14/3

Today I did Crossfit Open 14.3 and ended up with 128 reps while using the designated weights for the female athletes. I think this is by far my superior result, seeing how I suck at kipping pullups and olympic lifts and overhead things and double unders, which all have been part of the opens this year. Box jumps and deadlifts I can do though, obviously. The first 10 I did unbroken, the next 15 I split 8/7, the 20 I did 5/5/5/5, and the last one I did like 5/5/3/2/3/2 or something along those lines. In the beginning I alternated between sumo deadlifts and regular ones, but then I got too tired to give a shit and did the regular ones since the setup seems to be easier to me. The back was what took me out eventually, although the lack of breath wasn't far behind. Pulse never got over 175bpm, which it hasn't for the whole week, even when running. When I'm fully rested it can be at 180-185 for almost ten minutes, so it just means I'm not performing at my best, and have been feeling quite shitty this week. It's the work practice thingy, and it's about the nazi attack in malmö, and it about lack of motivation after having quit crossfit, and thoughts about whether I should perhaps focus on other things training-wise, things that are more scary (due to having a lot of inversions and plyometrics, and risk  for injury) and are also much more frustrating to learn, but will perhaps give me more room for expression in the future, more joy, and knowledge of my body. This is really inspiring:

So we'll see about that. But first - plyometric month!
