With the inconsistancy as of late I did not push as hard as I could have.  I still had a huge pr.  This was done just a month or so after I started in June of 2010.  I started in March of that year.

Five rounds for time of: 40 Double-unders, 30 Box jumps, 24 inch box, 20 Kettlebell swings, 1.5 pood
Five rounds for time of: 20:08
This one was tough but was a blast. We had the Bandy's and the Bayless's going all at once. Daniel set up 4 stations. Good times. First round Daniel and I were flying going head to head. It hit me about half way through the jumps we had 5 rounds so I told him I was backing down. We both had gotten caught up in the moment. I was on the ground when this one was over so I am glad I backed off a bit at the beginning. I took a bad fall on the second round of box jumps. I was not concentrating and I came down hard on my left foot at the top of the jump on the box. The box spun before I could get my right foot down. The box flipped and I ended up tied up like a goat in a fence the dang thing. Busted my right fore arm pretty hard. Got a pretty solid cut and bruse. I did not pause very long I was pretty fired up for breaking my concentration which probably helped. I just held my arm at my chest for a few jumps while the pain went away.
Jen did the workout as RX'd. She did awesome! Her Double unders killed her. She stuck to her guns and did them all. I would guess she did more total jumps than I did by half. The rope has brused her arms and legs. I was proud of her. She is still a little tentitive on the box jumps.

I could barely lift my knees after the workout. The first and second laps were horrible.  I felt like I was going to die.  Workout was brutal too.  The first round I was rolling.  The squats hammered me and I fell off the planet for the next two rounds.  All rounds of pull-ups were unbroken.  Dips were broken round 2 and 3.  Squats were unbroken 1st round, 2nd and 3rd round were broken.  To much rest time but 3 days off really seemed to take its toll.  My back seems to holding up ok.  I was just happy to be running.  I wore my toe shoes again for the WOD and run.

HSPU / Pull-Up

With a continuously running clock, do one pull-up and one handstand push-up the first minute, two pull-ups and two handstand push-ups the second minute, three pull-ups and three handstand push-ups the third minute... continuing as long as you are able. When you cannot complete the required number of reps for either exercise, continue only with the other as long as you are able.
Use as many sets in any order each minute as needed.
Post number of minutes successfully completed for each exercise to comments. Their sum is your score.
Score = 28
Total HSPU = 78, Got to 12 reps
Total Pull-Ups = 136, Got to 16 reps
Tried to get back on the bar at 17 minutes and just did not have the steam.  I just sissied out plain and simple.

Hand Stand Push Ups were sucky as usual but better than the last few times.  Made myself come to toes and push with no support off the bar where my feet rested.
Pull ups were strict until round 10 then I was kipping.  By round 14 I had to split the rounds.  Not to bad today.  Not super happy I wanted or thought I could get to 18 on the pull-ups.  Holy cow still sore from GATOR SATURDAY!  I skipped doing this yesterday I wanted to get home and see my family.  Skipping the WOD bothered my but not seeing them seemend to be bothering me more.

Did this right after I started Crossfitting (day 6)!  Holy Cow if I need any evidence I have improved,  I remember doing this one and man I felt like I was a lower life form.  Quite an improvement.  I only made it 6 min!
Sheesh!

Total Time = 29:41.06

Knew the squats and push-ups were going to hurt.  208 ring push ups, i had to do them military style to save my shoulder.  I was at failure by the end.  40 front 185 lb squats were rough.  I think I got better as I went along, went nice and deep below parallel most of the reps.  I wanted that more than time.  I had trouble keeping the bar in place I was sweating so hard.  I was hitting 3 to 2 split most of the time.  I went into this knowing I was not going to push hard and I know I could have taken less rest but man I am shot after this.  Good WOD!

I had at least 400 meters of my 600+ ride done at the 15 min alarm.  Just went ahead and finished.  I am glad I did I at least dropped my split tied for 4th fastest.

Rare time in the fall tonight.  Daniel and I got to hit this one together.  Thanks for waiting a few minutes coach!  1st Day of school today.

Over head squat was supposed to be today.  I can't do them worth a crap so I adapted and changed for today.  I love tire slams and thrusters just hurt.  Either way after almost 7 min of WOD my heart rate was at 150 at 1 min rest, 140 at 2 min and 120 at 3 min.

