So today we did our family trip to the gym since the gym wouldn't be open tomorrow...this was my wod:
5 rounds for time of:
15 deadlifts
9 hang power cleans
6 push jerks
all with 50 lbs. of weight!
I finished in about 15 min. and some seconds...Andy was there to encourage me and keep me going even when i wanted to quit...for me, olympic lifting is hard because there are so many things i have to remember to do with my body to do it right and to do it safe...and then i'm trying to remember the wod as i'm going...exactly how many reps and what round i'm even on...all while i'm lifting really heavy weight and it takes all my energy to just lift the stupid weight...all the other stuff just goes out the window when i'm trying really hard to just do the exercise corectly...anyway...does that make sense?...so i actually forgot what round i was one during part of it..thankfully Andy reminded me...it felt really good when i was done! yay!
i did end up with some nice blisters and some rough callouses after that!

wow, great job! 50 pounds is so great! even 20 pounds to me can start to feel like 100 pounds after 4 or five rounds-lol! i can't wait until we can actually do a wod together....
