Gym WOD

Took to the gym today to try a WOD I came up with. I shall call it the "Donald".

21-15-9 reps for time of:
bodyweight bench press
pull-ups
135lb squats


The first round went nice and strong. Bench was a full set with no rack and pull-ups were a 15-6 split. Squats were no problem. I should have went with a body weight squat to really push myself and next time I will. The second round was good until the 10th rep on the bench. I barely got the weight racked as my arms were giving out. I had to wait for my friend to come back to spot me the last 5. Good advice here, ALWAYS have a spotter. Finished the final round at 12 mins 34 secs. Now I believe I could have shaved a couple minutes off that if I would have kept a spotter the whole time but you live and you learn. Its funny how I have been herded into thinking that there was only one way to workout and now that my eyes are open I look for other ways to achieve goals, to push myself and to basically get out there.
