Oh, Barbara!
Thank goodness for rest day. I took full advantage of it today after facing "Barbara" yesterday. She tore my hands to shreds and throughout the day my body progressively got more sore. I have to say that this Mega Metcon Tuesday wasn't nearly as bad as the last two. If it wasn't for my hands, I would've enjoyed this workout and gotten all 5 rounds of pull ups in. For those of you who don't know ...
"Barbara" is 5 rounds of:
20 pull ups
30 push ups
40 sit ups
50 squats
3:00 of rest between rounds
I was determined to do this wod RX'd even though my pull ups are just coming back into full swing. I was about to get the first 3.5 rounds in prescribed, then my right hand ripped. Jennie gave me the option to tap out after the 4th round, but I was determined to finish this girl! I taped my hand and then my left hand ripped during the final round. I definitely didn't get my chin over the bar on all 20 reps, maybe 10 of them my hands were killing me so much. I was kind of disappointed in that. But I gave this workout my all and did the best I could. Hopefully the next time she shows up I'll be able to finish it without tearing my hands and completely RX'd. This time I finished at 32:32. Which is a decent time, need to work on the pull ups and push ups.
Food for the day:
Breakfast: 3 eggs and 6.5 oz chicken fajita (chicken, pepper, onion)
Lunch: 6 oz pork tenderloin with cooked baby carrots and mashed cauliflower
Dinner: 4 oz salmon and a side salad with cucumber and tomato
Dessert: smooth with coconut milk, almond butter, strawberries, banana, and blueberries.
