Luke is still recovering, so Jeff attends a session and then I’m on my own; thus, I coached both the 8:30 and 11 am workouts and worked out solo between sessions.
Today’s programmed workout:
Metcon (Time)
With a partner
AFAP
21-18-15-12-9-6-3
Thrusters (95/63)
SDHP
Partners may choose how to complete reps but each athlete must complete a minimum of 1 rep per round
Metcon (Time)
With a partner
500 air squats
Athletes must take turns completing 1 rep/turn
As I had no partner, I completed solo. I did, however, decrease weight of thrusters and SDHPs to 85# — and that was plenty heavy.
I felt very tired today, and often felt light-headed. I didn’t go all out, and I’m glad that I did not. I only completed the rounds of 12 & 9 SDHPs unbroken as well as rounds of 6 & 3 SDHPs and thrusters unbroken.
I hate thrusters. I. Hate. Thrusters.
I completed 84 thrusters and SDHPs in 17:29.
And then I completed 500 air squats. Five hundred. Gah!
I completed first 100 unbroken, albeit at a relaxed tempo. The next 100 reps I did based on effort, sometimes completing less than 10. And that made me upset. I completed the last 300 reps in sets of 10.
This took a long time to complete! How long? Fourteen minutes and 39 seconds.
My legs felt dead. D. E. A. D.
