Did the BW deadlifts with 115 lbs. Workout felt great. I think my week off with not even riding my bike was a good deal - was feeling run down and beat up after 3 60 mile rides, 5K, 15 mile ride each day + CF 5 x week. And I don't feel like I've slipped backwards at all. richard
After Saturday's big lifts (topping out at 170# deadlift) I was feeling pretty confident going in to this workout. It seems I was not recovered properly though and my back and I ended up in an intense battle after 1500m row, 40 box jumps, 4 deadlifts at 135# and 14 deadlifts at 115#. The back won the workout battle and I ended with a big DNF:( I am feeling much better and moving around well, so I am encouraged. I expect a quick recovery. No worries, no regrets. Thanks for the ice, Leslie.
i am feeling stronger with the endurance factor and i feel like i am starting to understand the concept of pacing myself. i only did the deadlift with 65lbs. once i understood to lean forward, the weight distribution felt better...whole body worked and took the pressure off my knees.
Missed the 9:00 crowd. Good job everyone! Annie was in a play at school so I couldn't miss that! I did the WOD after DL 125# and finished in 15:ish. Did not have time for the situps though. Liked the workout, good mixture of cardio and lifting. Doable - was worried after I struggled to get out of bed this AM.
Enjoyed the workout Leslie! A good challenge (was feeling pretty beat up after yesterday). 115#for all 3 sets of DLs, step ups on the box jumps & managed to squeak out the 200 situps. Not the fastest but felt good.
