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.

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 reps = 231
Broken down, my numbers for each exercise were:
kips: 7, 6, 6, 5, 5, 4, 5, 3 = 41
pushups: 7, 6, 7, 5, 6, 4, 5, 4 = 44
situps: 6, 7, 7, 5, 7, 6, 6, 6 = 50
squats: 13, 12, 11, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12 = 96
Sorry for my whiny, cranky child in the gym this evening! :( Hopefully she didn't drive anyone too batty!

Not feeling it...
WOD
"Nate"
Complete as many rounds in twenty minutes as you can of:
2 Muscle-ups
4 Handstand Push-ups
8 2-Pood Kettlebell swings
Post rounds completed to comments.
I did 3 kips & 3 dips for every muscle up, did each handstand (but no pushup) and held for 10 seconds, a lighter kettlebell (can't remember which one, but I know it wasn't the small one! lol)
Completed 9 rounds. Probably not that great, but I wasn't feeling it today. I didn't really even want to go in...Emmy decided she was going to be a little turd all morning so it kind of put me in a bad mood before even getting to the gym. Luckily she behaved long enough for me to finish and run by the grocery store.
Everything I told her not to do...she would look at me, smile and purposely defy me. Normally this wouldn't be a problem, except when I'm cooking and I tell her not to touch the oven because it's hot. She looks at me and reaches her hand out about an inch away from it. I tried to give my most stern face (to her I probably just looked like an idiot) and said "no". And she touched it!!! Ugh! What am I going to do with that child?! Gotta love the independence and strong will! :)
