Saturday partner WOD

On Saturdays, I coach the 2 classes at my box; one at 9am and then another one at 10am. This was the fun partner WOD for today that they had to do 2 times:

Run 200 meters

50 thrusters 

Run 200 meters

50 weighted sit-ups 

Run 200 meters 

50 ring rows 

Run 200 meters 

50 Kettlebell swings 

I decided to do it myself after the 10am, but I definitely shouldn’t have worn my running sneakers for this! 

Here’s part of the KB swings…

  

It’s still one of those movements that I need to coach my athletes on- they tend to lean forward too much. By having them engage their hips and really squeeze their butts at the top of the movement, they were able to improve the technique.

 

I love KB swings, don’t you? 

Happy weekend!

Friday Morning Run

  

This morning I met one of my running buddies for a short and leisurely run at one of our local parks. I was nervous it might be muggy or even rainy but the temperature turned out to be really pleasant! It’s great to have those runs where you’re more focused on your company and the conversation than worrying about your pace. 

Also, wanted to share this delicious salad I had at work the other day. Healthy and delicious! If there’s avocado in my salad, I don’t usually need more dressing since it’s enough to add creaminess and flavor šŸ™‚
