Stage 1, AMRAP A

I bonked

Instead of a straight AMRAP with my starting weights, I wanted to do AMRAP with my current weights. Just to see. (I'm still working on the macho issues. Even though no one can see me when I work out in my basement.)

It wasn't the weights, really. My arms & legs are tight and tired, and I had few carbs after lunch (bad planning). So, I bonked. No energy = no good.
Squats: (1x10xbw, 1xOH(bw)x5, 1xfront(bw)x5) 1x14x50lbs
Pushups (knuckles): 22
Seated Rows: 1x12x50lbs
Step ups: 1x2x17.5lbs each
Jackknives: did not attempt. Did Plank x 60s and Prone Cobra x 60s instead.
Very annoyed at the pushups. A few weeks ago at TKD I cranked out 45 of them easy and 5 more with effort. (We do sets of 50.) Tonight... splat.

Step ups: that's not a typo. I got 2 on each leg.

Jackknives: I already knew I wouldn't be able to do them. So I didn't endanger myself.

I played around with some of the exercise from Stage 2--the Front Squat/Push Press, BSS, and One Point Rows--with Barbie weights. With Planks & Cobras, that's all I could remember.

Meh. AMRAP B on Saturday, and then a week off.
