So much for rest days being beneficial. Today was the worst day in the gym in a while. We did some shuttle runs and after that I just felt like ball sack. Idk what it was but it felt like I was gonna throw up and all I could taste was waffles haha. It wasn't fun The wod: 4 tabata rounds Sdlhp 95# Hopu 30" bxj T2b I sat out the first round cause I'm a pussy. Then I did 194 reps in three rounds again because I'm a pussy. Fuck it, it is what it is. I'll be ready tomorrow and won't eat a hugr bowl of cereal an hour before going. Blah Finished up with 10 min on the airdyne and called it a day. I did a mini wod at my house just because: 3 rounds 20 sit ups 5 strict hand stand pushups Did it in 4:11 That last round of pu got me
Meh today was definitely better then yesterday but still not feelin 100%. Night shift blows We did some ohs: 6x10 working up to 125 for the last set Wod: 3 rounds 10 c2b pull ups 20 wall ball 20# 30 double unders Got er done in 5:51. The first round of du and pull ups kinda threw me off but it was the wall ball that got me the worst. Especially after all those ohs. Gonna go tomorrow and take Thursday off
Wednesday was a tough one: 100 burpee 100 kb swing 53# 12 min limit you can break it up however you wanted. I didn't plan well and didn't finish. I completed 100 burpees and 85 kb swings. Today was another tabata Row Double under Row Double under Meters and reps was the score. O got 2096. I sucked ass on the double unders. It broke down to 167, 170, 847, 912 I think anyway. My normal double under tabata is around 220, that was a poor showing but I'm not really feeling all that good. I didn't really want to go tonight but I'm glad I did
Being sick sucks dickhole... I was sick Saturday Sunday Monday and Tuesday and I couldn't do anything. It drove me nuts, I couldn't have worked out but I wanted to.

Yeasterday I actually did the wod. First we bench pressed Bench press 3x10 @135,140,145 Then we did death by pull ups, I got through the 16th round, shit fucked up my hands somethin fierce. Wod: 30 cal row 30 burpees 30 double unders For time My time was 3:27, I wanted it closer to 3 flat but I was too slow on the rower

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TN634EYGWA&feature=youtube_gdata_player205 Not bad but not great. I'm a bitch When I jerk. I cleaned 215 a few times but I couldn't jerk itIdk what happened when I transferred it from coaches eye to my phone but it jacked up the color
Just tried the bring Sally up with pushups. Shit want easy. I missed with 5 to go. Paused for 2 then finished the last 3. To be fair the last 8 were not pretty but it isn't easy. Fun though
there was a Crossfit instructor that came to my work last week, looking for a very large tire for his patrons to flip and move around as part of the workout. we gave him a 200lb. tractor tire.
We flip tires. We have a 400 pound one I think. I'm not a fan of flipping tires. I jacked up my bicep the first time we did it
That's pretty impressive, I'd be happy. Much much better than what I can do, and a lot better than many dudes at my box who've been going at it for years. I find it pretty easy to psyche myself out when I'm going for a personal best, and I'm not even lifting much. The best thing about crossfit is you don't have to worry about what other people are saying or thinking about your weaknesses, because they're right there encouraging you. At the moment I'm still a newbie, way behind thanks to more than 20 years of never participating in any athletic activity. My only proud claim is that I can hold a plank for more than 4 minutes. But steadily improving strength and fitness, best decision I've made is consistently attending WODs. Just have to leave the ego at the door and scale wayy down from Rx.
Dude thanks a lot that made my day. I am definitely happy with it but I'm just never satisfied ya know. When I got 185 I wanted 205, I got that now I want 225 haha its a sickness. Congrats on the plank too. That's a long ass time I don't think I could do that. Keep up the good work man and the strength will come
Crossfit is a fucking joke and you can seriously injure yourself doing it. Stick to a regular routine and you can get more benefits. I read into CF a bit ago and I remember them saying that you need to push yourself, but doing sloppy forms just to get to a number means shit. If you do a workout properly you will see results. I just got back into working out a few weeks ago, and I've been seriously busting ass at the gym and I see results already. And I'm talking about around 5-9 lifts for an hour. I keep it simple. Squats, Deadlifts, Bench, etc etc. The basic full body workouts that kick your ass. I give it my absolute all when working out (on an empty stomach mind you) and I see serious results. I love doing deadlifts, farmers walk, forearm curls, bench, squats, etc. I try to work every single muscle. If I am not completely sore the next day, I'm not lifting hard enough. When I do squats my legs are dead for the next few days, and yet I still work them. Your body is strong as fuck, work yourself to the max. Over training? Yeah eat right and that shit doesn't matter. I can barely type this because I have been doing forearm exercises day in and day out and yet my pull ups have increased incredibly. And my forearms still ache like a mother fucker. EDIT: I can barely type this yet I just did 15 pullups with no problem, but I can barely bend my forearm lol.
Terrible form. You're not supposed to sit there with it, it is supposed to be all one motion. He is obviously lifting more than he can handle. He needs to be able to do it all in one motion. That's the fucking point of the exercise. You don't pause because it's too heavy. ALL one motion. Fuckin' show off.
