    Workout from yesterday –
    Warm up
    Sports drills – sprinting with IT band resistance
    Played indoor soccer = hyper extend knee a little, and a twisted ankle

    Back Squat to 315×1 super low, felt good

    OHS 3RM – 135×3 – 155×3 – 185×3 cut it there with the no dumping rule.

    Push jerk practice 3RM went very well!
    135×3 – 155×3 – 185×3 – 205×3 – 215×3 – 225×3 – 235×2 (f)

    WOD destroyed me.

Will try to keep up with WOD’s on my own but will certainly miss the support. Thank you all and I look forward to getting back to the gym when I return.

    Disappointed with my score..but feel like I worked pretty hard this morning and don’t know that I could have done much better..

    Really struggling to stay focused during my workouts lately…thanks for keeping me on track Chantal!

    QOD: Running, swimming, pullups, pushups, and as much as I hate them, squats.

    1. Chantal L.

      I also think you worked pretty hard! You did a great job on keeping your reps consistent! This definately was a tough one. Happy Friday!

    4. Heidi

      Nothing wrong with that score Amanda. That was some heavy weights you used. (And your form always looks great on your lifts. I’d trade great form for speed any day)

    1. Nath

      Question: do we have to be able to do all the movements (ex.: hand stand pushups, strict pull ups, muscle ups)? or can we scale the workouts?

      1. Mario

        If its anything like last year, Rx is required to be in the official standings, but you can scale and still participate.

        Also I personally found that last year’s workout were well planned in terms of accessibility. Some of the weights were a bit heavy.

        Im sure the coaches can elaborate a bit more on this.

      2. Chantal L.

        But the tough mudder doesn’t soune like it’s all fun and games! Come onnnnn the games are only 20$ and you don’t have to pay extra gas or take a hotel room to participate! 😛 heheh

      3. Mario

        Yeah, everyone should join in the fun, honestly, these are some of the most fun workouts to do during the year, great atmosphere at the gym.

      4. Nath

    WUx1, Burgener WUx2

    Front Squat 5RM 155-165-185-205

    WOD Rx = 45 + 18 = 64
    – Was a tough one, liked it. Perfect to work on muscle endurance and cardio required to lift heavy during WODs.
    – Lower back was getting tired on the squat snatch, but no sharp pain on either side, an improvement of some sort.

    Good job everyone! Have a good week-end!
