Fitness - Back Squat & WOD w/ vest - 3/18

Man, my legs were super fatigued this morning. They weren't really that sore, just super tired. So I stayed pretty light during our focus and luckily our WOD today was a relatively light one.

Focus: Back Squat, 5x3 cross sets
2x3 - 130 Kg (286.6#)
3x3 - 140 Kg (308.6#)

Wow, this felt heavy. I took it pretty slow and focus mainly on form each rep. I didn't really attack it with any intensity, my legs just couldn't go heavy with back squats today.

WOD w/ 10# vest: EMOTM for 20 minutes
Jumping back squat - bar only (20 Kg - 45#'s)
10 hanging ankles to bar

Score/Time: N/A
Calories burned (including focus & WOD): 557

This wasn't too bad at all. Trying to hold my grip is what gave me the most trouble. Although the squat jumps with the bar in the back rack position started to wear on my legs, it was only 5 reps. My abs started to feel it at about the halfway point. But my grip is what failed me, hanging from the bar.

I took a break from the ankles to bar for a few rounds and did knees to elbows. Not so much because of my stomach getting fatigued, but because i was having to re-set my grip so often with the ankles to bar. I was able to bang out the knees to elbows much faster, providing me with more rest before the start of the next minute.

It ended up working and I went back to ankles to bar after 3 or 4 rounds of knees to elbows.

I'm happy today was a light day.
