Had one of the best rounds of bench press I have had in a long time today.  I am still using a narrower grip because of my shoulder still hurting.  With a more narrow grip I am very pleased.  Workout was rough as these seem to have been lately.  At least on me.  I fell off the planet split wise in round 4.  Round 3 was not much better.  Good of today was the new boxing gloves I got trading in the others worked great.  Punching and kicks were weak today.  Strength was way down by this part of the workout.

10 minutes Heavy Bag punching combos - new gloves tore up my hands.  I will be taking them back.

5 minutes rest

10 minutes Kicking - alternating right and left

The first part of today was awful  That workout was more than I needed.  I think I just was not ready physically or mentally.  Kicking went much better today.  Right leg is getting stronger and left leg is progressing.  I hit the lower part of the bag with the metal safety bars to loosen the bottom of the bag to kick lower.  I need to do this before I punch too so I can save my wrists.  The base was packed so hard some places actually made the metal bar ping when I hit it.

Daniel and I discussed this before we started thinking it was going to be tough but not terrible.  Man were we wrong.  This one tore us up.  Both of us were on the floor during our recovery.  My splits were a bit slower than Daniels for a few reasons.  I had to walk to my start station after he finished his pulls.  I also just flat sucked at the heavy rope jumps.  I really struggled here today.  I got home and ate breakfast after moving a basketball goal for Vicki.  I sat down about an hour and a half after the workout.  I was feeling a bit tired.  I was asleep in a few minutes and was out for almost 2 hours.  Holy Cow!

I did these w/ a 45lb KB.  I remembered how much I hate doing them with a KB by #8.  I use the KB when I have nothing else.  I need to remember this for next time.  Low back is still hurting.  My right shoulder is killing me.

Just over 3 miles of this were at full tilt biking from the front to the back and back.  The end of the 5 miles the last 2 miles were as fast as I could go to catch the front group to get them their time.  My legs are shot.  My knees are pretty achey.

Back is still pretty sore.  Not horrible today.  I am feeling better daily but still having trouble with recovery.  Muscles are not feeling recovered in time spance that they normally would.  Squats were supposed to be body weight so I adapted.  I have put on a few pounds in the last few days.  I have gone from 187 to 194.

Goal was to get under 5 min a round.  I got worried during and after round 3.  Heart rate was way up there but for both of us.  I would take it during the rest.  At 30 seconds I was 170 +.  By 1:30 I was at 130, so heart was ready.
This is the first WOD I have done in a while that my energy did not fall off.  I was very fatigued but it never just disappeared.  I did not feel bad either which is a change too.  I struggled cycling quickly but I was decently steady.  Rough one but a great feeling.  One I have needed for a while.

I timed this but man I felt awful today.  Here are the times.

1st round - 7:01
5 min
2nd round - 7:09

I think I was ahead 2nd round of the first round split until I hit the leg lifts and toes to bar.  From that point on I was sucking worse than I had the whole time.  My body just felt drained today.  No energy and had to push pretty hard to just finish.  I have really been struggling for the last 3 plus weeks.  I have good days but overall I am not feeling well.  Sleep has been decent and nutrition has been ok, I have even been drinking more water.  I definitely have not been eating junk, but man I don't feel right.  I did have the respiratory something for a few days before Thanksgiving.  My energy has been ok but my body does not recover from work and workouts.  After helping move on Saturday, (which I did not work that hard), I was beat up.  Sore all over.

12/6/14 moving the in laws

Drove the RV back to dad.  That seat hammers my back so I did not start off the day well.  I am still exhausted from the week of workouts.  We moved all the heavy stuff left in the storage lockers.  Once we were back we moved it all in the house.  Woke up this morning and my back is pretty sore.  Difference is it is sore all over.  Once I warmed up and rolled it out I am feeling better.  Interestingly my right bicep that was hurt a year or so ago has flared back up.  Not as bad as it was but still pretty achy.

Thursday, December 4, 2014

I wanted to fry my grip and push heavy weight on the KB swings.  I got that done but might have pushed too hard.  I really hurt bad on this one.  The KB Swings were almost more than I could handle.  Doing them tired was not a great idea.  I really struggled with these.  In the last round I could barely lift the weight.  I lifted it felt a sharp pain in my abdominal muscle and dropped the weight.  I got very mad and was able to use the fury to finish the set.  Problem there sits.  I think I pushed my back to far.  I am typing this 5 hours later and my back is sore, and my body is drained.

