Weekend fun!

Well with the onset of college football, I will be hard pressed to complete a WOD in the evening after working on Saturdays and then NFL kicked off this weekend and my fantasy team required a lot of attention (damn you Cam Newton and my benching of Steve Smith and Olsen).

So Friday was a 3 mile run with 3 rounds of 15 hanging leg raises. The bottom fell out  15 mins before my run but I decided to go anyways after the storm passed but wow was it MUGGY after that shower. Got a really good sweat and was glad I did not sally up and skip this run. 

We know how my Saturday went. A couple of Sam Adams Octoberfest after work and I was done. 

Sunday I decided to try the Tabata Squat WOD. I do not really care for this WOD now. It is not on the Christmas list, lets just say that. The object of the WOD is to preform 20 secs of work with 10 secs of rest for 8 rounds and in this particular version it was 20 secs of free squats with the 10 sec rest coming with you holding the squat portion. Not a whole lot of rest at all involved with that. By the 5th round my thighs were screaming and I will not lie I cheated on the last 2 rounds a bit. The acid burn was brutal. To top off this little jewel you had to complete a 1 mile run. I do not think my legs were going to cooperate with me but I got them going and I just started to blaze it. Finished with 14 Tabata score and an 8:45 mile.
