Friday's Workout

Strength Skill:

Handstand Push-Ups

I did 30, in sets of 5. What's odd is that I always manage to do more at the gym than at home. They feel easier, too.

Metcon:

"Jackie"



  • 1000-meter row
  • 50 45-pound barbell thrusters
  • 30 pull-ups

Result: 9:28. The row was (surprisingly) quick and easy, and I got through the first 25 thrusters just fine, but thereafter, I kept taking a few seconds to catch my breath after every five or six reps. I could (and should) have done better on my pull-up time, too. I'm happy I shaved 35 seconds off my previous Jackie attempt, but I'm determined to kill this the next time around.
