How I’m getting stronger and improving my weights, I have no idea, but that’s fine. I’ll take the progression of it. Today we did Back Squats 5 sets of 3 reps. I did 275 3 times, which… to me was pretty crazy. That was only a little off my 1 rep max! WOD was: 3…
The ole never miss a Monday plays a large role in this one. I hadn’t done Nasty Girls since April 12, 2013. Nasty Girls is the following: 3 RFT 50 Air Squats 7 Muscle Ups (or 21/21) I did 7 bar dips, which is something I’ve never done in a WOD before. 10 Hang Cleans…
Deadlifts?? Clean and jerks? I’m in. 14 or 15 Min Time Cap, thank God.. Death By Clean and Jerk Complex 1 DL + 1 C&J (185/130) *deadlifts increase by 1 every minute* So I don’t remember if it was 14 or 15 minutes for the time cap, but I do know that I pushed it…
So, I knew that I’d be posting about this interview with Buzz Magazine, and I knew I’d be sharing it with friends and family, and I knew I’d cringe at the video of me talking (one of those things, like people hate it when they hear their voice from the outside). But I never expected…
So I never really imagined that my little website here would gain any sort of publicity or audience. Which is why I’ve been okay with discussing things of a more personal nature; up until now. I suppose I’ll have to own up to my faults and imperfections now. Which, really, I just had these thoughts…
Clean and Jerk 3 x 3+1 2 x 2+1 then For time: 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 Hang squat clean + 2 lunge + Push Jerk (95/65) Toes to bar The C&J were great, of course. I didn’t push it, and I also knew this wasn’t being recorded. I chose to focus on warming up and technique rather than…
10 Min EMOM. We got this. Power Snatch – Hang Power Snatch – OHS I believe I had 75lbs on the bar. Good times. WOD was 12 min AMRAP: row for calories 15/12 12 Box Jumps 6 Squat Snatches 135/95 I never squat snatch. I did this time! All my reps. All the rounds. I…
Back-logging a little bit, but whatevs. My site. My rules. My old Strict Press PR used to be 105. Today we did 5 sets of 5, with increasing weight of strict press, and I did 105 on my last set of 5. Happy that my shoulders and upper body are getting stronger. WOD was…
Wall Balls? I’m in. A bunch of filler around it? I will make do, but please, let me do more wall balls! For time: 1600m Row (I biked 2 miles each rowing session, as the rowers were full) 100 Double-unders (attempts for me.. I did not want to do burpees!) 50 Wall-balls 100 Double-unders 1600m…
For as long as I can remember, I have always been sad with bouts of happy sprinkled in. The happy parts never last, and the sad parts always creep back in. I have happy memories, but for every happy memory, I have hundreds of sad ones. Memories of being hurt, rejected, ignored, passed over for…
