I've been working out for the last few weeks without my CrossFit partner, Pete. In his absence, I have been having a hard time getting myself to do the MetCon workouts. I'm just falling more and more in love with the barbell and seem to gravitate towards it at the gym and have been focusing on heavy lifting. Further, until this week, work and physical therapy and being distracted by the guy I'm seeing has made it hard for me to get to Zumba. So today, having Pete finally back in the gym with me, I made sure to include MetCon in today's program which was:
1-1-1-1-1 Squat of choice (I did overhead squats up to 65 pounds)
3-3-3-3-3 Bench press (I did 50-55-60-65-65)
AMRAP for 15 minutes:
9 deadlifts (95 pounds)
12 CrossFit Games pushups
15 12" box jumps
(completed 6 rounds + 6 deadlifts)
250 airsquats (completed in 9 minutes)
The AMRAP part was so hard! Sweat flying everywhere and totally out of breath! I felt so out of shape. I'm definitely feeling the impact of my lack of metabolic conditioning lately. I can't let that slide again! I was a great workout though. My whole body is still feeling it hours later!
