Sept 21

Hello again
I have been pretty busy the last week so I haven't had much time to post anything or even work out. work & school are keeping me busy and the weekends seem like they go by way too fast. Anyways, today I did a fast wod

50KTE
50 cleans 85
50 pushups
Time: 23:00

Cleans should have been faster..
It felt good to work out though. Worked up a good sweat. I'm planning on going to class tomorrow night and can't wait. Hope to see y'all there :)

Happy Anniversary M&D

Clean and jerk
5x95lb/65lb
5x115lb/75lb
3x135lb/95lb
Back Squat
3-3-3-3
As many rounds in 10 minutes
2 MU's
4 Box jumps
8 DB split jerks 45lb/ 30lb
200m run

Back squats went like this: 115, 125, 130, 135. The last rep of 135 wasn't quite deep enough though. I was still happy, 145 is my PR and I am weighing in at about 133 give or take. Squatting more than my body weight is always a mental battle for me for some reason.

I got four rounds in the ten minutes.. I went a bit over the time to finish my last round though. I subbed muscle ups for 6 pullups and 6 feet elevated bench dips (grrrrr) everything else was as perscribed.

It felt good to go hard again! I'm almost back to normal!! So close :)!

• 95 pound Overhead squat, 21 reps
• 42 Pull-ups
• 95 pound Overhead squat, 15 reps
• 30 Pull-ups
• 95 pound Overhead squat, 9 reps
• 18 Pull-ups

Time was about 26 minutes. It felt really tough, the worst was the pullups. My hands are getting soft and girly so the pullups hurt. The crease of my hip was lower than the bend of my knee's during ohs's and my chin made it over the bar each pullup. Nothing felt super hard, just my cardio was holding me back. I felt like I might meet mr pukie about half way through. It was nice to finally do a workout, although in about a month I would like to do this one again. I bet I can cut my time almost in half.. well shave off at least ten minutes.

Then I went shopping with my friend who I haven't seen in forever! We had lots of fun and spent way too much money. It's funny how I can always find an excuse or a way to talk myself into buying something. Just like tricking myself into thinking the reps are less than they are, like 20reps =2 sets of 10, A 20$ shirt is really only two ten dollar bills haha
oh what I learn from CrossFit.

So Sweet!!

Today was a good day. After school Jill and I ran 3k around the track. That's 7.5 laps. That was an interesting experience. I was going along nicely, had a great pace, felt awesome. then lap 5 comes along and i get a big cramp/stitch thing in my side. Oh man that hurt. So I had to walk for a little bit but and quickly forced myself to do a slow jog, cuz walkings gay. The stitch felt worse every time a foot would hit the ground. So the last two and a half laps were slowwwwww. Our time was about 18 minutes.

Thanks so much Jill for inviting me out :) that was a good workout to get me back into the swing of things.

Then I went to CrossFit Langley for an awesome wod.

Barbell complex 6 rounds:
3 - Deadlifts
3 - Hanging sqaut cleans
3 - Push press. (not push jerk) Looks like deadlift then hang squat clean and then push press and repeat 2x. No resting on the ground and try and up the load each round until you fail or complete your 6th rd.

I did 75-85-95 and then my heart started beating in both my head and my mouth. It totally sucked and I had to sit down just to try and make it go away. I ended up calling it good after that.

I did pretty shitty during the workouts but it feels awesome just to be getting exercise again.

Went to Chad's soccer practice today. Mom and I walked around the field twice and stopped at each corner to do 20 squats. It felt good to get some exercise.
