(Slightly) Overgrown warm-up

Still not quite a hundred after the weekend stomach bug so I decided to meander through some of the things I do for warm-ups

3RNFT
30 squats
25 kips (concentrate on controlling the core, shoulders well forward to hollow)
20 x 20kg press
15 pass-throughs (Tucker's shoot-throughs, Parallette Shoot-through" with Jeff Tucker - video [wmv] [mov], without the press-up and dip)

I should have done the handstand straddle practises I was playing with instead of the presses perhaps. No, probably not the best idea with a stomach that is complaining at me a bit.

Posture work I guess

3RFT
400m
25 kips as per Tucker's instruction or as close as I could get.
50 squats

18:39

Perhaps a bit of a wussy WOD. 25 kips isn't enough, I should have gone with my initial plan of 50. I thought that might be a bit too much for my shoulders given how little time I've spent on a bar lately. I think it still hit some bits that needed work.
Definitley a wussy time, mainly the run I'm afraid.

But I get a day with Dr. Romanov in  two day's time. I won't run any faster afterwards I know, but I will know how it's supposed to be done.
