FGB Prep

This is my first year of CF and therefore, my first FGB. Harold gave me some sage advice, that this is a battle between your mind your body. He is right about that.

While I may be good at certain things - push ups, single rep max lifts - my endurance still suffers. FGB and the prep work is brutal, but it is good for me and I like it in some sick way. Todays prep was the hardest metcon I can recall. All 5 FGB stations for 40 seconds on, 20 seconds to rotate (and keep score) and 5 times around!!!!!

At one point in round 3 or 4 I felt like giving up. My scores suffered, and things got fuzzy. But when Jerry called out last round, I got psyched up and was able to pick it back up a little. Clearly push press is my best event, followed by box jumps, KB pulls, WB and then the lowly row. I have to chat with some people have been through this to make sure I have some strategy.

This was hard, hard, hard.

Score - 308. I dont know or care how that stacked up. I know I pushed through when I wanted to quit and I kept moving. That is all I can ask of myself.
