Rough day...

Deadlift

10 - 95
7 - 135
5 - 225
5 - 275
5 - 315
5 - 325 (Miss) 4 reps -
5 - x

Hurt my back on that last rep of 325. Right in the middle of my lower back had a sharp quick pain and dropped the bar. If felt myselft get lazy and that's what happens I guess. My PR was 315 so, I probably should've gone 320 instead. Owell. Also, dropped a friggin' barbell on my foot after class. Nice. Insult to injury.

The Chiros were on hand after I hurt my back. When I got adjusted the first thing Doc did was push my sacrum back into place...that was weird. I heard it and felt it. Hopefull I'm okay for the fittest over 35 deal on the 6th.

My regular WOD was supposed to be 15 rounds of Cindy as fast as possible but, got to the box and a similar WOD was on the board so I just did that one.

3 pull-ups
6 Hand release push-ups
9 squats

1 round the first minute
2 rounds the next 2 minutes
3 rounds the next 3 minutes
Up to 7 rounds

the round of 8 was for time

Finished in 32:54

20 min run - still nursing the back. Felt good on the run though.

My house to the light pole past the big tree in front of the Ford guard house back to 22800...need to check the distance but it was probably about 2.5 miles.

Just checked. It was about 2.37 miles.

Still not 100% comfortable with the lower back - did my version of the MCCF warmup...didn't even really break a sweat. Just going to lay low til Saturday for the competition.

Fittest over 35 competition.


The theme of the day was “show control”,

WOD#1 Sandbag getups
Using a 60lb bag, go from the the ground to shoulder 5/5 L/R and then sprint up a dirt hill approx 120 yards

[B]2:10:72 (I went first on these so, I didn't really know how to attack it - If I had to do it over again I would just fall back on my butt and lay down, I was getting down like a TGU)[/B]

WOD#2 Bear2tire
30 power cleans 95#
Bear crawl 40 yards
30 Tire jumps (36inch)
30 Tire GHD sit-ups
Bear crawl back to bar

[B]5:41:50[/B]

WOD#3 Trail run ruck
roughly 3/4 mile dirt bike course carrying 2 25# dumbbells.
you cannot take you hands off the dumbbells
at three separate points stop and do
30 sand angels
30 hand release burpees
30 squat and reach.

[B]17:10:00[/B]

WOD#4 KB sled sprint
30 KB swings 45#
tire/sled pull
Sprint up incline hill

[B]1:15:34[/B]

Fun time and a good group. Only thing that sucked was the scoring system. IMO an accumulative time system with 3 Power/Speed WOD's and 1 Endurance WOD heavily favors the longer workout. But - that's life!

Active rest - just did some really light snatch and C&J's. Have an Oly meet Saturday (My first USAW meet). I plan on going a bit heavier today and tomorrow then taking it easy on Thursday and Friday.

Did some light snatch work again. Stayed at 95...did about 15 reps or so. I plan on going fairly heavy today in preparation for Saturday.

Re: JD's CrossFit Chronicle
 

good luck at the meet, JD...

But more importantly -- have fun!

snatch - concentrated on getting to the bottom - wasn't too aggressive, just wanted the reps to feel right.

3 - 65
1 - 95
1 - 105
1 - 115
1 - 125
1 - 135 (Not perfect)
1 - 135 - miss
1 - 135
1 - 145 (Miss) way overhead. Came forward
1 - 145 (same as previous)
1 - 145 (toes. also muscled it)
1 - 145 (forward again)

for some reason I pulled my right *** cheek a bit. I'll be okay though.

Did some light cleans...don't remember the weights 100% but I don't think I went much over 165. Didn't want to hurt myself for the competition the next day.
