Sometimes, You Gotta Scale

July 17, 2008 · Filed Under Work Out of the Day · Comment 

Tough workout this morning.

Have you ever noticed, no one in the gym is sweating more than CrossFitters?

Have you noticed the funny stares you get from the dudes in sleeve-less shirts ticked up in the preacher curl bench, …or the chatty-cathys hovered around the lat pulldown?

Things that make you go, “hmmmm….:”

CrossFit HQ WOD - scaled

As many rounds in 20 minutes of:

  • 15 pushups
  • 12 ring dips
  • 9, 115lb push-press

Summary: got four rounds. Had to scale to 95 lbs on push-press, and without rings, had to double bar dips to 24.

Killer training.

Due to the back injury, the only exercise I can handle at the moment is swimming, so:

Monday WOD:

  • 1 mile swim

…you’ll be seeing a lot of this throughout this week.

Gotta get an underwater MP3 player tonight: Swimp3
