Hit this WOD on a whim Sunday night. Husband has a weird issue going on with his shin, so I took him over to the "satellite" gym to use the rower for his running substitute. He's addicted to running, so complete rest is not an option for him.
Filthy Fifty was on the board for Friday, and some other peeps had come in and done it on Sunday. So we modified it for him, and I did it "regular".
Filthy Fifty
50 box jumps (20'')
50 jumping pullups
50 kettlebell swings (1/2 pood - 16kg)
50 walking lunge steps
50 knees to elbows
50 push press (35#)
50 back extensions (did supermans, no GHD for me yet)
50 wall ball shots (14#)
50 burpees
50 double unders
Results: 45:29 (includes a potty break during DUs :-p)
This WOD and I just do not get along. Especially the part where I'm supposed to do 50 K2Es. I think I spent about 15 minutes doing K2Es, and 30 minutes doing everything else. Seriously.
Low points:
- K2Es were not only agonizingly slow with small sets of 2s, 3s and 4s, but there weren't even close to Rx with my knees touching triceps most of the time; I have a lot practice to get "Rx" on this WOD...
- Back extensions -- still afraid of getting on the GHD for fear of triggering renewed back/hip pain...
High points:
- 50 unbroken kb swings
- 25-15-10 wall balls; this is an epic improvement for me on those
- push press felt light, wish I had gone for unbroken
- double unders -- every minute of practice I did to get these is worth it when I breeze through them in a wod
Great job, Cheri! The DUs are always get in the end, but you're definitely right on with the K2E... It's the midway point in the WOD and you start to feel it.
