After a Couple Days on the Golf Course

My cousin Matt and I, all muddied up

On Saturday night I did the Warrior Dash for the first time. It was a lot of fun doing the obstacles. As I had expected, the run wasn’t bad at all. Now I need to step it up and try a Tough Mudder. Then on Sunday and Monday I went on a little golfing trip up to northern Michigan. It was nice to have a couple of rest days away from the WODs.

Warm-up

5 rounds

  • 1m AbMat Sit-ups
  • 1m Russian Twists (30# KB)
  • 1m Plank
  • 1m V-ups
  • 1m Table Top (30s each side)
  • 1m Rest

I could still feel the GHD work that I did on Friday night. This was the first time doing table tops and wow are they tough.

WOD

  • 1m Wall Balls
  • 3 rounds
    • 100m Run
    • 5 KB Snatches (L)
    • 5 OH KB Lunges (L)
    • 5 KB Snatches (R)
    • 5 OH KB Lunges (R)
    • 100m Run
  • 1m Wall Balls

Kind of a weird WOD with the minute of wall balls at the beginning and at the end of the WOD, especially when everyone had to keep track of their own minute at the end. I got 29 wall balls that first minute and 25 at the end in the last minute. Total time for the WOD was 8:40, using a 53# KB for all of the snatches and lunges.

Finisher

  • 100 HR Push-ups

My push-up endurance sucks. I think I started off with a set of 15 and then a set of 10, but after that it was 5s for a while and then whatever I could do. It took me 7:48 to finish off the 100.

A Quick One

As it got into the afternoon I was feeling better than when I woke up this morning. Once I ate lunch, I felt like I could handle a workout, so I gave the food a couple of hours to settle while floating in the lake. Of course laying on my stomach on a floatie tightened up my lower back.

Warm-up

2 rounds

  • 10 PVC OHS
  • 10 PVC Pass-thrus
  • 20 Plyo Lunges

WOD

10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1

  • Goblet Squats (50# KB)
  • Diamond Push-ups
  • Box Jumps (24″)

This was a pretty easy one. Did it in 7:50. To make it harder I could have done front squats holding 50# DBs, decline push-ups, and box jumps on the 31″ ledge. The quick workout was enough for today though.

Finisher

50 OH Lunges (50# KB)

I broke these up into sets of 15-10-15-10, with short breaks in between the sets. Didn’t time it though. It was some nice work on shoulder stability while also working the legs a bit.
