11.08.2011


AM Training (5:00am)

10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

Thrusters (95/65)
Box Jumps (24”/20”)

Score:  11:08 Rx+ (did 24” box instead of 20”)

Rest 5 min.

10 GHD every 90 seconds for 10 Rounds

Rest 3 min.

10 wall balls every 90 seconds for 6 Rounds

It’s time for a programmed rest day.  Those thrusters went so much slower than they should have.  And I could tell it was from still being tired from last night’s workout, lack of a proper dinner, and in general fatigue.  As I’ve said before….I struggle with rest days.

So here’s the plan of attack, get through Thursday, and since I have a trip to ATL this weekend (and have pulled out of X’s & Y’s – darn you Chris for having school stuff to take care of!), no working out Fri-Sun.  When I come back, I’m going to have to get serious about doing 3-1-3 schedule.  My best friend of 8+ years, Keith – Mr. Know It All, has harassed me about this for a long time – my inability to rest and relax because mentally I “can’t” handle it.  He’s been stressing the importance of attacking this mental block regarding resting just as I do any of my other CrossFit weaknesses – program it, stick to it, and get better at it as a result. Way to be all logical against the lawyer!
