09-03-14 CrossFit

Warm up:
None really. Did some 85# DL and some 70# DL. Played around with the bands trying to figure out how best to do the hanging hip touches.

WOD:
Kevin:
3 RFT:
32 Deadlift 185# (70#)
32 Hanging hip touches, alt arms (right foot in red/black band, left toe touching ground for balance)
800m farmer's carry, 15# DB (500m, 5# DB)

26:12 min

Ouch. I probably could have done a heavier deadlift as I was able to do 3 sets for all rounds, but I didn't want to overdo it and hurt my back by losing form. I scaled the hanging hip touches a bit too much as I did all of them unbroken, but I just couldn't find a method that would work for me. My core strength and arm strength just both suck and it wasn't working out. The run was bad- I really needed to shake out my arms and such, but you can't do that when running with DB. Even at the much lighter weight, it is amazing how much a farmer's carry can screw up your running form. Sucked, but powered through and reminded myself it was a hero WOD and walking was not an option.
