As I wasn't suffering enough between running and swimming, I have joined a crossfit gym. A local gym held an open house on Saturday, and along with that, offered a special when joining that day. Well, I love to save money by spending it, so of course I had to join.
As part of the open house, the newbies did 100 reps of wall balls, where you hold a weighted ball, squat, and then stand up and launch the ball against the wal, 9 to 10 feet up. It really doesn't sound that tough, but the muscles in my thighs have been screaming ever since, and I'm kind of dreading going back today.
On the plus side, the soreness from the wall balls did not seem to noticabley affect swimming---I made it through 10 laps on Sunday at my typical glacial pace.
