Day 2 testing

Wednesday's WOD:
Day 2 of Level 1 testing

√ 3/4 bw deadlift
√ 1/4 bw shoulder press
√ 400 m run (1:26 PR)
√ 10 SDHP (55#)
   10 second L-sit
   1 dip
   7 rounds of Cindy
   15 Overhead Squats

I did a modified Cindy (ring rows/sit ups/squats).  My shoulder is feeling better today but I still want to take it easy for a bit so I don't re-hurt it. My last 400 was 1:34 on May 11, I'm really happy with my time today.

I didn't even attempt to do the KBS, WB, push/pull ups because of my shoulder.  I think the only one I would have been able to do is the KBS.  I'm really happy with my mile time! Thats 24 seconds faster than the last time, just 11 days ago!

100 days in the ZONE!

Today is my 100th day doing the zone! I started on January 25th (just over 18 weeks ago) so I've obviously had some cheat days in there.  The first few months a cheat day for me was when I went out somewhere and didn't weigh or measure, even if it looked close, I didn't count it.  I'm now a little more lenient with that.  In the 100 days I've been doing zone (and crossfit of course) I've lost 30 pounds!  Not only that but my workouts have improved sooooo much.  I'm looking forward to what my next 100 days in the zone has in store!

Front Squat
