WOD - Thursday, July 3rd, 2008

Attempted:

Five rounds for time of:
135 pound Deadlift, 15 reps
135 pound Hang power clean, 12 reps
135 pound Front Squat, 9 reps
135 pound Push Jerk, 6 reps


... goal was to do 3 rounds. Deads were easy, hang cleans were hard, front squats exacerbated some pain in my upper back (I already have lower back issues that actually are resolving well), push jerks were just hard. Finished round 1 in about 8 minutes, did deads for round two and looked down at this:
Between my upper back not liking the front squats and the pain in my torn callus, I took the 45lb bumper plates off the bar and finished the round with 5 lb plates (55lb total).

1 unscaled round, 1 scaled round, 14 mins.

I really wanted to continue, but I'm going kayaking later today, and I didn't want to open the cut any further. I was already bleeding all over, this pic is about 30 mins after.

Also, funny story, I go up to the lady at the front desk and say, "Excuse me, do you have any disinfectant or anything, I seem to have bled on the bar."

She says, "No all we have is this dial disinfectant soap and this," as she hands me a bottle of Windex, saying "this should work."

Hey, I am not a Medical Doctor, but I don't think Windex is for cleaning up blood. I used the soap.
