WOD
21:00 - 3:00 to complete each round:

10 - Deadlifts ( 115#/185#)
20 - Hollow Rocks
10 - Pull Ups
20 - Double Unders

Any time left on the clock before 3:00 expire shall be used for rest. If 3:00 expire before all moves are completed, start next round from the beginning.

Warmup:
2 rounds
jump rope 1min
20 wallballs - 16#
jump rope 1min

My WOD:
10 - Deadlifts 155#
20 - Hollow Rocks
10 - Pull Ups - green
40 - Single jump ropes

Hollowrocks kicked my ass on this one. The right side of my lower back was sore during the whole WOD which slowed me down. I would like to come back and do this WOD again when my back is better. I was able to at least jump a little rope before time expired at 3 mins. That was my goal when the WOD started.

My WOD:
65, 85, 95, 115, 135 x5

175 x1
185 x1 PR

Nice to set a new PR on something. Power Cleans today were great. The weight didn't get heavy until I hit 175. That was hard. My first attempt at 185 I dumped. It just didn't feel right. My 2nd attempt I just wanted to get it done! I am sure it didn't look pretty but I got it done. Looking back I could have done 155 x5 but I can save that for the next time.

Hollow Rocker hurt. They are not fun at all. I mostly did them in sets of 5. It was actually nice to break up the WOD with the Rows or pushups.

Darn Snowboarding

Went snowboarding with my son on Friday and had a great time. It has been at least 6 years or more since the last time I went. We had a great time and I didn't have any major wipe outs. But i did manage to twist my ankle. So I have been sidelined from Crossfit for the past few days. I am going to the Lunch WOD tomorrow and see what I can do. I don't want to not do anything.

I have been giving it a lot of thought about trying to go Paleo. I think it would be very hard for me to stick with it. Crossfit SK might have some sort of challenge, so I might jump in on that and go for it. We'll see.

20 - Burpees
1 round normal reps
last 4 scaled to half the reps

So I learned a lesson today. Do not give blood the day before a WOD like this one. After the first round I was so gassed I didn't know if I could make it through. I got a little dizy doing the deadlifts. Nothing to major, but just enough to make me pause. I will not be doing that again.
