Ben's out the door five minutes, and I'm back doing a CrossFit workout! This is the first time I've done Cindy since April 2013.
Cindy: Amrap 20
5 pull-ups
10 push-ups
15 air squats
Score = 16 rounds + 2 pull-ups
That's only one rep less than my PR, so I'm pretty pleased about that. I didn't use my previous death-by strategy, but I didn't rush myself, either. I took short rests between each movement and each set. Consequently, each individual set of movements was unbroken until the last round of push-ups.
======
Bicycle crunches
50, 40, 30, 20 per side; 60 seconds rest in between.
===
Plank - 60 seconds, broken up as needed
1 set, 1 set, 2 sets
===
Ab rollouts
10, 10, 10

Legs
Leg day with Ben.
I finally got squatting again after a long break due to my adductor injury. There was a little discomfort when I started warming up, but it felt like I'd be okay once I got going.
Front squats, just breaking parallel
95lb x 10, 10
115lb x 10, 10, 10
It felt good to be able to squat again, but I was surprised at how quickly I'd lost the ability to go heavy. I was pouring with sweat after the first warm up set!
Leg curls (can't remember weights)
Two legs
One leg at a time x 2
Two legs, drop sets
Leg extensions (weights?)
Two legs
One leg at a time x 2
Two legs, drop sets
45 degree calf raises
Two legs
One leg at a time x 2
Two legs, drop sets
Partial air squats for one minute (just lower part of the movement, not standing all the way up)
I thought I was going to lose my breakfast with this swift up and down motion.
Straight leg dumbbell deadlifts
