New License Plate

I know... What a freak! Oh, well.

Intro to L-Pull Ups. Yeah, Baby!

WOD: As many rounds in 20 minutes of:

Run 400 meters
15 L-Pull ups
15 Hip Extensions

I completed four rounds using a tread mill. I started at a 9.5 setting (6:39 min mile) for the first two rounds. I had to decrease the speed a little to 9.0 (6:58?) on the third, and then 8.5 (7:39?) on the fourth. That WOD was a good, hard cardio burn. Of course, I scaled down the L-Pull ups. I did 7 instead of 15. I just couldn't lift my fat ass tonight. I know... pitiful. Oh, well - bite me. LOL

Tabata Squats & Push ups

I'm at Fort Hood for a couple days. Boy, this is a large installation. Pretty cool... I did Tabata squats and push ups, after completing my CFWU.

Tabata Squats: 15, 15, 14, 12, 12, 11, 10, 10 = 99

Tabata Push ups: 12, 12, 12, 9, 6, 5, 5, 5 = 66

I got a real good, quick cardio and muscle burn from doing one right after the other.

Deadlifts & Burpees

WOD: For time, five rounds of: 275# deadlifts, 5 reps, and 10 burpees.

I completed in 11:52. I think this WOD is my favorite. The weight felt easy. I think I'm going to hit a new deadlift PR on the next CFT. My burpees are looking better too. I just need to go faster.

Nasty Girls

WOD: For time, three rounds of: 50 Squats, 7 MUs, 135lbs HPCs, 10 reps

I'm still building up to my New Years resolution to do MUs instead of PUs and ring dips. Therefore, I subbed 4/1 pull ups and ring dips for MUs. I also used 135lbs as RX'd for the HPCs. Man, they were a little tough after 28 pull ups and 28 ring dips. Completed the WOD in 38:04.

Double Unders & Sit Ups

Another beautiful memory of Monterey... When it's cold and dreary outside, I often think of Monterey and those special times.

WOD: For time - 50, 40, 30, 20, and 10 rep rounds of: double unders and sit ups.

My first time: 15:33. Obviously, I need to work on my cardio-respiratory endurance - huh?

Clean & Jerk Day

Boy, I miss Monterey....

WOD - CJ: 1-1-1-1-1-1-1

135, 145, 155, 165, 175(f), 175, and 175(f)

For the most part, I kept good form throughout the WOD. However, I just noticed I didn't get a new PR today. On 12 Sep 08, I noted a 185 PR. I know my form sucked back then, so I guess it's kind of a good effort anyway.

For the last few days, I've felt a little unusual. I'm not sure what's up. Today, my joints and muscles ached. I hope it's not menopause. Ha! Ha! If I start getting hot flashes, I'm going to the doctors. LOL

I'm sure it's just a moment of weakness, which will pass.
