I was gonna do a DU/KB swing WOD after, but after one round, my lower back started sending warning signals.  So I went inside and did an AirDyne bike ride while watching UFC Embedded (about 6 minutes).

CrossFit Kelowna: Death by AMRAP

While on vacation, I finally got around to doing some actual exercise, with a visit to Kelowna CrossFit.

I did it, following a day in the sun which later gave me a hellacious sunburn because I'm an idiot who has never heard of sunscreen.

Yeah, that's not a colour humans should be. 
I also didn't eat all that well that day.

But, mostly, I just haven't been working out that much recently, so the workout kicked my ass to the point where the owner/coach (a nice dude who's name I can't remember) repeatedly asked me if I signed the waiver.


5 minute AMRAP
5 power cleans (95 lb)
5 thrusters

7 minute rest

10 minute AMRAP
3 deadlifts (225 lb)  - rx'd was 275 but fuck that.
1 round of Cindy

5 minute rest

7 minute AMRAP
7 burpees over bar
7 hang power snatch


I didn't record my individual results for each round, but my total was 249 reps, which is pretty goddamn terrible.
