Getting there...

Today's WOD worked every bit of me!  I used a wall ball on 2 weights to make sure I squatted low enough with the front squats.  It really does feel good to not have to deal with that box anymore.

“The Admiral”
3 Rounds for time of:

20 Burpee pullups
20 Front squats (155,105)
20 Box jumps (24/20)

Time: 29:48

Those burpees work every last inch of you.  One of these days I will master the correct way of doing a burpee. 

Front Squats were hard!  Trying to stay on my heels and keep my chest up while holding the bar was tough.  But I felt the ball over half the time so I know I was going lower than I normally do. 

Box Jumps are still somewhere down the line to accomplish but for now I'm good with that 45lb. weight to jump on.  I felt good about them.  Was told that I'm about to graduate to another weight.  I say bring it on! 


So the new Carb Cycle nutrition plan started today.  1 Regular day followed by 2 Low Carb days and follow the pattern getting 1 cheat meal at the end.  No sugar at all.  With 20 air squats thrown in after each snack/meal.  This is going to be tough but I'm up for the challenge.
