Fitness - WOD w/10# vest, 3/22

There was no strength work this morning. Today is the 7th birthday for CrossFit Seattle so there was a little birthday workout at the gym today. It was simple, but oh so painful.

WOD w/10# vest: 7 minutes on, 7 minutes rest, second 7 minute round of:
Kettle bell clean & jerks - 20# kettle bells (44#'s)

Score/Time: R1-90 reps, R2-82 reps
Calories burned (warm up and WOD): 759

Holy cow! This was a deceptive workout. My whole body was wrecked when I was done. The Rx for the workout was 16Kg bells, but I needed to go heavier. Even with the heavier kettle bells there were only a few that beat my scores with the Rx weight.

I felt pretty good about this effort. It was one of those workouts that you just have to zone out and grind through each rep. Rest when you need to but only for a few breathes then pick em' back up and get to work.

I've got three two-a-days this week so I'm planning on being pretty tired come the end of the week.
