Great work out tonight, I have really been trying to make sure I have good form in my work outs for two reasons, the first was because I wanted to make sure I didn't injure myself and the second goes along with what Nathan talked about a few months ago in class and that was that the WOD's are not a race, he would rather see us use good form and finish last then see us be sloppy and finish fast. Some people can do both.....good form and finish fast, it is a beautiful thing....someday! :) Also, Sean has been talking about it in his blog a few times the past couple months ( you can read here )and since I started really watching my form and trying to get full range of motion I have seen huge gains and feel much stronger.
So I just wanted to second Sean's post...for me it seems to be the best way to hit these work outs. I still struggle through some things with form, but I really appreciate Nathan, Tina and the other trainers correcting me and setting me straight.
Work out:
Skill:
5 rounds of barbell front squats.
Ended up at 145#'s on my last set.
10 ring pushups.
WOD:
7 rounds
7 med ball cleans
7 burpees
7 ring rows
Time: 11.53
Food:
7 am oatmeal with protein, glutamine, flax oil
9 am protein, water
11:30 chicken sandwich
3:00 protein, water
6:00 protein, water
8:00 8 egg whites omelette, broccoli, mushrooms, salsa
on the weeks we don't have Hannah, i'll be coming to 6:30pm classes so we can work together on our good form mission as a team. By the way, amazing squats tonight.
My schedule has been bouncing all around the last couple weeks but it should get back to normal soon. Send me a text later and let me know your schedule the rest of the week. I am doing 10am today, rest day on Wednesday, Thursday 5pm and Friday I have it set for 10 am but might change it to the 5pm class.
Thanks for the catch Trevor....I added that to my work out! :) I think my arms are more sore from that then the work out.
