Crossfit Day 651 – Strict Press 5 x 5 – 9/21/16

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 For Time:

18-16-14-12-10
KB 70/55lbs
T2B
100m run after every round.
I did leg raises instead of T2B, to protect my sissy hands, but I actually did run, which is a big deal for me nowadays. And of course I smashed my 55lb KB swings.

Tex is awesome.

Crossfit Day 617 – Grip Strength – 6/17/16

You don’t realize how much your grip sucks until you do a workout like this..

1000m row buy in
then
3 Rounds
3 Rope Climbs
200m Farmer Carry (70/55 per hand)
10 Hang Snatch (95/65)

I went, I did it, I hated it. I finished in 25.28, but I do recall using sissy KBs on the last round. My hands just couldn’t take it. I don’t know how everyone else suffered through that, my hands simply hated me!

Need to work on these weaknesses.. but for now, please enjoy this picture of my amazing sweet potato brownies!

Crossfit Day 601 – 5/17/16

Day 601. I feel so good about this!! I went for the 7:30p class, and I made it happen. It was an amazing WOD, which is why I made time for it. It was..

For Time – 24-21-18-15-12

Push Press 95/65lbs

KB Swings 70/55lbs

40 DUs after each round

I did 65lbs, and 55lbs, and singles. I finished in 13:16 and it was awesome. Of course, my traps and neck are paying for it today, but it felt SO GOOD to get in and get it done.
