3 rounds for time of:

Run 400m
21 KB Swing @ 24kg(M), 16kg(W)
12 Pull Ups


Result: 11:51 (KB @ 20kg)


This was an improvement from the last time I did it on Dec 5th 2008 at which I took 12:33 to complete with a 16kg KB. I felt I oculd've done better if not for the 2 unfortunate events that JUST had to bugger my body.

1) Stomach discomfort due to nasi ayam masak merah for lunch 3hrs before training. I couldn't run fast for the fear I would just throw up. I was very cautious during the swings. I hate thrown-up throw ups!

2) Sore right lats. Can't explain what happened. Once I started the pull ups, my lats was screaming in agony! I just had to fight the pain and carry on till the very end. Even SzeNing realised I was in pain. Man. Bad bad bad......must recover soon... This cannot go onnnnn!

My goodness. This was the first time I actually knelt down after a WOD to "stabilise" my stomach. Usually I would just be standing and stretching right after the WOD! ARghhhh...this was the worst feeling ever...

Next time - no more spicy food before a WOD!!!

Wait a minute!! Does this mean spicy food induces faster WOD time???

What do you think?? Post thoughts to comments.

KB Swing at 20kgs.

Pull Ups. Sore right lats after that...

Chelsea, one of the attemptable and achievable workouts!

"Every minute on the minute for 30 minutes, do:

5 Pull Ups

10 Push Ups

15 Squats

* Complete all 3 exercises within the minute in order to proceed to the next minute. Clock runs continuously."

Completed 30 rounds!

The previous time I did it was on Oct 13th 2008, and I did it TWICE. Yeah since I wasn't too pleased with the first round!!!

The 1st round I did 17 Rounds + 5,10,10. (Pull +G)

The 2nd round I did 30 Rounds (Pull + G, 18R - Knee Push Ups)

So this was a huge accomplishment for me! YEAHHHHH!!!

After all the months of training, I got my name onto the Leader Board! :)

Well, I managed to do ALL 5 pull-ups in a row..which was GREAT! Considering the first time at PushMore couldn't even manage a pull up.

*happy happy, skips for joy*

I believe hard work, determination and the right attitude definitely played a huge role in this achievement! :)
