As D would say "SLING SOME LEAD"

Yesterday was a busy day but we did find time to go out with Dymphna and Jess to go out to D's property to shoot which is always a rush for me because I was always hd of guns and the more I do it the more I feel like I could overcome it, gotta say its the best stress reliever. Had the pleasure of having my hubby show me how not too shoot anyone and to make sure I was shooting at the target, Oh and I also got to see Jessica in her SWAT outfit.....lolol....love ya Jess sorry. Thanks Dymphna.

Well I'm doing nasty girls today and I'm hoping to get good time cause Ive been feeling like I'm dragging bricks lately.

Ran at the track today with the hubby and it was 2miles didnt keep time but i did it without stoping so thats good enough for me and did push ups and lunges.

Couldnt get to the gym today we had a busy day.

STUCK IN A RUT

yeah yeah ! Ive been slacking on my updates but to tell you the truth I'm not making any amazing PR's lately and I still feel mentally beat down from so many things and I hate that it's making me feel this way, like Michelle said , we are so worn out from some nasty WOD and some of D's alt lifting, i think that maybe i need a mental break which is hard to get, since my toddler is stapled to me, again its JUST A PHASE RIGHT???

Well I'm hoping that these blues that I'm feeling go away, cause i wasn't even excited about getting a PR on FS today (120lbs) usually I'm over the moon.

I realized today that I gotta stop going in on rest days and actually take the rest, and start incorporating other things like I said I would, but again there's a mental wall blocking me right now, at least my hubby has been dragging me out with him to the track sometimes with the girls to do some jump rope/sprints/jog/pull ups......now that i can at least do chin ups, i like to show off a little, c'mon i earned it.

WOD

FRONT SQUAT

10x10x10x10x10

45lbs. 55lbs. 60lbs. 65lbs. 75lbs.

think i could have started at 55lbs and ended with 85lbs, with some good warming up

MURPH!!!! UGH

THE WOD

Here's a blog that had a little info about Micheal Murph (thats who the WOD was named after)
http://fitquestblog.blogspot.com/2008/05/memorial-day.html


1mile run
100 Pull Ups
200 Push Ups
300 Squats
1mile run

if we gotta split it up do it, if you got a weighted vest or body armor, use it.

SO I convince myself to go in and do it today and I wanted to try and do the Pull ups the real way but after few i had to use 3 bands, maybe could have used 2 but would have been harder.
Me and D wore a 10lbs weighted vest and i thought we were supposed to wear it for the runs only but D told me just as i was starting that i had to wear it while doing all the pull ups , push ups, and squats, I always seem to set myself up for the worst suck fest ever.
We did it and it was hard. but the funniest thing ever was Michelle coming to watch us and following us with the camera in her car and parking in the middle of the road to take pics, shes a true hardcore crossfitter ( she did the runs pushing her kids and on a hillie road).

So our time was 1:20 something i think i forgot but ill correct it later once i get the right time from D, but i gotta say D is a good training partner cause we have about the same strenghts but when i was week she would rest and vice versa.
GOOD JOB D! till the next one.

Angie!

Meadow watching me,what a cutie!! Trying to brainwash her with Crossfit!!

100 Pull ups (i did with 4 bands could have done three, thought i would do real ones but got scared of doing 100)

100 Push ups ( did real guy push ups was down to doing sets of 5 at the end)

100 SITUPS (was the hardest for me)

100 Squats (this was the highlight for for me except i always look funny doing them cause you gotta look up and wave your hands up in front of you and pop your hips)

Was not planning on this today at all but when I pulled up to the gym D and Jess and of a couple of guys were doing it so I had to, was not hard cardio wise but it got me to muscle fatigue which I think i like better. Always feels good after...Oh and then i forgot my ID.

oh and my time was 34 min something secs forgot the time....I'm proud of it but ill be happier when i do real PUSH UPS next time.

Catching up!

Been a little behind lately, haven't been really motivated for working out these past 2 weeks and I hate that so today I went in hoping to get some Pr's and I did but still wasn't satisfied about it.

I did Push Jerk 3x3x3x3x3x3x3
45x55x65x75x80x85(f)
then went for 1rep max got 90lbs

Did Front Squat
3x3x3x3
forgot to get my numbers (need to get better at keeping track)
then went to singles my max was 115lbs 120lbs(f)

Oh and lets no forget that when I was warming up with my Push Jerks with the 45lbs I was trying to be strict with my form but its hard to do that with light weight so mentally i kept thinking the weight was heavy and slammed the bar against my chin as i was throwing it up in the air and D and kat looked over cause they heard it,. and i felt it, it defenitly hurt and right now I have the worst headache ever.........need to get motivated again.
