Fitness - Good Mornings & light WOD - 12/03

Holy hell I'm sore. My shoulders especially. My legs are always feeling something so I don't really count that anymore. But my shoulder and triceps are hating life. I warmed up for a long time today and did a lot of stretching with a purple band trying to loosen up.

I knew that whatever was in store for today, I was going to take it nice and slow and light.

Focus: Good mornings, 5x8
1x8 (still warming up) - 20 Kg
4x8 - 40 Kg

Good mornings feel great. Really helped to mellow out my hamstrings and hips. i kept it light as to not over exert myself.

WOD: 8 rounds for time of:
8 Wall Balls - 6# med ball/10'
8 Dumbbell push presses - 25# db's
8 Push ups

Score/Time: 10:06
Calories burned (focus & WOD): 425

As promised, I took my time and went super light for this WOD. I transitioned smoothly and never had to break (because I was taking it so easy) during the WOD. At first my shoulders were hurting because they were so tight. But after 2 or 3 rounds they started to feel great. The light work really did help me today and I'm feeling the benefits.

My goal was to use it as some active rest and loosen up my body so it would be easier to stretch afterward. Which is exactly what I did. I had another great post workout stretch session. My only worry is that the good mornings are really going to make my hamstrings tight, and I'm pretty sure we'll be doing some running tomorrow. I plan on being back to my usual self and hitting it hard tomorrow.

For now, I'm stoked on how this week is progressing and I can't keep my mind off the games.
