I really paced this one out. Tried to control breathing and break things up as I went along. Probably could have gotten though The next set of double unders if I pushed it. Did snatches in sets of 10 for a while then sets of 5. Did wall Balls in sets of 10 for the whole time. If I had a few days rest I think the wall balls could have gone unbroken. Day off tomorrow...

Everyone did great... Taegan may have been laying on the ground for a few minutes there... no big deal. Stanich and Tom got through 10 sets and were on their 11th round of box jumps... I did a great job doing nothing and laying around. New thing: punch Tom in the stomach. Trying to teach him to keep his abs on all of time... so far training is not going too smoothly. 

Who ever though you would miss a hand so much? 

Benton

Spent a long time getting ready for Fran... Ran out of time. It's actually a good thing because I was really out of breath for a long time. Actually I didn't really feel better until I was out of the gym which is very rare. Must be getting sick or something. Either way I just ate a Huge Plate Of Pancakes just for good measure. Fitness room tomorrow... Crossfit. 

Monday and Tuesday Week 3 (COLD DAYS) January 27/28th

Monday @ LT

A. Clean and Jerk – build to a heavy single in 15 min Built to 255 (10 lbs off pr)

3000m row
400 DUs
amrap Bar Muscle Ups in time remaining. 5 Bar Muscle UPs 

Did the Row in 12 minutes (pretty tough... need to condition more) Did the double unders in sets of 50 took probably 10 to 20 seconds between sets... not good. Life Time got some new olympic weightlifting stations... they are pretty sweet. Crossfit... 


Tuesday @ Gravity

A: 1 Back Squat @ 93% of 1 Rep Max 325, 330, 335 
     3 Sets rest 2 Mintues 
B: 1 Clean 2 Jerks Every 2 Minutes for 10 minutes

     5 Toes to bar
     10 Over Head Squat @ 115
     15 Double Unders 7 + 5 double unders 

I stared part C doing 20 double unders... not a big deal but I probably could have gotten through the 8th round. So that's kind of annoying. Really good stuff this evening. Looking forward to the rest of the week. Any week with the first 2 days off is a good week by me.  Crossfit

3 Wall Climbs 
10 KB Swings @ 55# 9 rounds + 20 

Need to get better at the max effort stuff. Mental Midget... Discovered Im pretty fast at wall climbs. Shot right up there. It was pretty easy sprinting up the wall because we only had to do 3. I am sure if there were sets of 10 or something things would have gotten much harder. I tried to pace out the KB swings and airsquats. Need to make sure my chest is staying up and I'm getting deep enough in the air squats. Also, I need to get my head through in the KB swings. Free week at Life Time coming up. Looking forward to seeing the old gang... Crossfit

I really suck at rowing. Got 6 muscle ups in a row which was pretty good. I think my PR is 7. Should have warmed up a little better and gone for 10 in the first set. Might have been able to get a PR at least. Anyway... Crossfit...

Thursday January 9 (Week 1)

New Person Workout 

Attendance: New Abby, Benton, G, Stanich, Elliott, Sara, Maddie, Jess, Bobo, Bradford, Thomas, Taegan

Remember Summer?
10 - 15 - 20 - [25] - [[30]]

Burpee 
Wall Ball
KB Swing / Dead Lift @135 20:19

There were a lot of people there... I mean a lot of people there. We had 12. I didn't work out because I did the workout last night. It was torture. Judging by the faces of some of the people at FitClub this morning, I would probably guess that most would agree with me. High Lights 

1. Lots of new people. Whenever we have new people we like to do a really hard workout to make sure they are all in. We figure out pretty quickly who wants to work and who doesn't. 
2. Taegan threw up. It was awesome. She is still having a hard time keeping her motor going, but is getting better each day. You don't get better at things when you are comfortable. You get better at things when you want to quit and give up. 
3 Thomas ripped his hand open. Again... It was awesome. 

If you are a new person, try to make sure that you are doing things with good form. It going to take awhile to learn all of the moves that we do. Start light and make sure you are doing everything with perfect form. Then we can start adding speed and weight once we get our foundation set. Good job. Stanman is leading tomorrow. Have fun!

Probably went at it at about 85 percent. it was also after a day of sitting around my classroom dreading tomorrow... dreading is the wrong word... looking forward to. There it is. See everyone tomorrow bright and early and what not.
