Upper body WOD

Well yesterdays WOD may have not been the best idea with Cindy still lingering around reminding me how much I hate her. Off to the gym we went for chest and triceps blow-out. I had hoped to raise my push press weight up by 20lbs but that may have been a bit too much. After a warm-up and a couple presses with the 155lbs, I decided to bring the weight down to a more manageable 135lbs. Feeling a little discouraged by this I set off into the WOD. The first round I felt strong and thought I was going to power through all 5 rounds with that initial pace but then the dips...wow that first set felt good but when I hit number 15 my arms decided to remind me that Cindy just left town a couple days ago and the party she had with my body came at a cost. Needless to say I finished with a overall time of 14m24s. The dips just killed me. I was having to break the sets up into 3-4-5 reps at a time to get through it. After the WOD I felt as if my arms were going to pop. Both Dan and Charly attacked the WOD with some strong intensity. Dan is no longer speaking to me this AM because of it!!!
5 rounds for time
5 135lb push press
10 pushups
20 dips
