My first box... sorta

quick recap for the past few days

Thurs:

did the cf motown wod of:

9min AMRAP
4 Snatch grip deadlift
5 clapping pushups

i was paired up with lauren's brother - a first timer - and it was nice to actually coach someone through a wod again. he was getting frustrated that he wasnt doing it right but i wasnt going to allow him to injure himself - he ended up getting 11 rounds though.

Rx was 205# but i went with 185# and a regular grip. I felt strong and was able to really focus on maintaining the form especially when bringing the weight back down. and i did all my clapping pushups unbroken so i guess my at-home work on legit pushups is paying off. Apparently i ended up with 17 rounds - but i wasnt counting so i'll take that really high number (in comparison Griffin, who Rxed, only had 15 rounds) with a grain of salt.

Then it was ffl time - which i always look forward to (and she never disappoints). as an added bonus, it turned into LLOCFME time and as usual it was awesome!

Fri:

it was nice to have that sore feeling from the week's wods. had a nice relaxing evening and tried out Molly Malones in Whippany for the first time - great atmosphere and solid burgers too!

Sat:

Wanted to print out postcards for the Lululemon Deadlifts and Downdogs event that morning so i got into work at 630am, set the alarm off, and broke the printer:



please note the disassembled printer covered in blue (not supposed to be blue btw). Left with nothing except a visit from the cops for setting the alarm off. Fast forward to the event and it was so nice to coach with Mike D again. I'm a little rusty but i think overall all the yogis (they call themselves that and I'm running with it) had fun and that's what was important! Wedding later in the evening in pennslytucky was interesting.

Sun:

Partially recovered from the wedding and built plyo boxes with my good friend jason.


long day but very productive - thanks again bud!
