Fran, box jumps and dips
May 26, 2008
First things first, I got my first dips! I can only do them one at a time, and I only can go to parallel with the bar, but soon I’ll be doing them deeper. Yay!
And I finally timed my Fran. I’ve done it 3-4 times, but for some reason or other my stopwatch would stop, reset, or something wacky. That seems to happen a lot with Cindy too. So, my modified Fran:
21 – 15 – 9 reps of
Jumping pull-ups
45 lb Thruster
Time: 7:18
Then, inspired by the “10 things that will get you kicked out of your gym,” I did 2 minute max box jumping, 2 rounds. First attempt was 52, second was 65 on a 12 inch box. Next time I’m grabbing the 24, because I was NOT asked to leave. =) I must have a good gym. One lady did comment, “I’m getting tired watching that!” right around the 1:45 mark.
I can tell I got a good workout today because I cannot type for the life of me. I’m making around 2 typos per sentence, thank goodness for Firefox’s auto spell-check!
