Jerry called it a "Recovery Circuit"

Today was a good example of my eyes were bigger than my body, because when I walked in and saw this WOD I thought I could at least get 12 rounds in 30 minutes.

AMRAP in 30 minutes
6 Turkish Get Ups (I did 3 each hand)
9 Jumping Ball Slams (15#)
12 Box Jumps (5 mats)
15 Ab Mat situps

I was flying but it was crowded this morning so I actually went backwards in order but still had moments where I had to jump around. I also think I took a few water breaks. Don't get me wrong I pushed it and was sweating like crazy, my ass 'a recovery circuit'. Jerry said a good goal was 10 rounds in 30 minutes and that I was on pace for 12 rounds. He wanted everyone to post their time for 10 rounds or complete the round working on after 30 minutes and note the time. Jerry announced 3 minutes and I was just starting my 10th round, I was wondering where the time went. I tried to get through at least my 10th round in 30 minutes. I was on box jumps (probably the hardest exercise of this circuit) and yelled time, 30:03. Missed it by 3 seconds. Jerry said he should have given me a count down. Oh well what is 3 seconds. I finished first and was one of the few that got 10 rounds in 30 minutes. I have really been trying to keep my but down on my Ab Mat situps and feel like I am and getting stronger. I felt good about my work today, heading into my rest day tomorrow.

So yesterday I admitted my guilt of not really following the Zone over the weekend so missed one of my weekly goals of 6/7 days strict zoning. I told Jerry and Karen (one of teammates) and pulled a Funishment out of the bowl. As I was pulling it I said "as long as I don't get the one I submitted", sure enough I got it, a 5,000 m row! I pulled the rower out today after the WOD and did it. I was not necessarily going for time and ended up with 24:03, ok. I think my form improved as I got tired. Rowing is one of my weaker exercises but a great one and I think I made some improvements today. 5,000 meters was not too bad and I am actually thinking about doing it once a week for some additional exercise.
