CrossFit Day 85

Today’s workout was “Grace”, a 30 rep set of clean & jerks. Since I don’t have a barbell setup, I decided to go ahead and attempt this one with dumbbells, after watching Annie, a CrossFit demonstrator, show how to do it with dumbbells in a video.

After my trailing foot slipped out from under me on the second rep and I smacked my knee into the ground, I decided to put the 35 pound dumbbells back under the table and go after the rest of the workout with the 30 pounders.

Unfortunately, I slipped with the other foot about halfway through the workout and thumped myself in the head and collarbone with one of those. So, I cursed a little bit, mopped up the rain-tracked floor, and grabbed the twenty-fives. I really focused on form on this workout. One of these days, I’ll get some instruction.

My results: 14:28, 2:56 zone (hard); HR: 165 avg, 189 max; 202 cal