Did this one before practice today.  Moved pretty good I had wanted to stay at 1:00 but just could not get it done then my goal was to stay under 1:10.  I was able to get that done but just barely.  Nice short burn tonight.  Missing Daniel on this one.  It would have been nice to have him there.

Total time = 23:39.88

As usual I sucked at the HSPU I pretty much just went through the motions.  Wallball was solid, probably one of the best rounds of toes to bar I have had in a long time.  I went 25 unbroken with a tight core, that seemed to make my low back bark a bit but I have been hurting for the last few days.  Power cleans had me worried with my back being sore.  I used a belt today and just went sets of 5 but moved pretty good on the sets.  Rest was probably to long a few times.  Grip became an issue.  The burpees were what they were.  I went 25 took a short break and finished.  The rows did me in.  Went 30, 16, 14 on the round.  If I had gonefull bore on this today I know it would have put the hurt on me for a while.  I went into today with the mind set of get it done and work hard but don't blow out the cobs.  I felt weak and shakey setting things up and everything felt heavy.  Once I was into it that went away.  Shoulder and back have been barking at me lately.  Jen and the girls came in with me today.  It was great having everyone in together.

CrossFit Games Event 10 = for time

For time: 12:08.23
20 calorie Row = subbed in 45lb SDLHP Unbroken
30 Wallball Shots, 20 pound ball = unbroken

20 Sumo-deadlit high-pull, 108 pound kettlebell = 100lb dumbbell = unbroken
30 Burpees = unbroken
20 Shoulder to overhead, 135 pounds = sets of 4 maybe a 6 or so but I can't remember.
120 foot Sled pull, sled plus 165 pounds = Stacked 4 x 45lb plates and just pushed the length of the weight room.  They fell appart 6 feet from the end of the weight room.

Everything was unbroken till I got to the shoulder to overhead.  I could only string 4 together.  I might have gotten 6 one time but I can't remember.  I was at the same pace as yesterday until burpees and I got one burpee behind at the 6 min barrier.  Ashley and I completed this one at the same time.  We both think yesterday hurt more at the end but the shoulder to overhead was so slow we were recovering on our feet even though we were hurting.  Good workout.

CrossFit Games Event 8 = 6 min

20 calorie Row

Much better today.  I was actually farther along at 3 minutes today than I was yesterday.  I was 80 yesterday at 3 minutes I think I was at just about 90 today.  Today I finished 6 minutes with 135 reps.  Of that 135 the last 15 were the burpees.  I had a bit more steam during the burpees than I thought I would have.

Not a very taxing workout today.  I wish I could do the Toes to bar and box jumps faster.  I got 80 reps in, Row, WB, Toes to bar, and 10 box jumps.  Have this WOD for 6 min tomorrow.

Freeking amazing news is that I ran 1 3/4 miles at practice tonight.  We were barefoot on grass around the soccer field.  I wore the vibrams for 1 mile and the rest barefooted.  My back seems to be ok.  We will just have to see how she fairs.

From 8/5/11 Friday

I was at mom and dads with the kiddos and family.  Jen and I got up for her run.  Decent run slow bike for me I think roughly 5 miles.  When we got back I did 200 push-ups, 100 wide arms and 100 military.  I intertwined the push-ups between sets for abs.  I did 1000 ab movements.  I think they were standard crunches, rope climbers, right/left/center, bicycles, there were other variations and I have gone blank.  After that I took dads kayak down to the lake and paddled for 20 minutes or so.  Covered some decent distance nothing too stressful but fun.

Did this before practice in a rush.  Pretty solid I know I short changed the running to jump rope exchange.  I did do strict pull ups and dips to sub for muscle ups.  Still don't want to hurt my shoulder again.  Again I still have to be stoked about the deadlift.  245lbs 40 times.  I still can't believe I am deadlifting.

5 - ?????
Total - ?????

Left my watch at the house so timed on the cell phone.  Splits are not very accurate and by the last two rounds I was just wanting to be able to get the clean.  Rope did beat up my hands.  I set the clean and jerks up across the weight room on the power stations on the floor.  This way I did not have to set up and break down each time I got to the lift.  Like I stated above the 205 I got the clean but did not get the jerk.  The 225 I did not get the clean or jerk.

