I had a great workout today. I did kind of a double whammy of sorts. I did what was about two met-cons. I did the Power Snatch WOD from CrossFit Football and then threw together a little triplet of my own using only either body-weight or really light loads. I felt good today and lately. I have felt strong and spirited. I don’t normally do two workouts in the same day because sometimes my body can’t handle it. As of late, I have felt better than I can remember and it has showed in the training. I feel like I can or that I want to do two workouts. I know that I can’t give my all to both of them and so I pick the one I think will give me the most return and the second workout is used as a sort of finisher or burn-out. I didn’t time the second workout but just tried to keep an honest pace.

After I was done, I still felt good. I felt a little winded but not much. During the snatch wod, I went heavier than I thought I would go. I did more than 80% on the last two sets. It wasn’t easy but I had it in me. I never truly got winded either. I felt good. The second workout, I did not time. I just moved from one exercise to the next and focused on meticulous form. Tried to push range of motion. Use that to make the workout hard and not so much the clock. I felt a little winded during this one but not too bad.

All in all, a good double workout day. I am a little tired but to tell you the truth, a lot less than usual. Good stuff.
