The worst part about hurting yourself is not knowing how exactly you hurt yourself. There was no particular moment where the hurt happened, it just.. started happening. And it was well after the workout. I had nothing to go off of. Sucked.
The WOD:
12 min amrap
200m run
5 strict burpees
10 push press (135/95)
15 deadlift (135/95)
So.. I RXed this shit. All the way down to the running and strict burpees. Planky plank legit push up burpees. They were actually pretty great, because I personally couldn’t bang through them, so they didn’t wear me out. Yes, please!
200m run, yes I ran! Wow..
The push press at 95 was actually a little difficult for me, but I did it anyway. I’m used to jerking when the weight gets a little heavier, but jesus, my push press PR is like I dunno, 50, 60? 70? lbs more than this. What’s the problem? Whatever.
And the DL weight was a joke. EASY PEASY.
So of course I hurt myself. How? No idea. But after the WOD I felt a tightness in my left trap, sharpness around the left side of my spine, down to my shoulder, so awesome. There was nothing I could do except wait it out. It got so tight that I couldn’t turn my head very far left or right, and any weight on that part of my spine (hanging my head a certain way) was sharp and excruciating. Sleep was also lots of fun, as every time I moved, I obviously had to bring my head with me.
Here we are, I write this literally 10 or so days later and I actually still have the pain (but I didn’t stop working out.. hmm..)
Anyway, I RXed that shit. And well, you know, that’s all that matters.
