Workout: 2-13-08

Yesterday I did 65 minutes of cardio on the elliptical. And as always there's the warm-up which includes lots of stretching, rowing 500m, pushups,jumping pullups and the like.

Today's Crossfit workout:

Here's the routine:
5 Double Unders - (Jumprope and the rope passes under your feet twice for each jump. For those who can't do double unders it's 25 single jump ropes) Sounds easy right?

10 One Handed Push-Ups - uh huh.. 5 with each arm. that's right baby. one freaking handed push ups. Eric taught us the technique. The other hand is counterbalance and can support (according to Eric) up to 40% of our weight if we need it to.) Yeah I needed it to.

20 deep lounges - Think big step forward, keeping the ball of the back foot in place and "lung" forward. With good form this is harder than it seems. but still the easiest of the others.

The workout: Do as many rounds of the routine as you can in 20 minutes.

My result: 7 rounds - not great, but definitely an improvement from last week.

My body is getting used to it. I feel like I'm going to puke less often and I'm recovering faster. Though my arms are really sore from doing different kinds of pushups friday, monday and today. I'm praying for a break from pushups on Friday.
