Welcome

a space where I will rant about: baseball, fitness training, MMA, comic books, video games, philosophy, politics, society, and general assclownery.
NOTE: I annotate all my lifting as weight x reps x sets, so 200x3x5 would be 200lbs done for three repetitions for five sets.

Time constraints limited what could be done, although I was feeling like I needed a light day anyway. Double-unders didn't start coming together until the second round. Probably finished the whole thing in about 5 or 6 minutes.

WOD 11.18.09

3 Rounds:
20 Walking Lunges w/ 40lb Dumbbells
10 Kettlebell Swings @ 24kg
5 Power Snatches @ 95lbs

Time 6:05

When I came up with this I was looking to get some unilateral leg work in. It accomplished the task but I wasn't 100% happy with the design of the workout. If I were to prescribe this for a class I would probably move the RX weight for the lunges to 30 and double the number of swings. Still a decent little WOD.
