I got to bed pretty late last night since I was visiting a couple of my friends from college for dinner. That alarm at 7 was pretty harsh. But my excitement for going back to team Saturday woke me up the second I walked in the Fort. K-Tuck and I decided to work on over head squats since we don't get to outside of WODs. This was the weight and reps
5@15kg 5@25kg 3@30kg 2@35kg 1@40kg 1@45kg 50kg-fail 50kg-fail 1@48kg new PR by 13kg!!! The toughest part of the OHS at 50kg was locking it out over head. Getting that back push jerk over head was just not cooperating. I was determined to get it after K-Tuck accomplished it, but it just didn't happen. So I took 2kg off the bar and successfully lifted 48kg. I felt good in the squat and feel like I can go heavier, I just need to get it over head.
Then it was time for Team Saturday. It was a rough one to come back to after a couple of months, but it felt great to be back. The WOD was:
In teams of 6 complete 3 rounds of:
2:00 wall balls (20/14)
2:00 ball slams (30/20)
2:00 rowing for cals
3:00 rest
*2 team members at each station with one person working at a time
*at the end of the last 3:00 rest 1:00 of max burpees
My scores for each round and the burpees were: 60/62/56/19
I had a great team with Steph, Garth, Drew, and Pete.I knew we could be in the running for the championship belt, but I also knew the overhead squats really tired me out. These are all movements I'm pretty good at, but my legs were beat. Steph and I were paired up and started on the rower, I took a good chunk of the 2:00 each round and more as the rounds continued. So I put on at least 20 cals every row. I was beat by the time we got to wall balls, but I pushed through those and the ball slams. THEN Bill decided to surprise us at the end with 1:00 of burpees. That was tiring, but if I can get 19 in a minute, I sure can do more when I'm rested. In the end our team came out on top with 1738. I love team Saturday's win or lose, because I always get a great workout with some great people.
Brunch: 3 eggs and 6 pieces of bacon and a paleo treat

Oh and on another note...I stepped on the scale this morning and was at 161! Woot! goodbye nastiness that was in me!
