Catching Up

Tuesday, July 28th
With a continuously running clock do one 135 pound Clean and Jerk the first minute, two 135 pound Clean and Jerks the second minute, three 135 pound Clean and Jerks the third minute... continuing as long as you are able.

Use as many sets each minute as needed.

Since it was my b-day and didn't feel like doing a jerk, i modified the workout and only did HPC...used 85# and completed 7 rounds. I feel like i could have completed one more except my left wrist was throbbing. I know if I had tried the jerk I would have used less weight.

Riley came home at the wee hours this morning, and we were tired, but the girls were up and at 'em early on. So...we came to the gym and I copied Riley's workout (with lighter weight, of course):
Deadlift 135# x5, 155# x3, 175# x 3// SDHP 45# x10, 55# x10, 55# x10// Kettlebell Swings 16kg 3x12// Back Ext 3x20

Today, July 30th
5 mile family run...un-timed

Cindy

Cindy"

Complete as many rounds in 20 minutes as you can of:

5 Pull-ups
10 Push-ups
15 Squats

Finished 13 rounds, 5 pull-ups, & 4 push-ups...almost 2 rounds slower that back in February, but that seems to be my workout trend lately.

Run

6 mile run/walk

Lynne

"Lynne"

Five rounds for max reps of:
Body weight bench press
Pull-ups

I used 65#: 53/53...feel like my hands are started to toughen up

DT

DT"

Five rounds for time of:
155 pound Deadlift, 12 reps
155 pound Hang power clean, 9 reps
155 pound Push jerk, 6 reps

I used 85# and my time was 29:30. I've decided that weighted metcons are the ideal workout for me. They're a good balance of the mental & physical. They don't make me angry like the strict weight workouts do, and they don't leave me feeling skinny like the strict cardio workouts do. So hooray for "DT"! Even though my time wasn't stellar I feel good!

Deadlift

I don't know why I haven't blogged in so long, but just couldn't bring myself to do it for a while. I have been working out, just gotta bring myself to record it all:

Today:
DL 135,145,155,165,175,185,195...not feeling it. 20# off pr. Tired, hands hurt, poor concentration. Too much on my mind that while working out has been a priority, pushing myself has not been. I guess I need the mental break right now.

Yesterday:
5k Run w/ girls...I accidently stopped my watch mid-run but I know it wasn't fast, but yet it felt tough. I'm guessing it was a 9:30 pace, which is slow for me.

Sunday 7/19
Filthy 50:
Went in early to beat the Sunday rush. Time: 39 something...10 min off my pr (agh!!!) but I finished. Kettle bells and back extensions were tough for me and normally I can pound my way through those. I'm still smoked from the 120 pull-ups/dips.
PM walk with Jen & girls...4 miles.
