So Sad...

WOD

"Annie"

50-40-30-20 and 10 rep rounds of:

Double-unders
Sit-ups

Post time to comments.

My time...13:02. Such a sad, sad time. Especially considering I did single jump rope. Double unders are something I definately need to practice, but the jumping rope isn't what got me. It was those dang abs!! It took me forever to do them. So again...something I need to work on.

On the plus side, my time today was 5 minutes faster than my previous "Annie" time. See, I told you it's so sad...

Hope everyone has a wonderful Holiday! Em and I leave in the morning for our travels around the world. (Not really, but with a toddler it's going to seem that way! lol)

See you after the 1st of the year!

Dang it!

WOD

Clean and Jerk 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps

Post loads to comments.

Did 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90 (barely), 95(f) which stinks because my old PR is 95...wasn't feeling it today. My left shoulder is starting to bother me...started about 3 days ago. Only get 2 more days in the gym before Em & I leave for Christmas vacation.

Yesterday & Today

Thursday's WOD

Five rounds for time of:
50 pound dumbbell, walking lunge, 10 alternating steps
50 pound dumbbell, swing, 15 reps

Post time to comments.

So this one really sucked. Especially since I did it in my freezing cold garage at 9:45 at night. I made the mistake of putting Emmy's inside play gym together last night which took forever. So by the time I got to the WOD I was already exhausted. Then I had timer malfunction with my watch...which sounds like total B.S., I know. But it's true. Doesn't matter anyway though cause I remember looking at my watch a couple minutes after I was done and knew my time was horrible. So horrible I'm not even going to mention it. haha! :)

I used our 35# kettlebell.

Oh well...on to today's WOD.

Friday's WOD

For time:
100 squats
2 muscle-ups
80 squats
4 muscle-ups
60 squats
6 muscle-ups
40 squats
8 muscle-ups
20 squats
10 muscle-ups

Post time to comments.

My time: 26:29 subbing 3 kips and 3 dips for every muscle up. So the workout looked like this:

100 squats
6 kips
6 bench dips
80 squats
12 kips
12 bench dips
60 squats
18 kips
18 bench dips
40 squats
24 kips
24 bench dips
20 squats
30 kips
30 bench dips

Have to say that after last night's lunges and tonight's squats, I'll be lucky to walk tomorrow.

Where did all that energy come from?

WOD

Push press 3-3-3-3-3-3-3 reps

Post loads to comments.

Loads were 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85 x 1 (PR), 90 x 1 (PR), 95 x1 (PR). Was pleasantly surprised by the new PR, especially since I'm usually pretty weak during upper body workouts. I think it was cause I was so excited to see Nat at the gym. She made me hyper! :)

Did a few kips to try and toughen up the hands.

Then did CF Endurance: 8 x 250m on 90 seconds. There was a debate on whether it was rest 90 seconds or go on the 90 seconds. I took the "rest 90 seconds" option. I still feel like I got a pretty good sprint workout in.

I was trying to take full advantage of being childless today at the gym. In case anyone noticed I had lots of energy. Not sure where it came from, especially since Em woke up at 4:30 this morning. Ended up staying for 2 hours...probably overstayed my welcome! haha! I promise tomorrow we'll be in and out since Em will be with me.

No new PR...dang it!

WOD

Shoulder Press 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps

Post loads to comments.

45, 55, 60, 65, 70, 72, 74(f), 73 (f)

Well, I tried for a new PR today but no luck. I got my old PR of 72#, but I have to admit even that seemed really difficult. I really dislike this lift. I don't know if it's because I'm so weak in my upper body, or what.
