- My ankle continues to improve (I was able to run on it today -- kind of!);
- I got to work on squat cleans; and
- Today's metcon was bodyweight-focused -- my favorite!
More after the jump...
Strength Skill:
- Squat Cleans (5-3-3-1-1)
Metcon:
- Run 200 meters
- 50 squats
- Run 200 meters
- 40 Abmat sit-ups
- Run 200 meters
- 30 lunges
- Run 200 meters
- 20 knockdowns
The only problem? In my haze of nearsightedness and giddiness, this is how I read the workout:
- Run 200 meters
- 50 squats
- Run 200 meters
- 50 Abmat sit-ups
- Run 200 meters
- 50 lunges
- Run 200 meters
- 50 knockdowns
In other words, fifty of everything. I should've suspected something was up when it took me twice as long to finish my lunges as everyone else, but what can I say? I'm not too bright.
It wasn't until I was halfway through my knockdowns that I realized I'd done about three dozen reps too many.
But whatever. It was insanely fun. I love this stuff.
Result: 9:05 as RXed (but with 50 reps of everything except the knockdowns, of which I did 26 before I squinted at the whiteboard and came to my senses.)
