WOD#149 5 x (30 GHD/25 BkExt) 20:12@140/152

WOD#149 5 x (30 GHD/25 BkExt) 20:12@140/152 Compare with WOD#90 17:04@162/177, WOD#41 16:33@120/135 I dont have a GHD machine at Gym so had to improvise. Just like last time, I used the Leg machine with 45 degree inclination. I am not sure if this is harder or easier since at "bottom" of the sit up, you are horizontal with max torque but the middle of the sit up is easier. Also lack of leg jam probably doesnt make it easier. But its functional so works. Back extension had the same issue but I did them at 45degrees which is clearly easier. But I tried to do them fast. Also I went down using hip extension motion and back extension on way back which just felt more natural movement. So I was essenstially making circles with head in the air. All this fast swinging started causing a problem which I dont think I have encountered before. Blood started rushing to head getting my eyes red and more importantly started giving me headache. I didnt think much of it during the workout as I thought it was dehydration and drank Gatorade. But now I know that I need to do some headstands to get used to this.
