MO080407

Rest day

Definitely need this one!! Busy weekend!

Pullup Day!

SU080406

With a continuously running clock do one pull-up the first minute, two pull-ups the second minute, three pull-ups the third minute... continuing as long as you are able.
Use as many sets each minute as needed.


Got to 14 reps. 13:53 was the time. 105 pullups total. Slight PR. Might have been able to push 15 but will do that next time.

New Year's Resolution?

SA080405

"CrossFit Total"
Back squat, 1 rep

Shoulder Press, 1 rep
Deadlift, 1 rep

How has your strength improved??
I skipped this one as well. I just can't see injuring my back when I have so much stuff coming up. So instead I did...

"Coach Q"
Four rounds for time of:
Run 400m
10 pullups
10 pushups
10 knees-to-elbows
10 DB swings (40lb)

Time - 14:35

This almost killed me today, the runs were really slow. I banged thru the movements quickly but my legs didn't wanna move once I had to start running again.

Blast From the Past!

"Gwen"
Clean & Jerk 15-12- and 9 reps


This one hasn't been Rx'd since 2004.

I skipped it. Back is a bit pulled this week.

20080402

BRUTE Glutes!

WE080402

Five rounds for time of:
30 Glute-ham sit-ups
25 Back extensions

This was actually fun! I went kinda slow though, so I knew I got the movements right, I might wanna do this one again tomorrow. We'll see.
Time - 9:18

20080401

A Step UP!

080401

Four rounds, each for time of:
800 meter run
Rest as needed between efforts.


This is the next step from the 4 x 400 with 2 minutes rest. Should be fun!

I chose 2 minutes rest between rounds, since that's what we used in the 400m workout.
Splits:
355 - 750pace
340 - 720pace
335 - 710pace
328 - 656pace
I didn't go all out since this is a tri-training recovery week. Didn't want to push the running too far.
