Games Prep WOD – 12.09.09

5 rounds:

• 21 KB swings, unbroken (rx’d was 2 pood, scaled to 1.5 pood)
• 10 seconds rest
• AMRAP GHD sit-ups 30 seconds (13-13-13-10-11)
• 3 minutes rest

Then, 10 rounds:

1 minute max double unders, 30 seconds rest (59-49-49-45-32-42-36-35-35-54)

KB swings were okay – grip was becoming a limiting factor, but I got through all 5 rounds unbroken.  I probably could have gone 10# heavier and still gotten through it.  Not so sure about handling that massive 2 pood though…  GHD sit-ups were also okay, but boy do my abs hurt (still, two-days afterwards).  This was heavy/ hard, but not impossible to do.

Double unders, on the other hand, was harder than anticipated, mostly due to my arms being tired from swinging the KB, but also due to some calf muscle cramps, and a blistering headache that started on round 4.  The headache has remained with me, albeit intermittent and triggered by exertion, through present, so I hope I’m alright…