Turkish Get-ups were tough but not bad.  I am still recovering from something.  By round 2 I knew the 4 rounds was going to hammer me.  I started to press on the squats and my times were slipping.  I was in the CrossFit flop for a minute or so.
Good news is my bench press is coming back.  The shoulder is still sore but I was able to string together a decent round today.  Not super happy but happy none the less that I was for the most part pain free on the reps.  I used a narrower grip today which seemed to help.

This was an interesting workout.  I worked out with Spencer today.  I seem to be drained from Tuesday.  My body is not recovered, from I what I have no idea.  I don't feel tired but my strength is not there.  I am struggling with my right shoulder.  Back is a bit sore and bothering me but not bad.  During the workout my back bit me a bit.  By round 3 it warmed up and gave me no more problems.

I had planned on 5 rounds and by the end of round 2 I knew there was no way.  The GHD'S were hammering me.  Not often that I hit a workout that lays a burn down on the Abs that makes me want to quit.  I usually recover there.  I guess I got the job done here I was wanting an ab burner.

1 min rest was just a bit short.  By round 3 I was hurting and my times were falling way off.  Daniel was really beginning to struggle because he has a decent sinus infection.  I don't think he was processing O2 very well.  We rested 2 minutes before round 5 and I was able to get more of a blast on the last round.  This helped Daniel a bunch too.  We should have had 1:30 on the rest to maintain the full speed on the workout.  Good day over all.  My back is still pretty sore and my right shoulder is giving me some trouble and I could really feel it on the bench today.

400 meters of Lunges
25 push-ups every 50 meters and at finish

TIME = 20:50

Had a track workout with the kids today.  We were done early the weather was amazing so I decided on the above.  I did not push super hard today just got it done.  Steady pace or not did not make a huge amount of difference.  My legs are sore and were burning by the first 100 meters.

Back was pretty sore today but I have been stretching a bunch.  We will see how the next few days progress.  Still super happy I ran.  Felt dang good.

Wednesday, October 22, 2014

Ran!

Took the CC team to the district site.  Felt pretty good and the course is crazy fast.  I ran with the boys today.  Ran 1.5 miles on grass.  I really was never out of breath. Not sure on pace.  Back is a bit sore but I have been dealing with some tight hips and tight back most of the last 2 weeks.  Is a bit worse now but I will re assess tomorrow.

Two totally new exercises.  Daniel was on today with inventing new stuff.  Writing out the workout I was convinced 2 min would be too much rest but by round 3 it was barely enough.  This one toasted my bacon.  Great workout.  I am going to try and take a picture of how the ab looked and the ring plate drag punches so I don't forget.  These were great and sucked at the same time!

Moving the In laws day 2

Continued for most of the day moving my in-laws.  All the heavy stuff is mine this weekend trying to get it out of the house.  Not bad, but I can tell I have been having to move the heavy stuff on my own.  Parts are just a bit achey.  Back is just a bit sore as well.

Saturday, October 11, 2014

Bench Matrix, Thrusters, Hang Clean, SDLHP

Bench Matrix, Best one I have had in a long time.
10 x 135
8 x 175
5 x 205
3 x 215
1 x 245
1 x 245
1 x 245 - slow, almost stalled out.  Daniel was a split second away from helping and some how it started moving again.  It is awesome having a spotter that knows their bud.  Wish I could say the same.  I pretty much jacked up his bench press today.
5 x 205
10 x 135

20 Minute AMRAP  8 rounds and 5 Thrusters, 7 Cleans in 20 min, finished 9th at 21min.
5 x 95lb Thrusters
7 x 95lb Hang Clean
10 x 95lb SDLHP

I did have splits but I did not have my watch with me and used my phone.  The dang thing for some reason cleared them out even though I did not stop the function.  So much for smart I phones.  Sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This one was a rough one.  I was pretty worried about the SDLHP.  I only went to my thighs the first two rounds till I could feel my back was warmed up.  I then went to the floor with it from then on out.  Using a solid hip thrust to get it off the ground.  I will see how my back holds up tomorrow.  I really felt no pain.  Other than the workout, and with that there was plenty.

