Hi Friends!
It’s been a few week since we had a fitness friday so I thought we’d play catchup today! Here are some of the workouts I’ve been doing lately:
1. Holy legs. Squat cleans killed me. 5+15 Rx+ (used a 24″ box) plus a 40 inch box jump PR before the wod
2. Sunday funday! 19:15 for the first wod with 53# kb swings and ttb instead of hspu. 95# snatch PR! 8:56 for the second wod
3. Warmup: 2 x 500m row (sub 2 min) 4 x 250m row (sub 1 min) – last one was my fastest!
4. Strength day
1. Last open wod redo. In march I got thru 26 reps with my hands in reverse grip for the ctb pull ups. This time I got 46 reps and all my pull ups were forward grip!
2. Squat cleans and a triple wod – 6+5, 5+5, 5+5
3. Not my favorite. 13:53 with burpees instead of hspu
4. Set your rower to 500m intervals w/ 3 min rest. Row, then do 15 pushups & 20 weighted lunges during the rest period…rest remainder of 3 min. Complete 4 times. Rowing interval split has to improve or stay the same each time or you repeat the round.
1. This is how we do Sunday Funday crossfit style. Wod 1- got thru all but the pullups of round 3, Wod 2- 3:21, Wod 3- 13:41
2. Cut 4+ minutes off my Angie time. I think I did my pullups about 5 minutes faster than last time. Now I just gotta work on those pushups! 22:17 Rx
3. Seriously terrible #wod today. 26:58 Rx
4. PR’d my grace time at the beginning of this (4:30)!! then it went downhill from there. 22:16 Rx
1. 4×5 front squats (105,115,125,135) then 5+15 for the wod
2. Tabata sprints, then two 5 min amraps – 6 rounds for wod 1, 43 reps for wod 2
In other news:
I’m competing in my second crossfit competition tomorrow! It’s at a local box (actually the one I worked out at for a while when mine was closed). This one is a little different than my first one. While that one included some running, dumbbells, etc…this one is more focused on lifting heavy weights. It’s also a partner competition. I’m competing with my coach and it should be a lot of fun! There are a lot of ascending weight wods…meaning the weight gets heavier as the workout goes on, which is always a challenge!
I’ll let you guys know how it goes!
Enjoy!

It’s a great feeling looking back on the week and feeling proud of all the ways you pushed your body and took great care of it! Good luck in the competition – you go, girl!
you had me at heavy weights too 🙂
GOOD LUCK.

killer stuff, Lindsay! I did end up trying that rowing wod, and it kicked my butt! I don’t usually use the rowing machine, but I definitely will more often.
Congrats on all your PRs–especially on “Angie”! You crushed that. And best of luck in your competition!!
Good luck this weekend! I love hearing about crossfit competitions. They always fascinate me due to the intensity and it’s something I don’t do! I hope you post about it!

Good luck this weekend!! I’ll be cheering for Man O’War CrossFit from my dog agility trial, and you, of course!! Taylor Johnson’s my coach, and he’s competing in the other heat of the Rx division (not yours).
You are killing it! I’m sure you’ll rock the competition!
