WORKOUTS

I did this WOD yesterday””first workout of 2014!

IMG_0130 (600x600)

I used 55 pounds for the Overhead Squats and Push Presses and finished 5 rounds with 9 seconds to spare. I was watching the clock to see if I could fit in one more Overhead Squat before it buzzed, but I ran out of time. Whomp whomp. This workout was definitely a quad smoker!

We did this workout the other day, and it was SO COLD outside! Brrrrr!

I substituted Strict Knee Raises for the Toes 2 Bar, which I suppose is a pregnancy modification. I was never great at T2B before getting pregnant, so it would have taken me forever to do 20 of them, so I opted for Strict Knee Raises. I finished in 18:55.

This one was fun! My quads burned so bad on the overhead walking lunges!

Once again, I substituted Strict Knee Raises for the Toes 2 Bar, mostly because of time. I can still do Toes 2 Bar, but I do them like a slow pregnant lady. Haha! I used 35 pounds for the Kettlebell Swings and a 35-pound plate for the Walking Overhead Lunges. I can’t remember how long it took me to finish this workout, but it was a good one!

Mal and I did the workout below during Open Gym last week. It’s a shorter version of a workout that our box did the day before, and I blogged about it here. It was a tough one. My butt was sore for days!!
