I'm yellin timber....
Seriously -- I went down
I hurt myself :(
On April 6, somehow, I damaged my back .
the WOD was push presses, overhead squats, and russian twists. It could have been any of these movements, but the likely culprit was the Russian Twists.
So now I have to take it easy. No jumping or weights for awhile.....
Certainly no line dancing, lol. I love working out to this song. But the video...yikes!
I'm working on mobility and upper body strength....
I miss the WODs.
OMG -- I'm addicted to CrossFit. They told me this would happen....

6-minute time cap
(I look just like her when I'm competing)
I had to perform the "scaled" version of the workout. I can't lift the Rx weight (yet) and I can only do 2 toes-to-bar in a row, lol.
See the explanations of the scaled workout HERE.
Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 9 minutes of:
15 hanging knee raises
10 deadlifts (85 / 55 lb.)
5 snatches* (85 / 55 lb.)
*ground-to-overhead allowed
I was a
But on Friday I did it! Yay me!
But most impressive (to myself, don't burst my bubble)
I clean and jerked 80 lbs! My PR was 45!
My biggest surprise -- Those hanging knee raises whipped my butt!
A HUGE thanks to Coach Stephanie who talked me through the whole workout.
So, I am totally pumped and even feel that I could have done better -- part of me wanted to try again right away :) (Yes, I know that I still could, but I won't).
The reveal for 15.2 will come this Thursday night - 8pm EST (March 5). I really hope that it doesn't have box jumps. Because I'm just ready this week to move up to a higher box and I'm not even sure if it will be high enough to be the scaled version! But, I'll try :)
