Met Con Friday

Today's fun day was with my close friend Maddie. Working out with her is fun cause she gives her all and leaves nothing on the table. Today's workout was a long metcon:

For time:

250m Run

20 Toes to Bar

20 Overhead Squats (115/65)

250m Run

30 Hang Cleans (115/65)

30 Front Squats (135/75)

250m Run

40 KB Swings (24k/16k)

40 Back Squats (135/75)

Looking at the wod, we both contemplated whether to do a 400m run instead of the 250, but i'm glad that we came to our senses and decided to stick with the original plan. We both finished the run and i finished my toes to bar the same time Maddie finished her knee's to elbows. I was worried about how my knee would handle the overhead squats, but it felt great. Did them in 2 sets. Did the second run together and the cleans felt heavy on the last 10 reps. The front squats killed my legs and the last run was really heavy on my legs. Maddie's lower back as well as mine started feeling sore during the swings. Took me 3 sets to finish the swings and the back squats just killed my lower back. Knee felt ok the whole time but my back was on fire. Maddie finished i think in 15:13 and i brought the rear in 19:13. The back squats just killed my time.
