Unicorn Puke (it's good!)



Yesterday I came across the Mobility Wod blog. This guy is amazing. I had some shoulder discomfort so I searched through some of his drills. 10 minutes later I have almost no shoulder pain and greater range of motion. It feels like a unicorm puked in my shoulder socket. Wonderful! I'm definitely going to keep up with this one.

Today was a non box day. Currently I go only on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. For the days in between I hit up the anytime fitness and do what I can. Today, after doing more shoulder mobility wods I chose to do just burpees for time.  I chose burpees because the first WOD 12.1of the 2012 open was as many burpees as you could get in 7 minutes. I cut down the time because I was a little sore from a 2 a day yesterday, Metcon  in the morning and Deadlift in the evening.

5 minutes - 69 Burpees
That's a complete burpee roughly every 4.3 seconds. In keeping that pace I could finish 97 burpees in 7 minutes.

In 2012 the overall winner of 12.1 had a score of  161

The best in my region ( North central) was 148

My legs were dead from...deadlift, but 97 wont cut it. My goal is 120.

Side note, I bought a speed rope on Amazon yesterday. I can't wait to get it so i can start beating the crap out of my legs practicing double unders.

Tomorrow, I hit the box, where Dave told me he's teaching me muscles ups before class. It will be hard to sleep tonight!.
