Now that we're getting ready for Fight Gone Bad, we're doing a little be more met-con, and today I felt like was the quintessential crossfit wod:
2 rounds of:
4 min Tabata squats
4 min AMRAP muscle ups
4 min rest
I had to sub out for the MU's so I did the 5 pull ups, and then I did 5-10 push ups for each MU. I don't think the shoulder is ready for dips yet, so I did push ups, and then started doing pushups on my knees since I was afraid of hurting my shoulder. I think my scores were 66/60 for the rounds, 11 squats X 6 rounds of "MU"'s and 12 squats X 5 rounds. pretty sad, really.
As I write this I think I'm experiencing some discomfort in the shoulder, so I'm stopping shoulder work for the rest of the week just to be safe. It's easy for me to cut it out completely, or hit it hard, but easing back into it is difficult. I get excited that I can do something, so I want to push myself. Hopefully next week I'll do a better job of easing into them.
I miss doing a muscle up. The day I hit mine was the happiest day of my life. Seriously, graduating, getting my first car, vacation in Hawaii, ...no other time can I think of where I couldn't stop smiling FOR THE ENTIRE DAY. I was so amped, I want that feeling again. Unfortunately, I think the muscle up was the very exercise that really aggravated the shoulder, ah irony.