Concerning Daniels bench set that I screwed up, and why I was all jacked up.  I wanted to write a note to remind my self.  I was out in the parking lot next to the truck about 50ft from the power pole.  I heard a pop and a noise like an arc welder.  There was an arc of electricity shooting out of one line connect to another at least 2 feet long and looked to be about 8 inches across.  All you have to do is see that to realize how much power is surging through those things.  Jen came by and said they saw it from the intermediate and Jenni texted Daniel and said they saw it at the primary.  Pretty dang scary.  It lasted long enough that I started to back pedal to the back of the truck just in case it blew.  At first I thought it was a lightning strike.

Turkish Get-ups, crunches

3 Rounds for Completion
10 Turkish Get-ups alternating arms, 45lbs bar
50 Crunches

Supposed to be day off but came in to get Darrin his last day for the week.  Nice little WOD, Turkish get ups suck so to be able to do them in a nice controlled pace and workout was nice.  

6/18/14 Partner WOD

Metcon was a Follow-The-Leader WOD.  It consisted of three men, me, Daniel and Darin doing three rounds of the workout.  Each man would lead the each round by doing the exercise that end destination while the other two men held a position in a isolation exercise.  This means each guy would do destination, isolation, isolation, destination, isolation, isolation when he was the leader and the other guys would do the same exercises except the destination exercise would be in the middle of the isolations or at the end.  We took a three minute rest after each round.
3 Rounds of:
The exercises were: (Destination, Isolation)
Two down and backs on the sled with 50lbs + 3 Burpees
Back extension holding chest up
Ring dips holding in the top straight arm position
30 butterfly sit-ups
Hold in the top of a push-up
L sit hanging hold
3 min

This was more of a go through the motions workout.  Interesting design, something to think about for a later date.  I am so beat down from the last 2 plus weeks I was not complaining about this at all.  I did fail out on the ring holds 2 times having to get back up.

Posting this a week plus after doing this workout I can honestly say this was a tremendous drain on the system.  The dead hangs were tough but the Supline rows put the hurt on me for easily 5 days.  I tried to do some workouts that engaged the upper torso just to be able to warm them up enough to move them.

WOD was Death by Ball slam.  So 1st minute was 2 burpees + 1 ball Slam, 2nd minute was 2 burpees + 2 ball slam, 3rd minute has 3 ball slams ...

 Daniel and I did this for 41 minutes.  Both of us were really hurting by the end, Daniel said he wanted to get to his age and I started thinking I would like to hit mine.  It was great Daniel stuck with me to the end. Daniel said if his life depended on it, he could have done one more.  I have to agree but man this was a rough one.  I some how got out of this one with no blisters.

Total was 82 burpees and 906 ball slams.  I felt this one for days.

A good workout but can't remember most of it.

Some time in Early May ROCKY WOD

 Pulled out the heavy punching bag
Cant remember how many rounds but here is a rough estimate of what Daniel and I did.

I think 4 rounds
10 Right Jab
10 Left Jab
10 Right kick
10 Left kick
20 yards Rope duck unders
15 or 20 GHD's
Jump rope ????/

I can remember this being a nice change and something we had never done before.  Possibly Daniel will remember some of the foggy areas.  There were a few workouts before this that are just gone.  I remember this one because it was so different.

Here we go again.

This year has been awful for not only working out but also posting.  Technology in my life has been awful.  My cell phone some how has lost the last month of workouts that I have done.  Not that there was stellar workouts but just not having them to post hacks me off.  I am going to piece what I can remember back together.

Did this one a few weeks back and I hurt my back in round 3.  I love the burn on this on so I wanted to hit it again.  Good solid workout.  Heart rate was in the 180s at 1 min in the rest rounds and at 130 with 40 seconds to go.  At the end I was at 190 at 30 sec.  Heart rate dropped 10 beats every 30 seconds roughly.  Heart was at 130 at the 3min marker of rest.  I sure did not feel like it but my heart was ready for round 5.  Very pleased with effort today.  After clean up I hit another 20 toes to bar.  So I ended with a total if 100 toes to bar for the day.

My girls thought this was funny. What was left of me after the workout.

