Persistently Consistently

7 rounds:
5 push-press, 155#
15 unbroken wall-balls

Ran with 125# and scored a 10:58. We cleaned the weight up for each round of presses. My goal was to set a pace that I could maintain throughout the WOD, so I was a little slow coming out of the gate compared to some of the other guys (but came out the other side with a decent time). So I guess we'll say mission accomplished. I think the weight was a good choice for me since I was able to do all 7 rounds of 5 presses unbroken as well. I might have had a few re-dips, but I tried to stay as "strict" push-press as I could. I was sweating so much today that the wall-ball was hard to hold on to, redic.

Skin Juice... Yum!

The WOD rx'd:

3 minutes max reps suicide run, 10 meters

Rest 2 minutes

3 minutes max reps deadlift, 275#

Each time we ran 10m we slapped our hands on the deck and this counted as one point, then we ran back 10m and slapped again. Back and forth, back and forth, back and forth... you get the idea. My total count was 48.
The fastest 2 minutes of my life then passed and the next thing I know I'm pulling my dizzy butt up to the barbell. I scaled the weight down to 225# to keep my output high. I pulled a treacherous 29 reps. I kept my form for the majority of the movements, but Sam did correct my "saggy-back" a little past midway. I left a puddle of my skin juice on the gym floor. I need to get Gatorade sponsorship.
