Wednesday WOD
Today's wod was a combo of two CF classics. The first, "Annie" is generally 5 rounds, 50-40-30-20-10 of double-unders and abmat sit-ups. "JT" is a Hero wod and is 3 rounds, 21-15-9 of handstand push-ups, ring dips, and push-ups. Today we put them together into a wod I've affectionately named "Annie and JT Sittin' in a Tree." This wod was three rounds, 21-15-9, for tim of:
-doubleunders
-abmat situps
-handstand pushups (performed full range, band assisted)
-ring dips
-pushups
time=29:15
This was a nemesis wod for me. The double-unders and sit-ups were cake and I'm convinced if I'd a just done 50 of those each round, instead of the 21-15-9, I would have finished the whole wod faster due to more rest/time to recover before the next round of pushes. I got done with the first round and my shoulders and triceps were already wrecked. Then it was only a couple du's and sit-ups and it was right back to the hspu's. It was awful. By the end of the first round I was only getting 1 ring dip at a time and only 2-3 push-ups. In rounds 2 and 3 I was fighting for singles on everything. I hated this one. But, it's wods like this that I need to be doing to really progress my fitness and my capacity for the gymnastics/bodyweight movements. I think, by the time I'm recovered (which may not be for a week or two after this bastard), the benefit of this workout will have far outweighed the painful trudge through it. I'm psyched.
