Badger with No Buzz

Friday, November 7;

What a bad idea. I have my coffee pot set on an automatic timer, so it begins brewing right around 5:45. The smell wakes me up, and then actually drinking it wakes me up even more. Today the coffee pot brewed my coffee like usual, but for some reason the act of me actually pouring the coffee/cream/sweetener did not happen. I was really dragging ass while getting ready, so by the time I realized that I didn't have my coffee with me it was too late.

I figured I'd be fine, until I got in to CFOT and realized what the workout of the day entailed. Badger. Almost immediately I decided to sub out the pullups. My body still hasn't healed from the Election Day workout, and I am just generally exhausted from this week. I did KB High Pulls instead. It doesn't compare to pullups, but it was just fine to get my heart going.

This workout should take between 35-40 minutes. Today, it took me over 50 minutes!! I've never rested so much during a workout. I've always said, "if you're talking during a workout, you're not working hard enough." Well, today I wasn't just talking I was holding complete conversations. Shame on me. I'll be back on my game by Sunday and hopefully kicking ass.

Workout:
3 Rounds for time:
30 Hang Squat Cleans 65lb
30 Sumo DL Highpulls 45lb
800 meter run

53:??

You still beat me, and I wasn't talking! Ah well, everyone has their off days, right?
