Wondering...

 
5×3 Front Squat - 55lbs.
 
Then…
 
Complete as many rounds as possible in 15 minutes of:
 
10 Kettlebell swings, 2 pood - 26lb.
10 Box jumps, 24 inch box - Used 4 45lb. weights
10 Ring dips - Used a box
 
I typically do not like AMRAPS and dread them because I just don't feel like I get a good workout or have the time to focus on what I need to improve on but tonight wasn't bad.  I actually felt like it was a good workout when I was done.  Still don't like being timed but I guess it's a good thing for the coaches. 
 
I think it might be time to try to up the ketllebell to 35lbs.  I tried it a month ago or so and it sent me backwards but wonder if it's time to try again.  Now, the 26lb. is not easy but think I might give it a try. 
 
I feel like I'm getting better at the step up using the weights.  I'm not holding onto the wall anymore when I step up which I'm glad about.  Now stepping down off the weights is a little harder but I'm getting better.  Got to thinking tonight if maybe I should jump off the weights and start getting used to that part of a real box jump.  Not sure if it would help my confidence or not but then that's what the trainers are for... let them decide ;-) 
 
I just don't like doing dips on the box.  Think I'd get a better workout doing push ups.  Seems like the same thing to me. 
 
It was a good WOD!
