Wednesday's Workout

Five a.m. feels like eons ago...

Strength Skill:

Zercher Squats (3-3-1-1-1)


I matched my PR of 215 pounds (from back in December!), though my attempt at 225 failed. When my ankle is 100 percent, I'm definitely going to give it another shot.

Metcon:

3 rounds for time:
  • 400 meter run
  • 15 overhead squats (95lbs / 65lbs)
  • 10 toes-to-bar
I'm sick of not being able to run properly. Skipping is fun and all, but it's not the speediest way to get around.

Also, looking back, I wish I'd gone with the RXed weight instead of scaling down to 75. The overhead squats felt pretty good, and even though it would've taken me a lot longer to complete the workout, I'm confident I could have gone heavier.

Result: 12:02.
