Monday WOD-"Nancy"
"Nancy" is 5 rounds for time of:
-400m run
-15 overhead squats, 95#
time=13:50
Not a bad effort on my part but not great either. I finished this one almost a minute faster (14:40) than the last time I did it but I was on pace to finish almost 2 minutes faster, that is until I took off for the 5th and final run. I lost my legs, must have taken me 2.5 minutes for that last lap. Couldn't find any gas in the tank. That leaves me almost 2 minutes short of my 2009 goal for this workout (11:59). I'll get there.
After "Nancy," I finished with some skill work.
25 repetitions of each of the following:
-handstand push-ups
-ring dips
-push-ups
It took me a while to work through these movements. Handstands are my nemesis and at the present, I'm unable to perform a true handstand push-up. So, I modify the movement by putting my feet up on a plyo-box and piking so my trunk is as perpendicular to the ground as possible. From there I just push-up. It's significantly easier than the true hspu, but still tough for this 260 pounder. Just have to keep working at it. Getting leaner will continue to help.
