I did a fun chipper at 8:00 am to start off my morning.
50 wall balls
40 hand release pushups
30 deadlifts (225 lbs)
20 hang squat cleans (135 lbs)
10 muscle ups
The WOD started off great. I breezed through the wall balls without too much effort. Then I hit the push ups. Despite doing pushup workouts 3 days a week during my vacation in India, they still remain one of my worst exercises. My muscles seem to get tired pretty fast, and don't recover too well. After struggling through the 40, I got through the deadlifts doing 5 sets of 6 reps. The last few sets started feeling really heavy and I was not looking forward to the hang cleans. Picking up the 135 lb bar after doing 30 deadlifts at 225 was very deceiving. It felt like picking up a bar with no weight on it. After a few reps my body started feeling it. 4 sets of 5 and I was onto the muscle ups, which I slowly trudged through. I finished the WOD in 22:00 and was pretty happy with the result. The pushups and muscle ups were definitely the slow part. Just a few more things to work on.
