Crossfit: 080428

Tuesday 080428

Shoulder press 1-1-1-1-1 reps
Push press 3-3-3-3-3 reps
Push Jerk 5-5-5-5-5 reps


Shoulder Press: 125
Push-Press: 130
Push Jerk: 115

I'm assuming the ideal here would have been to move up in weight on the push jerk* but my shoulders were fried and I could barely hold decent form at 115. I was debating on whether I should do a rest day today or the workout. I sort of wanted to get back on the Crossfit cycle were I'm doing the 3 workouts in a row then taking a rest day. I swapped a rest day for a WOD on Friday so I'm off cycle now taking my rest day after the first WOD in the official "cycle". But I guessed that it really doesn't matter all that much as long as you're doing the workouts.

*Maybe not, I was looking at some of the comments and it seemed lots of people went down on the push jerk or kept it about the same as the push-press. I also didn't think about increasing the weight each time. I figured you stayed at the weight you chose. But to be honest. The shoulder press was 5 pounds below my PR. I probably could have went to 135 in the push-press so I guess the workout was better than I thought. I'm going to be sore tomorrow though. Good thing it's a rest day.
