Regional WOD

Tuesday 2011 05 31

WOD:

21-15-9
Deadlifts (315/205)
Box Jumps (30/24)

For Time


Yes, this WOD pushes you to lift heavy weight, ladies. Before you complain, please read the following:

I used to want to be thin; now I proudly show off those lines in my shoulders and abs.
I used to want the pounds to decrease on the scale; now I watch them increase on the bar.
I used to exercise out of desperation; now I crave the feeling of a sub-5 Fran.
I used to eat for comfort, now I eat for fuel.
I used to do zumba, aerobics, random machines, i.e. waste my time; now I’m a Crossfitter.
I used to think being sweaty was gross; now I bask in hard-earned sweat angels.
I used to feel insecure about my physical capabilities; now I feel empowered.
I used to seek the attention of douche bags that also sought out the frail, skinny girl; now I’ve found the man that values and appreciates a strong woman.
I used to follow; now I lead.
I used to make excuses; now I show others how to get rid of theirs.
I used to cave under pressure; now I know discipline.
I used to claim ignorance on nutrition; now knowledge is power.
I used to compare myself to all the other women around me; now I stand confidently, looking forward.
I used to dream of doing things; now I just do them.
I used to be limited; now I’m unstoppable.
This is my new definition and my perspective of what a beautiful, healthy, capable woman should be.
I’ve been permanently rewired and never plan to go back.
I don’t need to look like the girl on the cover…
....I’d rather know I could overhead squat her.

Four Rounds of the aforementioned

Count Your Reps as a collective whole


For the record, I would like to note the accuracy with which the title of the WOD fits with the WOD itself:
res·pite [res-pit] noun, verb, -pit·ed, -pit·ing. –noun
1. a delay or cessation for a time, especially of anything distressing or trying; an interval of relief: to toil without respite.
2. temporary suspension of the execution of a person condemned to death; reprieve.
Yup, that pretty much covers what you shouold feel during the breaks in between rounds--a temporary suspension of your execution--but you're going to feel like a total champ afterward!
