Mr Joshua and a WOD!

Mr Joshua was another hero WOD that absolutely tore me apart!
The wod consists of:
400m run
30 GHD sit ups
15 Deads at 250lbs ( I went with 112,5kg)
5 rounds for time.

Like I have told you all before, my hands were a work of art and more remenesent of a tapestry, than a finely tuned tool, after the first two hero WOD's- so the deads were a dread even before I got started.
It went really well the first two rounds, and I was beginning to think that I just might ace my way throug it- when the trouble began. The deads suddenly began feeling horribly heavy, and my running just got progressivly worse (and it's ugly from the get go)..

My time: 35:49 min

I would like to think I could do this faster, but that was all I had to give today!

After this followed a day of rest and a very sore lower back! It has been way too long since I could work out like this and actually follow the main page, so I'm loving the sensation of kicking my body back on track!

Todays WOD was a funny combination, that I don't think I have done before:

Shoulderpress 21 rep at 75 lbs (I went with 35,8 kg on the first two sets, and then scaled down to 33,6kg. Jenny and I worked out at Haga where they have some strange weights)
Back extentions 21 rep
7 rounds for time!
Needless to say the sensation of this baby- was to have every little bit of strength leave your shoulder, and then find that there is nowhere to find the momentum to force out the last reps! Or put slightly less elloquent- getting you ass kicked with such a pathetic weight!

My time 21:06

For now that is all, but I hope to be back tomorrow

Much love
