CrossFit Day 35
Today’s workout was aptly named “Nasty Girls.” After my awesome friend, Oz, chauffeured me around to get computer parts, a PSP, and a too-large Mexican dinner, I headed over to the nearby elementary school to do tonight’s workout.
After my substitutions to compensate for my unmanliness and my ill-equippedness (heh), this is today’s work:
Nasty Girls:
Three rounds for time of:
- 50 squats
- 28 assisted pullups
- 28 bench dips
- 10 reps hang power cleans (2×30# dumbbells)
I think there’s something awry with my squat stance, because on the bottom and the rising portions of the squat, i hear cracking in my knees—not just in the kneecaps, but on the side as well. I’m sure the cracking is an alignment issue. I alternated between the low bar and the rolly high bar for assisted pullups, so as not to favor either side of my body too much (or wear one side out too quickly). The hang power cleans were difficult at the end of sets of the other stuff. The hardest part was not belting myself in the collarbones with dumbbells that each represent nearly a fifth of my body weight.
My results: 22:27, 12:59 zone (hard); HR: 161 avg, 176 max; 314 cal
