21-15-9 reps for time of:
Handstand Push Ups
Burpees
Knees-to-elbows
Results: 12:28 / 13:17 (plus 3 reps)
Enjoyed this short & sweet workout. My HSPU’s have improved slightly, I can go deeper now even at the 7th rep whereas previously I would have just done a shallow one after the first 2. Managed to steadily maintain proper form for burpees (high jumps & claps. wOOt!) as well as knees-to-elbows, so even tho my time isn’t very good, was satisfied with the form for this WOD.

Five rounds for time of:
15 Kettlebell/Dumbell Thrusters @ 35lbs/25lbs
15 Ring Dips
Result: DNF (Did Not Finish) Barbell @ 50lbs. Did two round within 6:50 but decided to stop as I could feel pain on my left shoulder. I think my previous injury has not fully healed 0.o

Attempted to do last Saturday’s workout of run 3 rounds of 1.6km. Took me about 5 mins plus to do 800 metres before my right knee started acting up again. The knee support didn’t help much. I guess the sensei was right when he said I shouldn’t put so much weight on it for the time being. There goes my participation in the next few running events. FML -______-”

Bleh. Since I couldn’t finish the two above workouts, I picked something which I knew I could complete.
3 rounds for time;
10 Deadlifts @108lbs
10 Chin Ups
Result: 7:08
Thought I was slower than the last time I did this (072209), but it turned out that my time had improved by 33 seconds. Yay!

Swam 20 laps x 25 metres. Didn’t stop as many times as previously, a sign that my endurance is getting a lil bit better? Or it must’ve been the caffeine high -__-”
