FGB Prep

My wife and I made it to the 630p class tonight and found out we were the only ones there. It was rather nice. We enjoy being able to WOD together and it's even better when we are the only ones sometimes. We skipped strength for the night so we could get out quickly though and grab a bite to eat with some friends. FGB is coming up so I was excited to have a little prep work tonight. Last year, I hurt my back prepping for FGB. I've come along way in a year and am excited to finally be healthy enough to go do the WOD.

WOD
4 rounds for reps:
 1:00 Box Jumps (20")  [40-37-32-40]
 1:00 Push Press (75#)  [35-30-25-27]
 1:00 Row (cals)  [16-15-15-16]
 1:00 REST
= 328
- Not bad. My goal was 330. I really wanted some volume and I got it. 350 was very doable. I recovered a lot better than I thought during the rest round. The 20" box makes a huge difference. In those middle rounds I had some weird twinge in my right ankle which slowed me down a lot. I stopped rebounding completely. Whatever it was it went away and I was fine again in the 4th. PP were hard to judge. I found a good groove, but staying back on my heels and getting a good rack position is going to be key. I didn't waste too much time on the row. I cranked the damper up to 10 and pulled hard, probably getting about a cal/pull. Once I got to 12-13, I coasted and managed the last few cals as active rest. I could make up some point here come FGB. Excited for a little more prep work this week. The SDHP and wall balls are going to be the death of me in this WOD for sure.
