*8 Minute Cap
So Monday... It was raining and the gym was hot with a brand new refinished floor (we probably should have stayed off of it). Anyway, we started with some dead lifts and planks. Some of us did it on the floor and some of us did it on the rings (the rings are very very tough... for me at least). I am pretty sure 315 for 5 was a pr for me. My dead lift seems to be coming around. From there everyone PRed in Grace, mostly because I was the only one who had done it before. We had to teach bell how to do cleans about 5 minutes before he started so things were tough for him. We need to get to a point as a class where everyone can clean the weight that was programmed. However, today we picked a weight that was tough but not too touch. I used 135 (Rx), the dudes used 95, Abbi used 75 and Joy/Taegan used the 45 pound bar. We all finished under the 8:00 minute cap which was good. We will do this one more time before the end of the summer and see how we improved. It was a good benchmark day.
Chubby choir teacher update: Been on vacation so this is my first workout with weights for 8 days. I did hundreds of burpees (really hate those) and various pushups. I did sprints twice and made my knees sore both times. Anyways I did 300 lbs on deadlifts today. Probably going heavier next time but I dropped the weight at the top to protect the lower back. Planks were easy need to try rings. Grace destroyed me. Finished in 6:53....I need help with my form. See you all tomorrow.
