Today's CrossFit workout of the day was Lynn, which consists of 5 rounds of maximum repetitions of bodyweight* bench press supersetted with max reps of pull-ups. Lynn always manages to make me feel sick to my stomach. I think the shear number of reps in each superset is what nauseates me. Today, however, I was careful to take longer breaks between supersets, and I was able to set 2 personal records. The first PR was for my single-round total: 18 bench presses and 33 pull-ups for a total of 51 reps. My second PR was for the entire workout: 65 + 119 = 184. And, I did it without feeling (too much) like I was going to vomit.
* Today, for me, that meant 138 pounds.
