WOD

Four rounds for time of:

Run 400 meters
50 Squats

My time was 17:15. Okay, so my time today was worse than last time back in November. Very disappointing! :(

Guess I know what I need to work on...CARDIO!!!

My time was 24:15 and I only used 45# for BP. Could have definately gone up, but I started the workout by myself in the gym and didn't want to get stuck. Or you could just call me a slacker! :)

Grace

WOD

"Grace"

135 pound Clean and Jerk, 30 reps

Use 95 pounds, 65 pounds or broomstick as needed and post time and load to comments.

Did it w/70# in 6:44.

14 seconds slower than last time I did it on 09/18/2008, but did 5# more. Not much improvement.

Thanks Nat for watching Em so I didn't have to drag her with me. :)

Front Squat

WOD (Yesterday's)

Front squat 3-3-3-3-3 reps

Post loads to comments.

I'm a day behind on the workouts because I'm still so sore I can hardly move...made sure to do a lot of stretching before FS today. Plus, I think it helped to loosen things up a bit.

My FS was a lot weaker than usual. Uglier too! Just ask Nat...haha!

I think my totals were something like

45 x5 (warmup), 65,85,95,115,125

Getting back into it is proving to be a lot harder than I expected. Also worked on kips.

Back at it again...Tabata Something Else

WOD

"Tabata Something Else"

Complete 32 intervals of 20 seconds of work followed by ten seconds of rest where the first 8 intervals are pull-ups, the second 8 are push-ups, the third 8 intervals are sit-ups, and finally, the last 8 intervals are squats. There is no rest between exercises.

Post total reps from all 32 intervals to comments.

My total was 263. HORRIBLE!! Especially on the pull-ups. I even had to do "girly" push-ups because I was so weak from the pull-ups. I am sad to admit I have lost my kip. I felt so weak! I guess that's what I get for taking a month off...oh yeah, and I can hardly move this morning.
