CrossFit Day 38
Today’s workout was yet another in a string of CrossFit WODs that requires a weight set. I have dumbbells. Today’s workout called for five rounds of three rep sets of deadlifts. I opted for five rounds of fifteen rep sets of deadlifts, using a pair of 30 pound dumbbells. I got through those really fast and was showing a caloric burn of 70 calories on my heart rate monitor. After missing a section of my commute this morning and having a work lunch that prevented my 200 calorie hike to the grocery store, I wasn’t ready to put a sub-100 calorie workout in my log.
So, I reached under the table and picked up my 35 pound kettlebell. I decided to knock out an equivalent set of sumo deadlift high pulls. That went by fairly quickly as well, but I can really feel both the deadlifts and the high pulls in my back and belly.
My results: 9:46, 4:20 zone (hard); HR: 154 avg, 179 max; 125 cal
