When I Grow Up, I'm Gonna Be Smart Workout

And I’ll do things like not play in a charity basketball game on a questionable, at best, ankle. I’ll even take time off from CrossFit to heal. Yep. Going to do all of those things when I grow up.

But for now, let stupidity reign!

Warm Up:
Anything with the bar: shoulder press, push press, good mornings, and cleans

Mobility:
PNF Hamstrings
Rolled quads
Shoulders on bands

Max Effort:
1 Rep Max*
Clean & Jerk

*This sucked. It’s my favorite lift and I could not go after a new 1RM. I tried a few at 135 LBs and 155 LBs but I did not have enough stability and strength in the ankle to split jerk or do heavier cleans. And what sucks the most is that 155 LBs was not hard on a bum ankle and my old 1RM was 165 LBs … I was going to crush that. Dammit!!

MetCon:
8x (not for time)
2 Hang Clean High Pulls
1 Clean High Pull
100 LBs

After the “MetCon” portion of the show, I did the first step in the 12.5 ladder just to see how it felt on the ankle. All I’ll say is that 12.5 is going to suck some ass when I give it a go on Sunday (was not able to try it last night as I had 25% mobility in the ankle).
