Pullups are one of those movements that is just not getting any better, its pretty tough to keep going mentally when something is just so defeating.

Re: Bec's WOD Log
 

I realized its probably worth documenting for my reference, that I'm taking a rest week this week and also significantly altering my meals as of Sunday.

Its hard to know what duration of consistency is needed before changes will be apparent, but I feel I'm not getting what I want out of what I am doing right now, so it seems like more tweaks are in order. I added supplements a couple weeks ago, not really seeing any significant difference from those, but really in terms of supplementation I typically would not expect it to be dramatic anyway. Either way, I've tried an hoped things would work for me as typically they do for most, but so far no, so now it is time to prioritize, to reach my current goals I feel I am simply going to have to accept a diet that will potentially negatively impact my recovery and performance.

I'm altering my eating schedule to include two large meals, dinner as normal and a brunch of about 2x the usual breakfast amount (5eggs + veggies), remaining unweighed/measured. I will also continue small pre & post workout snacks on days I work out, all other planned snacks had already been dropped awhile back.

May 31:
Getting back in the swing after a light week last week due to illness.

Warmup/Skill: 500m row, 2min max hollow body rocks (43), Bridges, lacross ball mobility work. Max effort 800m Run: 3:58

WOD: Push Press
1-1-1-1-1

25x 33
3x 53
3x 53
63-73-[B]83-93-98 PR[/B]

98 is my previous Jerk PR, safe to say that has gone up quite a bit. That said, It is impossible to please myself, I went in just hoping for over 80, then when I got 98 I was disappointed for not going over 100. Just can't win.

Re: Bec's WOD Log
 

Jun 1:

Warmup - 500m row, flutterkicks, splits (front and side)

Skill - Squat Clean

WOD: 9-7-5
Squat Clean (100rx/73 & 63me)
Strict Pullups (blah)
6:29

Less than thrilled, my front squat is definitely holding me back, I could've power cleaned thru this at 80+ but I started failing on squat depth at about rep 7 and had to drop weight for the 2nd round to keep a full squat. Same deal, pullups aren't looking any better at all, I still can't make it thru more than 1-2 with the grey band, so used grey band + toe on a box.

Re: Bec's WOD Log
 

June 2:

Warmup - DUs, hollow body hold, supermans, mobility hip stuffs
Skill - Skin the cat (rings), best attempt got upside-down with assistance and then "slowly" rolled down.

WOD -
1000m row
50 TTR (did KTE on Bar, no rings for me)
100 walking lunges

Time: 15:05

Weighed to gauge progress this morning, definitely on target to be below the lowest weight I've hit so far when I weigh on Saturday, so the new eating schedule seems to be working as desired. However, as expected, recovery has been terribad as a result, pushing thru it though.
