or anything like that. It's just that the classes I feel comfortable going to are only on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays, and there have been conflicts. If I would step out of my comfort zone and go to regular Crossfit, I would have a lot more options. 🤔

So tonight's workout was:

1:00 at each station

Mountain climbers

Alternating glute bridge

Sit-ups

Hand release push-ups

Single-unders

Rest

x3

And then, not so fast...

1 mile bike 

I'll tell you, I can ride a bike a mile, no problem, but the assault bikes are no joke!
