UGH! No mobility or warm-up today.
As many rounds as possible in 15 minutes:
10 Supine Ring Pull Ups
10 True Push Ups
11+ 7
Also did a little experiment with Geof's blood pulse oximeter, with the intent of seeing if an inhaler makes any difference to my WODs. Before and after readings were @ 98%. Feeling something not quite right, I headed to Wikipedia. And the answer?
Pulse Oximeter
Specifically under Limitations and Advancements: "Oximetry is not a complete measure of respiratory sufficiency. A patient suffering from hypoventilation (poor gas exchange in the lungs) given 100% oxygen can have excellent blood oxygen levels while still suffering from respiratory acidosis due to excessive carbon dioxide."
Which is pretty much what I was thinking. So what I really need is some type of device that will measure how effectively my lungs exchange gas, doing a before and after / with and without experiment. I'm thinking something like a Spirometer. Anyone's team medic have one?
