NOTE TO SELF…

How does strategy apply to doing WOD’s?  Last week’s 100 Up workout raised a lot of questions for people on where to push and where to back off.  Should they run hard or use it as active rest?  Should they try to do more overhead movements with the barbell as opposed to the dumbbells?  This is a great reason to keep an accurate journal.  Whether it’s the online journal on this site or the one in your success journals, having past workouts to reference or even the same workout to reference from the past – with accurate notes is a huge help.  Even though you might be exhausted at the end of your workout, take a few minutes and jot down as detailed notes as possible. This is a game where every second counts and we get to use the gym as the laboratory for our own personal fitness experiments.  If you’re going to suffer through a workout, reap every benefit possible that you can from it – both physical and intellectual.  Anyone have any other tips on how to remember the details of their workouts?  We’d love to hear them.

We USUALLY write our info down as soon as we get home. I’ll also pop notes into my Google docs (“that sucked”, “more running”, “work snatch technique”) to remind me of what happened.
