April 10 - WOD

Today's WOD we're calling the Dead Lift Ladder.

The idea was to do 7 sets of only 2 reps, untimed, of increasing weight.

My ladder looked like this:
set #1: 135#
set #2: 185#
set #3: 205#
set #4: 225#
set #5: 235#
set #6: 245# (a new PR!)
set #7: 235#

I almost didn't get the new PR on set #6. It took every ounce of energy I had to straighten myself up for that weight. And after the first rep, I wasn't sure I could do another. But I managed to squeak it out. I tried to stay there for another set, but just couldn't get the bar up again, so I dropped back.

On the whole, I am not displeased with this effort. My back is going to be complaining tomorrow though. Ham strings too.

Just the price you pay, I guess.
