  • Eva Workout

    http://www.crossfitsouthie.com/mini-marathon-monday

    WOD
    Eva
    5 Rounds
    800m Run
    30 KB Swings(2,1.5)
    30 Pull Ups

    L2 – 4 rounds of 20 each (1.5/1) <===
    L1 – 3 rounds of 15 each (1/.5)

    Notes
    Holy crap, it was hot! 85 or so, which is especially rough for the Boston Marathoners today.

    I need to work on Pose running more. I've been reluctant to work on it during WODs because of tiredness, so I need to do it in my spare time.

    On KB swings, I'm going to start trying the snatch method. They teach beginners to swing the KB with locked arms, which is simpler, but that method often causes overswings at the top and puts more stress on my back at the bottom. Goose showed us this method where you start with the hips and then high-pull the KB upwards with bent arms, pushing it into a lockout overhead. Apparently, this is also beneficial for competitions, where the KB has to be completely vertical at the top.
