WOD - 080929

21 OHS (used 45#)
15 box jumps
9 handstand push-ups (modified on bar)

as many rounds as possible in 20 min

total: 3

Pretty miserable day all around. Was feeling weak during warm-up (30 push-ups + 30 ring dips), really struggling to get through it. OHS were strong except for sharp pain/stress in my wrists as the reps increased. Wrist strength/flexibility definitely weak. Also, sharp pain in back of left shoulder left me lacking confidence.

Overall, not a good day.

50 pull-ups
400m run
21 push press (65#)
400m run
21 push jerk (65#)
for time

time: 24:10

I was slower than most by several minutes, but the push-ups took me a while (very fatigued from 100 push-up/day that I've been doing). Left shoulder is also tender, so I was a bit tentative. Also, I did everything unmodified, which always slows things down relative to everyone else.

65# is getting to be too easy. Need to increase next time.

10 ring dips
10 SDHPs (used 85#)
7 rounds for time

Yowza. Really sluggish on this one. Dave noticed also, and we talked about diet. I eat crap on the weekends, so I'm sure that's a big part of it. Mondays are always harder.
