Nicole

WOD

"Nicole"
Complete as many rounds in 20 minutes as you can of:

Run 400 meters
Max rep Pull-ups

Post number of pull-ups completed for each round to comments.

Instead of running, I did rowing (500 meters).

Got in 5.5 rounds with pullups of 9, 5, 6, 6, 7 (I think that's right...forgot to write it down).

Last time I did Nicole was 11/19/2008 and I complete 5.5 rounds (with rowing) and kips of 6, 6, 6, 4, 6. So I guess it's a little better. Not much.

Still trying to get my kips back. I don't get tired so much, but my hands really hurt.

A day behind...

(Yesterday's) WOD

Rest Day

Today is a rest day for Crossfit, but I did run 2 miles. Doesn't seem like much, unless you know me and how much I dislike running. I made myself run the 2 miles without stopping, however, it was at a snail's pace. In the end, I feel good and energized. Em is taking a nap, but I think I'm going to pass on a nap today.

Backsquat 21

Didn't do either of the workouts today. My abs are entirely too sore from the previous day to do the GHDs. Tried doing clean & jerk, but my left shoulder is hurting from the push press and push jerk a few days ago.

So instead, I did Backsquat 21. My loads were:

65,70,75,80,85,90,95,100,105,110,115,120,125,130,135,140,145,150,155,160(f)

Almost got all 21 in...

WOD

"Barbara"
Five rounds, each for time of:
20 Pull-ups
30 Push-ups
40 Sit-ups
50 Squats

Rest precisely three minutes between each round.

Post time for each of five rounds to comments.

I can't remember my times, but I know they sucked. First one was at 9 minutes and something, and they only got worse. I've got to figure out why I'm so horrible at cardio...other than the fact that I don't do it very often. LOL! Energy level is way down too. I'm sure a lot of it is my eating. Haven't been that interested in food lately. Just eat something to fill me up and don't really pay attention to it's nutritional value. Ironic thing is that I make sure Em eats right and give her something in each food group at meals, plus try to give her healthy snacks.

Today was a good day. I needed it too because I have felt so weak lately. Got 3 new PR's. I have been stuck at 72# on SP for so long. It was nice to get over the hump. Also nice to join the 200 club for DL. I felt like I was trailing behind everyone. Thanks, Dymphna for the encouragement. I enjoyed working out with you tonight...sorry if Em and I were distracting for you. You did awesome on that 255 DL! :)

Last time I did CF Total was Oct 25, 2008 and my numbers were:

BS -160
SP - 67
DL - 190

Total: 417

Not as big a jump as we thought, D. That must have been an old # on the board.

Once again, feeling very weak! Not sure what my problem is...lack of sleep and eating right I guess. :(
