Today was a great day. I’m starting to feel more myself after a 2-week hiatus. I’ve been focusing on eating clean for the last couple of days and it has definitely made a big difference in my energy levels. Not quite Zone Diet exactly, but good lean proteins, lots of veggies and limited simple carbohydrates with moderate fats.
I wanted to tax my system and get the blood flowing in preparation for doing the Murph in about 2 weeks time. The last time I did the Murph I got spanked. Not this time! I’m gonna be ready.
The WOD was simple:
- 100 x Pull-ups
- 200 x Push-ups
- 300 x Air Squats
Complete the above as quickly as possible. Record time to comments.
My time to complete was 17:45. I’m happy with that result, but really forgot how difficult it can be doing static pull-ups opposed to kipping pull-ups. I was finding that after 6 rounds of 10, 20, 30, I had to go to 5, 10, 15 until completion. Regardless, I’m ecstatic with the final outcome and hope to complete Murph in sub-37 minutes (that’s about 6 minutes of my PB).
