Wednesday 11-12

Wednesday 11-12

I had about 45 minutes to get in the whole wod before I coached at the 5pm. So, I started with a very quick warm up and went right in to the first part of the strength.

Strength
A) Every 2:00 for 12 mins (6 sets) 

Clean & Jerk
 135, 155, 165, 175, 175, 175
-

B) Every 2:00 for 12 mins (6 sets)
Clean & Jerk
8 x 105
5 x 135
4 x 150
2 x 175
2 x 195
2 x 205 - Failed both

Super frustrated at the last set at 205#. I dont feel like that should be hard at all, but I had no energy to pop it over head. Maybe it was b/c I really had not rest for the last 24 mintues. I did go right from the warm up to part A) then right in to B) with no rest.... But I dont feel like that should make that much difference. 
So, I was definitely upset, but I have also need to remember not every day will be a PR or even feel good. Apparently Im still workout the Paleo diet and trying to get the proportions right. 

C) 
WOD

AMRAP 4 
5 Hang Snatch 135#(scaled to 115#)
10 Bar Burpees
---

rest 2:00

AMRAP 4 
10 power cleans 135# 
20 Pull ups
---
Rest 2:00

AMRAP 4 
15 Box Jumps overs 24" 
30 Wallballs

Score: 3, 2 + 2, 1 +23 


So, again, with almost no rest, I went right in to the WOD. And it showed. I just felt totally gassed from the start. Im sure not resting much made some difference, but I dont feel like it should effect me as much as it did. 
My heart rate was racing... it went right through the roof in round 1 and never came back down. I know that I should have got a much better score but I just couldnt breath and my heart was pounding like it rarely does. 

Not sure how much more I can deal with feeling this way. I mean, if I am eating crappy or drinking then I can expect it and sure, I have brought it upon my self. But when your eating clean and you think you should be going the right direction, but not seeing any results, it gets discouraging... 

We'll see how the next few days go...

  1. Funny you write about this. I wrote a very similar post on my blog. The emotional ups and downs of crossfit.....maybe this should be included in the L1 class.
