Well, I went to bed last night, fully expecting to take today off as a rest day. When I got up, though, I felt pretty darn good and ready to do a workout, even if I might have to scale it back a bit. I did not want to undo that all the great massage work I got yesterday, especially on my shoulder. The WOD was 30-20-10-5 back squats (women's Rx 115lb), pull-ups, kettlebell swings (women's Rx 45 lbs), and straight-leg sit-ups. I scaled to 80 for back squats, 36 for kb swings, and band-assisted pull-ups. Good workout, 23:52 ... not too much, left feeling challenged but not destroyed. I would like to work on up-ing my back squat weight, but today wasn't the day since I can still feel all the squats from my workouts throughout the week. Also, I need to set aside some time to practice kipping. Damned if sometimes I feel it and sometimes I don't!
Also, clothes shopping for my new Beast Girl physique is frustrating. I'm not complaining, mind you. I'll take strong, difficult-to-clothe muscles over weak skinny little limbs anyday. Still, that might be a WOD I have to conquer this week -- find slacks that fit my tiny waist but relatively large glutes and thighs -- AMSAP (as many stores as possible) before failure. And, as with all WODs, tears are optional. :)
Sounds like your clothes shopping is going to be more of a challenge than the workouts have been. Good luck on that!!
