  • CFR Endurance - Rest Later, Run Now Workout

    with a partner, run the following

    800 meter (rest while your partner runs 800 M)
    400 meter (rest while your partner runs 400 M)

    4 rounds (3 miles total)


    Teamed up with Debbie this morning. Unfortunately, as I went to look back through my splits, I accidentally reset my stopwatch, so I don't know how I wound up. The few times I looked, I think my 400s were around 1:30 and 800s 3:15ish. Either way, I thought my effort was strong and my form felt good.

  • Deadlift, Hanging Clean, and Push Press Workout

    3 Rounds for time (RX 155)

    10 Deadlifts
    10 Hanging Clean
    10 Push Press


    Went with 135, and I was pleased with my time given that weight. I really need to improve my strength, so I need to focus more on going heavy on these types of WODs. The push press was quickly replaced with a push jerk.

  • Deadlift, Hanging Clean, and Push Press Workout

    3 Rounds for time (155#, 100#?)

    10 Deadlifts
    10 Hanging Clean
    10 Push Press


    I used 65#, which I feel like was a good weight for the hang clean and push press (obviously too light on the deadlifts, but whatever). I feel like I struggled just enough but still managed to do the WOD in a decent amount of time. Happy with it, considering the dietary nose dive I've had recently.
