Alamo, Texas, WOD

REALLY did not fee like working out today but I made myself do it and, I think, I'm glad I did.

30/10 tabatas, 8 rounds
1) jump rope, as many dbl unders as possible, avg of 9/round, I'd say
2) flutter kicks
3) push-ups
4) bicycles (burned out a lot on these)
5) squats (much needed after the bicycles)
6) Burpees

Very sweaty and exhausted after those.  I really felt tired for some reason...

Office WOD

Since I was waiting for class I figure I’ll sneak in a mini WoD. The floor is just plain nasty and I didn’t want my skin to fall off if it touched it. This kinda limited my Workout options but it was not going to stop me from getting in another workout. So for this set I did the following.

Tabitas 8 rounds, 30 Secs, 10 secs rest):

1. Single under Jump rope
2. Chair arm lifts (Think pushups but with chairs)
3. Lunges
4. Desk pushups

Now it’s off to class…

I am Iron Man WOD

Since I’m still a bit sore from the Dungeon WOD I figure I’ll take it a little slower today. So I did a few rounds of various things.

For time: 31-16-9 of Push-ups, Squats and Bicycles. Time: 3:09.00
Tai Chi 64 x3 (I finally learned the whole thing this week)
For Time: 31-16-9 of Push-ups, Lunges and Crunches. Time: 4:18.3
Pau qua (Sections 1-5) x2
For Time: 31-16-9 of Push-ups, Frog Leaps and Leg lifts (oh my). Time: 5:15.2

I admit I was going to do burpies after the Frog leaps but about half way through them I know I had to switch. I’m going to though them in somewhere next time.

Now it’s time to meet Tony Stark at the Alamo Ritz…

Dungeon WOD

Tabatas:30sec, 10 sec rest, 8 rounds each:

flutter kicks
sit-ups with 10 & 12 lb. medicine balls
woodchoppers w/ 10/12 lb. med.  Llz
medicine ball throw w/10 lb.
parallellets/push-ups (4 rnds each)
squats/lunges (4 rnds each)

Feeling a bit spent & wobble-legged in a good way.  I'm going to count Tuesday kung fu as one of my workouts for the week.  I'll workout either Saturday or Sunday--should we meet up again or just go solo?

Burn those Crepes WOD

Since my wonderful wife decied to get up early and spead WAY too long making Raspbery Crepes, it was my duty as a husband to eat as many of them as possable. For my crime I did the following tabitas:

8 rounds, 30 Secs with 10 secs rest

1) Single under jump rope (This is becomeing my default warm up round)
2) Crunches
3) Bicylces
4) Squats
5) Push-ups

I should have done more but the crepes were slowing me down... which means I'll make up for it soon.

Stupid workout of the day (not recommended)

To start, eat a bagle sandwich with eggs and cheese and then eat the leftovers that two other people at the table couldn't finish. 

Wait 45 minutes

Next, delude yourself that 5 round of :30/:10 tabatas isn't going to be that  bad; this is going to be a "quick and to the point" workout. 

Proceed to exercise to the point of nausea with the following movements: 
1) jump rope (at least 10 dbl unders per 30-sec. round)
2) push-ups
3) flutters (oh, now begin to really feel those undigested bagel-wiches!)
4) squats
5) what-pass for bicycles, burning out many times along the way 

Next lie on the floor motionless for 8-10 minutes.

Finally, go have a Reed's extra-ginger ginger beer to try to settle your stomach. 

I hate Lucas Benchmark WOD

Since Lucas (now known as “that bastard masochist”) posted his Benchmark workout I figured I’ll give it a spin. It sucks. I did his workout below with the changing of double-unders to 2x single-unders. I’m not good at the double under but single unders I can do. Thinking about it I think it should be 3x single-under to the one double-under. The reason why I say that is my time was: 13:03

Suck it! :P

The other thing I going to change the next time swap out jumping lunges for squats unlike Lucas I’m closer to the ground and squats are harder for me.
