1000 Squats

Lunch

Warmup:

Dynamic leg movements
Hamstring rehab
Various leg stretches
5 squats

Workout:

1,000 squats for time (component of a workout taken from SEALFIT)

time: 41:40


Notes:
  • Body: Hamstrings are sore. Left bicep area aches a bit today, but not overtly painful.
  • Pissed about my arm hurting lately and needing to do something involving NO arms at all, I saw a WOD on SEALFIT that had a 1000 squat component. Decided to do it as a physical and mental challenge.
  • Broke the squats down into sets of 100 with 30s rest in between sets. Later sets were broken further into subsets of 25 where I would pause or shake out the legs. Knees ached in some of the middle reps, 600-800 range, but then faded. I had good depth for the routine.
  • Before starting I was shooting for a 35 minute time but saw that I was not on pace. Not really "happy" about my time but not disappointed either because I am pleased to have tackled this WOD.
