Bench Press, Pull-ups

Opened day with Bench
10 x 135
8 x 170
5 x 195
3 x 210
1 x 235
1 x 235
1 x 235
5 x 200
10 x 135

I don't know what was wrong a week or so ago.  This just ate me up.  I blew threw it today.  I think I might try the next level up next time.

WOD
For time:
100 Pull-ups

Splits
1 -  44.16 seconds - First 30 were unbroken.
2 - 7:29 for the next 70, broken into mostly sets of 10
Total time - 8:14

My hands held up till the last 15 or so I even think that the last 2 were the ones that tore me up.  My hands ae on fire.  Daniel ripped open one and had two coming.  I felt one rip deep on my right hand and another under a callus.  Thought that was it until my hands got feeling back.  I then found a total of 5.  With my bicep injury I have not done much in the pull-up category.  This one ate me up.  I am almost positive with a kipping pull up before the injury I was doing 50 plus or so unbroken.  This was prescribed for a kip.  I think my dead hang pull-ups were a help for sure.

Part 2 - I had to help several people and ran with a few of the little ones that were there. 

Took splits but they were worthless.

Back Squat, Weighted overhead lunge, GHD's

Back Squat  Power Matrix for 240-245
5 x 135
8 x 165
5 x 190
3 x 200
1 x 225
1 x 225
1 x 225
5 x 195
5 x 135

Did this very easily.  I have just been very cautious with anything putting pressure on my back.  My strength seems to be coming back since hurting my back in November.  I am still just being super cautious.  I will try moving up to the next level next time.  All squats are parallel or below.  The 225 were below parallel.

For time:
21-18-15-12-9-6-3
45lb Overhead Walking Lunge
GHD's
Splits
1 - 1:28
2 - 1:33
3 - 1:29
4 - 1:17
5 - 1:08
6 - 1:00
7 - :40.13
Total time - 8:38

Had a good time with this one.  I am pretty worn down.  This is my 7th day in a row.  I had a hard nap for 2 hours after the workout yesterday.  This one was fun because Daniel is faster at the lunges and I am faster at the GHD's.  Daniel would pull away on the Lunges and I would catch him on the GHD's, so we were finishing the first few rounds together.  He pulled away at the 9.

Back Squat, SDLHP, Push Jerk

Back Squats all parallel or below
5 x 135
8 x 160
5 x 190
3 x 205
1 x 215
1 x 215
1 x 215
5 - 185

For time:
21 - 18 - 15 - 12 - 9 - 6 - 3
Sumo-deadlift High Pull
Push Jerk
I jacked the splits up.  I combined a set or two and I am not sure which is which.  This is my best guess
SPLITS
21/18 - Combined - 1:07 this seems crazy fast but I am almost positive I did not hit it.  Daniel and I were moving.
15 - 1:02
12 - 1:08
9 - :55
6 - 1:16
3 - 13.06
TOTAL TIME - 5:42

To look at the splits again makes me think something is really messed up.  Oh well I was just thinking the other day that Daniel and I had not done one side by side tp push each other.  This definetly fit the bill.  He finished 20 seconds up on me, but we were rep for rep on and off during the WOD.  My grip was fried after this one.  My forearms were on fire for quite a while.

Squats actually felt pretty good considering we have not squated for a while.  We also did some tall box jumps after each set of squats this was suprisingly sold feeling.

PM WOD - Dumbell Thrusters, Ring Pull-ups, Dips

For Time:
15 - 12 - 9
45lb Dumbell Thrusters
Muscle-ups

Splits
1 - 3:14
2 - 3:36
3 - 2:58
Total time - 9:50

Pretty tired from this am.  My bicept injury is still pretty prominant.  I can not do overhand pull ups.  They light that thing on fire.  I seem to be able to exist if I stick to curl type pull ups.  This in turn has caused my pull ups to suck since I can not do them very often.  

AM - THE ABB RIPPER

3 Rounds
400 meter run
50 Butterfly sit-ups
15 Dips
50 Sit-ups with a twist
20 Body Squats
50 Crunches
1 Wall Climb
AT COMPLETION OF ALL 3 ROUNDS COMPLETE THE FOLLOWING
20 Right side Tire Slams
20 Left side Tire Slams
20 Toes to bar

Splits
1 - 8:47
2 - 10:38 Had to get my bike out of the truck for Jordan and adjust the seat.
3 - 10:55 Ha, no excuse here just sucked it up.
Total time - 31:21

This was designed to rip the abbs and it got that done.  I am typing this a day later and feeling it.  I actually felt good first and second round.  Third round it was all I could do just to throw my torso up and complete the reps.  What fires me up the most is my lady runners asked for an abb ripping workout.

Bench Press, Then BARBARA - Jump rope, butterfly sit-ups

Power Matrix - I went up because I (as they say) mastered the weight last time.  I am exhausted for some reason and really struggled with my 1 rep sets today.  Not sure why other than the fatigue.  Everything was smooth till the 3 sets of single reps.
8 x 135
8 x 170
6 x 195
3 x 210
1 x 235 stalled but got it.  Butt stayed on bench.
1 x 235 failed
1 x 235 both Daniel and I were nervous because of the last set.  I got fired up and when I stalled Daniel put a bit of pressure on the bar.  I fired through the finish.  So I did it with help.  A few months back I was doing 230, 3 times.  Chalk up to bad day.
5 x 200

WOD
BARBARA
For time:
50 - 40 - 30 - 20 - 10
Double unders - I did singles as usual and doubled the number.  Heavy plastic rope as usual.

2 - 1:38
3 - 1:13
4 - 49.62
5 - 26.97
Total time - 6:08

I did get a few double unders.  I have to do these when fresh or I come down to hard and my back gives me fits.  Nice fast burn.

Did this with kids in the AM.  Sweat like crazy.  Great workout and fun to be out with the kids.  Ran in my Vibrams.  My pace was slow today.  I think the amount of running I have been doing is taking its toll.

I racked the squat on my back and the time expired.

Not a bad evening workout considering this morning hammered me.  The AMRAP squat was supposed to be 225 but both Daniel and I are on back saving mode.  We both lowered.  I went 135 and he was 185 I believe.  Over all I am pretty fired up.  Two WOD's today and I feel pretty decent.  Back has been a little sore I think from the running element this AM.

Run, Body Squats, Push-ups, Lever-pulls, Iron Cross, Lunges

20 - Iron Cross
40 - Lunges

Total time - 30:42
First split was - 7:49 I forgot to hit it the other rounds.

This one put the hurt on me.  I can only guess the running is what did the trick.  By round 2, I was hurting.

4 - 2:06
5 - 2:13
Total time with rest - 13:27

Daniel came up with this one and both of us thought this would not be very bad.  Boy were we wrong.  Round 3 smacked us both in the face.  Total survival from round 3 on.  We both were struggling with the plate push.  This is usually one of my strong points.  Not today.  For WOD number 2 of the day and the fact that I am in horrible shape I guess I should be happy.  My back barked at me during round 4 after the KB's. During the 1 min rest which felt like 15 seconds I did the spinal twist both sides got a high low back pop and felt better.  Just stayed very tight for round 5.  My legs are on fire but I am happy to be on again.  My right arm is still hurt.  There has been no improvement.  I guess I am going to have to live with this or get a new Dr..  I still have yet to do the PRP because I had to take Alieve this spring for my back pain that I was having.  I do and do not want to try this at $500 a shot I am leary and to boot nothing else that the Dr. has tried or suggested has had any effect.  We shall see.

AM WOD, Run 400, KB Swings, Situps, Push-ups
