CrossFit!

I skipped my upper body workout and decided to do a CrossFit workout with the group tonight at our CrossFit box-Black Label CrossFit.

The WOD was: 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1:
Hang power clean 95lbs
Barbell rollouts

My time was 9:10

Then we did bench press for strength, 10-9-8-7-6-5 reps, increasing weight each set. After that I played around with some muscle ups on the rings.  Needless to say, I'm pretty sore today!

I love Front Squats :)

I've been having some weird hip pain the past couple of days, so I changed my leg day up slightly today and skipped deadlifts.

1)Barbell power snatch:
75x3/75x5/75x5

2)Front squats:
Warmup sets, then 125x6/125x6/115x8(used a slightly more narrow stance than I normally do)

Circuit:
3a)Leg press: 170lbs x12
3b)Kettlebell swings: 25lbs x15
3c)Front loaded reverse lunge with kettlebell: 25lbs x8each side(alternating)

Didn't do any conditioning today since my calves and ankles are so sore from all the double unders I did Monday. I'll take my dog on a 30 minute walk later today.