Donated blood today, so I am down a pint.  Did not want to push very hard.  I walked between stations.  I hit my gallon club marker today with the blood drive.  Since I was not pushing at all I am really surprised that I got faster each round.  Some of it was that I was getting out of breath but I started cold and was getting warmed up as I went.  I had a good rolling sweat going by the end.  I kind of kept waiting for the lack of blood to hit me and it did not.

Armageddon

Armageddon
100 Pull-ups - 8:37 - 20 then sets of 10
100 Toes-to-bar - 14:06 - by the last 20 I could barely hold onto the bar.  Did in sets of 10 after 1st 20
100 Front Squats - 7:19 w/ 45lb bar
100 Burpees - 19:07 - sets of 10 and 20, should have gone faster here
100 Rope Climbers - 2:26 - ab movement on floor reaching for toes arms start at chest and finish and extended toes
100 sec Wall-sits - 2:50 took this long to get 1:40
100 Push Press - 5:56 w/ 45lb bar - sets of 25 kind of
100 sec Plank - 2:05 took this long to get 1:40, we did this on elbows
100 Wall Ball 20lb ball - 11:43 - 4 sets of 25
100 Push-ups - 6:34 - 25 narrow, 25 wide, 25 narrow, 25 wide
100 Crunches - ??? Forgot to hit split I knew I would forget one!
100 Body Squats - 4:43
TOTAL TIME - 1 hour 25 minutes

Holy cow this was brutal!  I probably could have gone a bit faster but I just wanted to finish this one. It does not make much difference.  It is 3 hours since the finish and I am beat.  I will say that every rep is legit.  I really focused on every rep being full range of motion pull-ups through body squats.  Burpees were chest to floor on push-up part and full extension on jump clap.  Pull-ups were full arm extension and to neck over bar, Push-ups were deep to floor.  There was not an exercise I skimped on.  I went into this with the mentality of survival.  I knew it was tough and I wanted to do it right, so I knew I did all the elements correctly and 100%.  Proof of how tough this one is, by the burpees my legs were quivering.  Did this with a few of the boys.  Great job gentlemen!

Post work out ice bath

HEAVY Prowler Push

     450 lbs on the sled

5 Sets of heavy Prowler Push
2 x Prowler Push - 2 plates = 90lbs Down and back 2 times
1 min rest
2 x Prowler Push - 4 plates = 180lbs Down and back 2 times
1 min rest
2 x Prowler Push - 6 plates = 270lbs Down and back 2 times
2 min rest
1 x Prowler Push - 8 plates = 360lbs Down and back 1 time
2 min rest
1 x Prowler Push - 10 plates = 450lbs Down and back 1 time

Splits
1 - 32.59
2 - 51.02
3 - 2:03 this is when I decided I needed to cut a rep on the last 2 rounds
4 - 1:11
5 - 1:27
Total time w/ rest - 12:07

I hit the split on the watch only after I had the sled turned back around ready for the next round.  During the rest I put the next two plates on for the next rounds.

I knew this was going to be hard but holy cow.  I had planned 2 trips down and back on all rounds but after the 6 plate round I knew I would not make it for 2 down and backs for the last two rounds so I adjusted to one down and back.  It was everything I had to finish the last 2 plus rounds.  When I hit the floor on the end of the last round my calves were on fire, to be specific my soleus muscles were on fire.  The pain was so bad I could hardly stand it.  I tried to drain my legs and that made it worse.  I finally just laid there and dealt with the pain.  It finally subsided about 5 minutes after I finished.  The crazy thing is that now 3 hours later they are not sore at all.  This makes me nervous for tonight or tomorrow.  As bad as they hurt I can not believe they wont be sore at some point.  The last rep of round 3 and round 4 and 5 I was pretty much to a walk pushing the sled.

Bench Press, Front Squat

5 rounds not for time:
10 x 135lbs Bench Press - more narrow than normal
5   x 135lbs Front Squat - A to G

Pretty sore from the last few days.  Just wanted an easy workout and wanted some full range of motion squats.  I was A to G on these.  Really focused on good form and very tight core.  I got loose one time and my right side lower back bit a little.  Same place as a week or so ago.  That was set 2 and from there on out I really slowed down went as deep as I could go with chest up and core solid.
