Firsts

As the old saying goes, there is a first time for everything. This week has been just that. The first time I completed a Rx WOD without dropping weight, the first time I lapped the others in my class, the first time I finished first, and the first real live bloody rip.

Pretty gross I know, but I kinda feel like a bad ass for having it since it's a result of doing 100 pull ups.

WOD
Strength:
Back Squat
110 x3
130 x3
140 x5

Metcon:
AMRAP in 15 min
10 pull ups
10 push ups
10 sit ups
10 squats


10 1/4 rounds

I did have to do a few rounds of the push ups on my knees because my shoulders were burning but I got a carpet burn and went back to doing real ones and took breaks instead of finishing the rest of them on my knees.

I also did the WOD barefoot. I did the last reps of my back squat without shoes to practice my form and just didn't put them back on since we weren't running. It's gross to be in a gym without shoes but working out barefoot, especially the strenght stuff, is awesome. It changed my world! I may never go back. Or maybe I'll break down and start wearing Chuck's, but that's the last thing before my entrance into the cult is complete and I don't know if I'm there yet.
