CFSB PM WOD--I AM AN IDIOT

Get to the gym and the wod is

1-1-1-1-1-1-1 Deadlifts. But I had done them earlier today. So I warmed up practicing muscleups . . .

I can now almost always get the first one. I was a bit wore out and the transition to the second wasn't happening. So I did 5-6 from the bottom full turned out to a muscleup.

Then I figured I'd do the DL wod to see where I was.

I figured I'd stop at 260

So I put on the kilograms

70-80-90-100-110-120-130

But in lbs =

154-176-198-220-242-264-286

So I get done with the 110kg, load up the 120 and little Chris says: Okay so that's 264. I'm on crack because I was thinking kgs are about double pounds . . . they are . . but remember the 0.2 kids! It adds up. But since the 110k went right up, stepped up to the bar for the 120, it went up so I went for the 130. PR. 286lbs. Still. I got there by being a math idiot.

Yeah, it's nice, but gotta tell you, been doing it for 10 years and not once has a standard to metric conversion ever once come up . . .
