No Regrets Podcast: Episode 17 (Should We Take Rest Days?)

Another episode jam pack of fun and great training information from rest day to dealing with the intimidation factor of gyms. Coach Jen's gives us another fantastically weird questions and BLITZ still hates the Kazoos! Be a part of all of it on this Episode! Questions We Answered: Hey :) First, thanks for making this awesome podcast!! It’s no chill listening to it and I never thought I could enjoy a podcast this much (never really got over the first 5 minutes of others). It‘s a bit of a longer question because of context. So I‘ve been going to crossfit for about 4 months now and LOVE it!! I did lots of sports prior to this and also played Flag Football parallel to crossfit. I‘ve realized that I‘m definitely capable of keeping a good steady pace in Metcons but I got a question concerning upping of weights. Obviously as I just started, I went to an empty bar (35lbs in my gym, dunno if it‘s like this everywhere) most of the time. But lately I‘ve been realizing that I‘m more towards the top of the leaderboard but I‘m still DEAD after the WOD (like I‘m giving it my all kinda dead). Now I decided I‘m going to lift weights in the next Metcon with barbell movements. Do you think it‘s a good strategy I‘m going for here? So like choosing a weight to be more in the middle of the leaderboard until I climbed it and then rise it again? Or what should I look for when deciding to up the weight? I’m kind of new to CrossFit and have built a routine and been consistent for several months. I went to classes and trained hard from Monday to Friday last week. Then I was so sore everywhere on Saturday morning but still decided to go to the class since I like that WOD. However I was too tired to complete it and can only use light weight and more rest time. So I’m wondering should I still go to the class if I know I will be too tired to finish it strong? Or should I just rest and recover to save some energy for next week?