12-9-6 135llb squat clean and jerk

Three rounds, 12-9- and 6 reps, for time of:

135 pound Squat clean and jerk
Muscle-up - subbed in 2 pull-ups and 2 dips for every muscle-up
Rounds
1 - 3:58.77
2 - 5:22.09
3 - 3:00.85
Total - 12:21.71
I know I can do the muscle-ups I even set up the rings.  I hurt my shoulder so bad several months back they are just in my head.  I could swing up and start my turn over but just could not finish.  To scared I am going to get hurt again.  Very frustrating.  I am so out of shape with the dips they ate me alive.  I did the pull-ups unbroken.  Just a small to medium kip and neck to bar.  Dips were broken like crazy.  These are usually my strength.  Next time I think I will do ring dips instead as well.

Daniel is going to be pissed as well.  They were supposed to be squat cleans then the jerk.  He was doing them and I had in my head they were just clean and jerks.  I am such a moron.  Sorry Daniel.

Run 800 meters x 3

3 = 3:29.11 = 1600 meters

Daniel and I met early this morning at 7:30 to beat the heat.  Yesterday was 111deg.  I was on my new to me mtn. bike.  It did not seem to make that big a difference on time but I was robbing myself a ton of recovery trying to start with Daniel.  I got an awesome burn today with this WOD.  I had wanted to use my road bike to see how much a difference it made when I got tired.  There was a 4inch hose under pressure across the track that gave the mtn bike a pretty good jolt so I figured there was no way I could give the road bike a try today.  Hopefully next time.

Daniel and I did this at that track today at 1pm it is unseasonably warm today sun out and 60 degrees. Supposed to get hammered by snow Monday night though. On to the work out. My goal was to bike as far as needed to finish with Daniel so our recovery was the same. He blasted the first one so I only got 3 laps = 1200 meters but we finished 1 second appart and I was flying to catch him. Great job Daniel. The next two were rough on Danile so I blasted the mile and we finished together. Legs were toast after this one back is feeling better but still sore between shoulder blades where I hurt it last Sunday and for some reason my lower back where I have all my problems has been barking at me a bit. Just sitting here my left leg and foot hurt. Good workout and a great day!

Just ran out of steam on this one.  Don't know if it was from the WOD a few minutes before or not.  With as bad as my shoulder has been I was just happy to be able to get it done.  All dips were below parallel on the arm.  Either way I am happy a very productive day in the weightroom.  I would have liked to cracked 100 but it was just not in the cards today.

"Jackie"

1000 meter row = subbed 45lb SDLHP x 100reps
45 pound Thruster, 50 reps
30 pull-ups
Row = 2:12.36 UNBROKEN
Thruster = 1:56.36 Never put bar down but had 3 pauses.  probably 10 to 15 seconds a pause.
Pull-Ups = 1:25.94 broken 15-5-10
TOTAL = 5:34.68 PR by 1:48 not bad but should have been way better.

I was excited for this one last night but when I got in this am not so much.  I still have to be happy but I wanted under 5 min.  I am sure the pauses in the Thrusters and obviously breaking up the pull-ups did not help.  Daniel and I were right together through the SDLHP's, he got maybe 5 to 8 reps up on them at the end of those.  The thrusters I should have been able to stay with him.  The pauses were the death of me they might have even been longer than I thought.  Either way I was at 4:08 finishing the Thrusters and Daniel came off the pull ups at 4:11.  Obviously I fell appart on the Thrusters and pull ups.  When I hit the ground after the pull-ups my arms were cramping like after fran and some of the others.  The combo of pull-ups and SDLHP fried my biceps.  After about 10 min or so I did the dip workout from yesterday.  I will post it above.

Pull-Ups = 1:37 broken I think 15-8-7
TOTAL = 7:22.03
Bayless was right, this one burnt. I did not go as hard on the SDLHP because I am just getting back after so long off. The Thrusters were not as bad as I had played them out to be in my mind as I had worked through this in my head. I broke them up more than I should. The pull-ups could have been stronger but when I finished I hit the ground and I could not move my arms. They were fried. Better description was that they were burning like your legs would from lactic acid after a hard race. I know I could have broken 7 min today with better planning and more confidence. Still got some good work done, for the road back. I have now surpassed total number of work outs in the last 8 days than I did all of October
