Today's WOD Skill: Double Unders
AMRAP 20 [I did 3 2/3 reps]
1 Lap (inside) Bear Crawls
30 Double Unders OR 90 singles [Me: Mostly singles]
200m Run
That picture is what I think about Bear Crawls and Double Unders. They STINK! Bear crawls are pretty easy on the first lap, but after that they are NOT fun. (I'm having a hard time finding a consistent bear crawl video. Basically on your hands and feet walking like a bear. Left leg and left arm go forward, then right leg and arm go forward...and so on...) Now with double unders, I can do them when I don't need to do them...as in practice. When it comes to doing them during the WOD, it's almost impossible for me to get it. I will though!!
We also were supposed to do 5 handstand pushups in the warm-up this morning. If you have never tried this....do not do it alone! HAHA! Wow, that is so much harder than it looks! I tried it on the wall, then had to move to a box to help me until I am strong and sturdy enough to get on the wall to do it.
I keep thinking about the 12 week mark that I'm aiming for to really feel like I plan to stick with this. Seems so far away when I'm getting up at 5:15 every morning for a 6:30 workout! I feel like I've been doing this for a long time and it's just now two weeks! It's hard not to get frustrated when you don't see immediate results because the workouts are SO intense. Felt really good again today. Still energetic now that I'm home! I'm loving this feeling that I have most days of accomplishment. WOOHOO!! ;-)
