My body is feeling pretty good after an easy-going week of exercise. I found a lot of time to rest during my light week and was able to get in a couple wods that were light and refreshing. Today was my first day back going at it pretty hard and it was quite the wod to come back to. The "Filthy Fifty."
The "Filthy Fifty" is 50 reps of each of the following exercises performed straight through for time:
-box jumps, 24"
-jump pullups
-american kb swings, 16kg
-walking lunges
-knees to elbows
-pushpress, 45#
-ghd hip extensions
-wallball, 20#/10ft
-burpees
-doubleunders
time=27:49
Not a bad time. My 2009 goal for this wod is to break 25 minutes and I'm close. Maybe that goal should be 20 minutes. We'll see where the summer takes me. It's easy to say this, but I'm fairly confident I could have broken the 25 minute mark had I gone after this wod a week and a half ago, right before the qualifier. This last week of rest did do me well in regards to performance, but my poor nutrition has definitely taken me back a step or two. I feel I'll be back in the game soon though.
