Wed. Jan. 14 2009

Today I did todays and the last 2 days workouts together to get caught up. I am so glad tomorrow is rest day. Taday was really bad. My Shidoshi had me lift weights last night at karate. I already hurt from the workout I did yesterday. So today I am super sore and after I get done with this I'm going to walk my dog and he can pull me through the snow.

For time 30, 25, 20, 15, 10, and 5 rep rounds of:
Virtual shoveling.
Pull-ups

With an Olympic bar holding only one plate (men use 45 pound plate, women use 25 pound plate), touch the plate on one side of the barrier then the other for one “rep.“ Barrier is 24.“


I was a puppy today as RX'd by Brand X
Puppies:

I just used the 45 lbs bar to work on form. It was hard enough with the last few days of work outs.

Now to walk the dog....

Tues. Jan. 13, 2009

Will with a combo of job searching and me being plain lazy I got behind this week and had to play catch up. Right now I have to correct every third word cause my arms and hands are shaking from todays workout of the past 3 days workouts in one day. I did the 3 days before that yesterday and this is for yesterdays post.

Ten rounds for time of:
3 Weighted Pull-ups, 45 pounds
5 Strict Pull-ups
7 Kipping Pull-up


I did the puppy work out as RX'd by Brand X
Puppies:
5 rounds (on a very cold and icy bar)
5 assisted or beginner pull ups
10 practice kips on the pull up bar

time: 7:15.03


Front Squat 5-5-5-5-5
95-115-115-115-125
On the second set of reps I noticed my form was getting bad so I stayed on 115 working on my form.

Run 5k

Buttercups:
Run 1-2 miles depending on your ability

I ran/walked a mile. Ran where I saw no ice and walked on the ice. More ice than not. I beat my last time though.

Time: 12:02.59

Hang Power Cleans

145(F)-135-135-135-135-145(F)-145(F)-135-135-135

Couldn’t get that 145 up. I guess I need to practice with just the bar again.

“Murph”

In memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, N.Y., who was killed in Afghanistan June 28th, 2005.
This workout was one of Mike’s favorites and he’d named it ‘Body Armor.‘ From here on it will be referred to as ‘Murph’ in honor of the focused warrior and great American who wanted nothing more in life than to serve this great country and the beautiful people who make it what it is.


For time:
1 mile Run
100 Pull-ups
200 Push-ups
300 Squats
1 mile Run

Partition the pull-ups, push-ups, and squats as needed. Start and finish with a mile run. If you’ve got a twenty pound vest or body armor, wear it.

Post time to comments.

I used the CrossFit BrandX scaling on this

Buttercups:
1/2 mile Run
25 Pull-ups (or beginner pull ups)
50 Push-ups
75 Squats
1/2 mile Run

Time 22:03:38

That’s not a nice one to do.... OWE!!!

Side note: I almost puked twice. I don’t think my neighbors would like it if I did that in there yards though
