Good Start

Today's WOD got changed up but that's okay because it really was a good WOD and it worked me. 

AMWRAP 20:00

5 Shoulder to Overhead 65lbs.
10 Push Ups
15 Walking Lunges with 10lb. weight held in front of me

Rounds: 4 with 7 Lunges

I feel good about tonight's WOD.  It was tough but not to the point of exhaustion.  Although, the shoulder to overhead almost took me out on my 3rd round.  I was struggling and about the time I was going to call for the coach I dropped the bar and luckily the it went forward and I stayed standing.  I had to really fight for the last round of shoulder to overhead.  My arms were hurting so badly and they're still burning.  This exercise forced me to use my legs and hips along with my arms to push the bar up over my head instead of just using my arms which I am bad about. 

I got my knees and chest off the floor for the push ups.  I wasn't allowed to do girl push ups as I did a few and got caught.  Those boy push ups are hard!  But I feel better about them this time in comparison to the last time I did them.  They'll get better. 

Now, walking lunges are not my specialty.  I have to work on getting my leg strength better so I can pick myself up off the floor without the use of my arms.  All I can say is this one is work in progress. 

All in all it was a good WOD and I came away feeling accomplished.
