Long time since the last post.
I had to stop midway through the Crossfit Open this year due to a wrist injury that woudld not allow me to do any overhead movements. This injury is still lingering and is hopefully something I can take care of soon. I have shifted my focus to off-season training and for the next few months my goals in training are to get only get stronger.
With this in mind I tested a few things and hope to have some improvements on them going forward.
I tested by 1 rep max in the high bar back squat and deadlift. I then tested a Crossfit named WOD, "Helen" which is 3 rds for time of 400m run 21 kettlebell swings with 55lbs and 12 pul-ups. I then tested a 2000m row.
MY scores were
1rm HBBS = 315
1rm deadlift = 475 (PR)
Helen = 7:43 (PR)
2k row = 6:48 (PR)
I still can't support weight overhead or front squat so my training will be compromised for a while but I hope to use the time to bring up my HBBS a bit.
Tomorrow I am running a half marathon using only Crossfit training. My longest run in the past 30 days has been a 3 mile recovery run. I have ran under 10 miles in the last month. We will see how this turns out tomorrow.
