Day 2 on the Zone

2008-09-23

Quick WOD to wake me up in the night/morning (I don't know if getting up at 4am is the morning or still nightime!)

7-5-4-4-4 Pullups
10 heavy(25#) - 10 normal anchored situps and
25 air squats between sets of pullups

Total : 24 strict pullups, 50x25#(1250#)situps, 50 situps, 125 squats.

My second day on the Zone was not too bad ! I had to clear from my Zone lunch (at 2pm) to cover my partner.

When we showed up at his location he was able to yell in his radio that he was 'hands on' with his 'subject of complaint' (or 'wiry b****' on crack). So from sitting in my car, we went to 100mph, running through the hallways of the hotel to the stairs, running up 1 floor, then jumping in the fight. Without getting into too many details, we had to secure her, then escort her to our car, holding her like a battering ram since whenever she would get to her feet she would 're-escalate' her behaviour and try to kick us. So we went down 1 floor then back to our car with this wiggly 100lbs subject in our arms. Time for this 'WOD', less than 15 minutes : Intensity definitely close to 100%!! I noticed after this incident that I was WAYYYYYY calmer than the previous confrontations I had to enter... breathing long and deep, no tremors from the nervous system overload, heartbeat felt way softer and slower... I guess Crossfit helped me there !

No one was injured during the incident (well no good guy/chick hurt... )... then I went back to my Zone lunch at 1700 (5pm). My shift was nice, and I had time to finish my lunch !

Day 2 on the Zone was good. I don't really feel the changes yet but I guess that will come ! I'm so proud of avoiding drinking Pepsi for the 5th day now !
