Fitness - Two-A-Day, Box Jumps & WOD #1 w/ vest - 4/14

Damn, my hamstrings are so tight this morning. After every time we do good mornings my hammies are barking at me for days. This time was no different. I even started feeling them tighten up yesterday afternoon. I did a lot of stretching last night with a band and I'm sure it helped, it just doesn't feel like it.

Our focus this morning was box jumps. We worked with sets of 3 building up to a max height. I just listed my final height below, I didn't measure any of the other sets.

Focus: box jumps, sets of 3
1x3 - 48 inches

This was really fun. Everybody in the gym got behind one another was cheering everybody on. I had no idea how high I was going to be able to get so this was surprising, and it felt kind of effort less. I know I could have broken 50 inches today, just ran out of time.

WOD w/12# vest: AMRAP in 10 minutes of
10 wall ball shots - 10'/20#
5 frog jumps - 20# med ball
10 v-ups

Finisher (no vest): 400m farmer's walk with one, 32 Kg kettle bell per hand.

Score/Time: 13 full rounds, 9 wall ball shots
Calories burned (including focus, WOD & finisher): 644

The frog jump is where you hold the medicine ball over your head and do a squat jump. This WOD was a quad killer for sure. There was about 10 minutes left in the class so I went out for a walk around the block, it was a beautiful morning. As usual the farmer's walk smashed my grip.

But that's good, I need it to get stronger. WOD #2 coming up tonight.
