Comments: Flipped some double unders. Todd said I was doing the ring exercise I could have cared less about too scaled and I should just stop and try to balance straight arm on rings. Stupid Todd. I used to be able to balance on the rings pretty good. I think I used to bend at the knee, and last night I was trying to do it straight leg? Who cares.
So anyway, this was SO MUCH WORSE then a regular Fight Gone Bad, it should not even bear the same name. It was a massive struggle for me just to GO to the gym last night, so I considered making it more palatable by scaling to 20s. Well, that decision became a reality after the first set of 25 wall balls, and I scaled it on all but the row. Thank. God.
I also scaled it by using a 12# ball, 45# for the lifts, and 12" box. I was so wiped out by the row on the first round I was seriously questioning weather I was going to be able to finish. By the third round I was probably only hitting about 7-8 ft on the wall balls. I was breaking every set down by 10s, fighting to do the 10 unbroken, and hunched over heaving breathing between everything. Second and third round rows I just stopped in the middle of it both times for a second, wanting to cry. It took major mental effort to keep myself moving. I can't count how many times I had to tell myself, "the sooner you pick that up" "the sooner you take that jump" "the sooner you throw that ball" the sooner this insane, awful, hellish misery is going to be over.
The bottom of my foot has officially started hurting again and I know it's the reintroduction of box jumping. Hate.
