Helen and other WODs

WOD#68 sit/pullups 21-18-15-12-9-6 with 100fr Lunges between 25:10@148/174
The lunges got progressively harder, especially to keep balance. Also the pullups were brutal and I could only do them in set of 3 most of the time. I quite like this style wods which are quite hard to start with but decrease in reps making them more even in effort over the whole wod. I also tried something new on BOSU, looking at watch instead of floor making it harder AFTER an intese workout.

WOD#69 DL 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 (95#, 115#, 135#) BODYWEIGHT!!!
I think this is probably the first time in my life that I lefted anything bodyweight exept body (mine or otherwise), Pretty cool. It wasnt super hard but I decided not to push luck past 135# for now. An obvious PR.

WOD#70 Helen 3 x (400m, 21x40#KBS, 11PU) 19:16@169/188
Quick but exausting workout. The HR averaged at 169 which aint bad for 20min workout. Interestingly enough the max HR peaked at just 188bpm despite the three 400m runs. I think it has something to do with quick stride and full control of the runs. The pullups were hard as usual but I did them in two sets each with first set.
Technically I missed out on one pullup per round (not a biggie). Also for KB swings (Rx 54#), I couldnt trust myself doing anything more than 40# right after the 6min/mi run, especially since I had to hold it over my head:-)
