The Oracle of Apollo Snippets from the life of Apollo Lee

CrossFit Day 101

Today’s workout was a repeat of one I did before in November. Today, though, I’m adding a round of pushups to make it more of a challenge today. Let’s dance:

Seven rounds for time:

1. 10 Sumo Deadlift High Pulls (53# kettlebell)
2. 10 pushups
3. 10 chair dips

I was a little slower this time than last time, but that is because of the extra work on my plate. I managed to average just over 2 minutes a round this time. I’m not frowning too much about my progress, but I’m confident I’ll make even bigger strides when I stop making excuses and allowing myself to bail on workouts.

My HRM: 15:30, 8:44 zone (hard); HR: 161 avg, 180 max; 206 cal
Stopwatch: 13:37.85

Rounds:

1. 01:52.46
2. 01:24.91
3. 01:57.90
4. 02:08.10
5. 02:45.12
6. 02:44.78
7. 01:44.58

• Fast round: 01:24.91 (2)
• Slow round: 02:45.12 (5)
