Fitness - Military Press & WOD w/ vest - 3/11

Well, I didn't end up taking an ice bath last night because it when I got home it was probably the least enjoyable thing I could think of and I just plain didn't want to do it. And although my legs are pretty sore today, they aren't as sore as i expected them to be, which is good! My chest, the front of my shoulders and lats however, are super sore.

Focus: Strict press, 5x5, build up to heaviest set
1x5 - 60 Kg (132.2#)
1x5 - 70 Kg (154.3#)
1x5 - 80 Kg (176.4#)
1x5 - 81 Kg (178.6#)
1x5 - 81 Kg (178.6#)

Yesterday's burpees killed my chest and shoulders today. This weight felt really heavy so I didn't try to push it. I've gotten 86Kg for a set of 5 but there was no way that was going up this morning. Instead of building up to a heavy set, I took it more as cross sets and tried to stay consistent.

WOD w/ 10# vest: Using a 40# dumbbell, 5 rounds for time of:
10 dumbbell split snatches (right arm)
10 over head lunges (weight stays in right arm, alternating legs)
10 dumbbell split snatches (left arm)
10 over head lunges (weight stays in left arm, alternating legs)

Score/Time: 9:17
Calories burned (Focus & WOD): 454

My legs were feeling the burn after I finished but I'm really happy with my time. Fastest time of the day by over 2 minutes.

I'm really trying hard to push through some walls and learn how to hold on and just keep grinding out work. So, today I just put my head down, focused and pretty much tried to work straight through. It worked pretty well.
