I'll Shoulder Press Your Mom!

Shain and TJ have such different styles of training and I think that alternating them has made such a difference in how I am growing as a Crossfitter. Shain is this like, BAM! YOU ARE GONNA DO THIS kind of trainer that I tend to rebel against, but as I have said before, he is usually right. TJ, on the other hand, is a sneaky guy. He is like, "We will do mobility and then do a WOD" as if the WOD is an afterthought. The next thing you know, 2 pushups is killing you because you have pushed yourself beyond where you thought you could go. These guys are such a good combo and I am so in love with my Crossfit family!

WOD #25
Shoulder Press 3-3-3
43-48-48

We did this more for strength than for my max. I'm pumped I broke my stupid curse...during the three Xfit totals I've maxed at 48 and today I got it up 6 times. I looked and out of all of the people on beyondthewhiteboard, this is like the lowest score. I have GOT TO CHANGE THAT! I want to be at least in the 60s. If I'm gonna carry kids someday, I want to be able to actually pick them up! :)

WOD #26
7 rounds, 2 push ups, 4 jumping squats, and 3 power cleans.

As many rounds as possible in 15 minutes of:
2 Push-ups (red bands)
4 Jumping Squats
8 Power Cleans 43 lbs

I love using the bands. It makes me feel like I'm working towards something and not just working out.
