Cindy - 100902

So the last time I did Cindy was about 2 months ago.  That time I scored 12 + 3 rounds.  Modifications were doing jumping pullups and doing pushups on my knees.  Used the same mods this time around and hit 13 + 24 rounds, adding almost 2 rounds in 2 months.  Last time it was also about 95deg. in the gym, so I'm sure that had something to do with the difference.

I'm behind the group one week on the Wendler cycle.  My body was telling me it needed a break a couple weeks ago so I did one less CF workout that week, and took the week off from Wendler.  Started the second cycle this past week, and things seem to be going pretty well.  Other than bench press, everything seems to be improving.  Though I actually did the bench a few minutes after doing Cindy (140 pushups), so that number being low is to be expected.  :-)   Results for this last week are below...

WOD - 100623 - Cindy

Hmmmmm... schedule got thrown off this week, so getting a workout in at the gym on Tue. just didn't work out. (HA - I didn't even do that on purpose. That's just how naturally funny I am. ;-) ) 2nd workout this week was Wed. evening after work. Nice to work out with some people that I don't normally see.

- Up from 10 rounds even and using ring-rows almost a year ago.



Cindy Example...

Shows a mod of using ring-rows instead of pull-ups. Noticed a lot of 'snaking' on the one person's push-ups. (If you're doing that right from the beginning of a workout, you might want to modify and do push-ups on the knees until you build up enough core strength.)
