Even though after being at work all day, I'm exhausted and want to rest, I know that in order to improve my sleeping habbits, I need to get back into WODing.
I picked Thursday to start back because it was a "Recovery" WOD which means that it's not for time and typically it's more cardio based rather than strength.
The WOD was:
50 Wall Balls (10lbs)
60 Double Unders
800 Meter Run
30 Push Ups
40 Ab Matt Sit ups
Because I am not allowed to do sit ups anymore, I replaced them with Kettlebell Swings.
Doing the WOD was both good and bad. It was good to get back to it and get my heart rate going. After the WOD I felt so happy that I chose to go, but during the WOD my ego was getting more and more hurt.
I struggled through the work out. I was slow, I had to walk, and when I needed to rest, I rested. But I finished. I know that going slow, scaling the WODs and resting is what is best for myself and baby, but its mentally hard to finish last.
Saturday I went to the WOD expecting it to be a partner work out, but with an odd amount of people I was doing it as a single. (Baby doesn't quite count as a partner just yet).
AMRAP in 20 Minutes
5 box jump burpees
5 pull ups
I did 50 BJ Burpees & 50 Pull ups.
Pre baby I was VERY close to getting an unassisted pull up, but with baby aka my 10lb weight vest, I had to scale down to the purple band.

Not going to lie, the WOD sucked and I wanted to quit, but the way I feel after makes it all worth while. I'm excited that I got 2 WODs in this week and this upcoming week I am hoping for 3.
I hope everybody had an awesome weekend!
