I should be getting my new lifting shoes today. (on a side note I really really hate UPS).
Today Coach Alex didn't make it, with the horrible road conditions, he wreck into a curb and damaged his car. Sucks.
His replacement? Coach Frank. The boss. The head coach and inventor of our torturous programming.
It was actually a fun workout. Similar to one they had to do this weekend at the Firebreather competition (which he and teammates Anne, Alex, Michelle, Tim and Nathalie took first place!!).
Initially a 14 minutes AMRAP, he allocated an extra 3 minutes, in hopes we'd make it to the end. We where shy 16 double unders.
In teams of the 3, share the work (reasonably equally)
-200 wall balls
-100 toes to bar
-150 box jumps
-200 double unders.
It was difficult to share equally, one of us was stronger than me the other weaker, but I think it worked out fairly balanced.
Double unders killed me, I got 3 turns, the first one I barely got 5, then I got a good string of 30 something, and third time like 6. Ugh.
Wall balls and box jump were solid. Toes to bar, I worked really hard, and managed to get a couple of good sets in.
Because Frank was late, we (those of us that could stay) did the strength work with the 6:30 class.
We worked on clean and jerk at 75% of max (I used 135# instead of 139#)
- 2 cleans + 1 jerk
- 1 clean + 2 jerks
repeat.
Did okay. Frank gave me some good pointers.
