Today

Today was a blah day for me just getting allot of stuff ready for our trip so i took a rest cause I've been tired. I need to stop slacking, but I'm actually looking forward to tomorrow's WOD, been wanting to get some Pull ups in cause my hand feels better i just need to get it back in pull ups shape, i think i was scared to do anything with it for awhile, felt like it was gonna rip open.
Unfortunately for me I have to drag myself 2miles to go get our vehicle tomorrow, but ill count that as my warm up, if my girls weren't so hefty it would be allot lighter to push.
I know you all miss me...LOL c u tomorrow.

Did some weighted pullups got up to 14.5 i didnt do all 7 but wasnt really feeling it today my upper body is still sore from a few days ago.

Weighted PU's

Ill have to do these tomorow on the rest day. today i went to the gym and did 40min of walk and jog on the highest incline, just felt like it, i used to hike alot in Canada and plan on doing some in the Gatineau Mountains when i go back.
Not sure how the weighted Pull ups are gonna work for me, im 156lbs and im hoping to at least get 10lbs and i know others are expecting me to add more than that but i thats allot of weight to lift.

5 rounds of:

135lbs Deadlifts
135lbs hang clean
135lbs Front Squat
135lbs Push jerk

My time: 29:35 ( to many breaks)

I did 135lbs for Deadlifts
62lbs for the rest ( wasnt sure what to expect for this one so next time maybe 70lbs)

Was not too easy, my forearms were smoked and grip was getting harder and harder but overall another favorite, love the muscle failure ones.

CROSSFIT RESTDAY

I had to stop there because the bars and plates the the gym are all metal and the bars have like spiky things on it that were scraping my legs even with pants on.

Not gonna try to max out for awhile on theses, wanna get used to that heavier weight with more frequency

did the treadmill for 30min, wasn't going for miles, but did the Run the n walk then run blah blah blah, although i gotta say i enjoy running more when I'm really warmed up.

WOD AND ALT

With a continuously running clock do one 135 pound Clean and Jerk the first minute, two 135 pound Clean and Jerks the second minute, three 135 pound Clean and Jerks the third minute... continuing as long as you are able.Use as many sets each minute as needed.

ALT was 5k row

I rowed 5k in 23: something
did 65lbs for the wod and got 8 for 8 minutes and I know I could have done more weight but i was exhausted today and wanted more of a cardio thing going on, wasn't feeling it today, needed the motivation.
Oh did I mention I'm exhausted from driving forever on long country roads and getting sleepy cause we got lost today.....lol.
