Re: The Shed 'O Pain
@Tim, so that's 1500 of the 10,000 done?
Thursday August 14, 2014 goblet squat, overhead squat, pass through, ankle mobility warmup 5 circuits of pull downs bench presses curls strict presses sit ups back raises Finished with 1 mile on the treadmill, trying to lengthen my stride. My stride has gotten so short that people are asking why I'm "shuffling" when I should be walking. I shortened my stride a lot after the July 8 injury and then the july 26th re-injury. Gotta get it lengthened back out again. Oly practice tomorrow at CTown then Saturday at Rubber City Weightlifting. |

Saturday August 16, 2014
Oly Practice With Coach snatches to 72kg c&j to 105kg cleaned 110, couldn't do anything with it. Then........ 3,3,3,3,3,3 back squats 20kg, 50kg, 70kg, 80kg, 100kg, 120kg Then.... 3,3,1 OHS, 20kg, 40kg, 50kg It's inhumane to ask a 53 year old with arthritis and a replacement hip to do squats after Oly practice!!!! |

Sunday August 17, 2014
Some stretching 21 minutes of continuous activity with light kettlebells and a roller wheel (which really gave my back a good stretch) some HSPU skill practice, some false grip ring pullup practice, some dip practice. Overall an easy day. Watched Tim complete swings 2001-2500 of the 10k kb swing challenge. The kettlebell looked a little heavier today... |

Mobility Work
Shoulder Mobilization Routine 3 rounds 10 KBS 45# 1 Press 95# 15 KBS 2 Presses 25 KBS 3 Presses 50 KBS 5 rounds 37:58 First day with 45#. Really torched the grip.

5 burpee pull overs 2 rounds 10 KBS 45# 1 pull up 15 KBS 2 pull ups 25 KBS 3 pull ups 50 KBS 5 rounds 36:23 Hands are tender, even with the gloves. Pull ups were a lot harder than I thought they would be. Pull ups are hard when you don't have much grip left. Kind of a suckfest today. |

Travel day Wednesday August 21, 2014 Rest day while working in Minnesota Thursday August 22, 2014 Rest day So, no exercise on tues/wed/th. I thought it would make my back/hip/leg feel much better, but it didn't. Think I might need one final trip to the chiroquack to get this back looked after. |
Re: The Shed 'O Pain
Bouldered at CRG with Jeff. Had a great time. Lots of easy and moderate problems. Always good to climb with Jeff. Did some dips to finish up.

Re: The Shed 'O Pain
Sunday August 24, 2014
Watched KB swings 4001-4500. The KB seems to be getting larger... Did 20 minutes of constant motion under light tension. 5x65# deadlifts, 10x10#kb curls, 10x10#kb presses, 10x10#kb snatches, 10x10#kb swings, 3 pullups, 5 rounds. GHD stretching. 10 TGUs with 10# kb The 10 pounder was perfect for rehab. Enough to get me sweaty and to pay attention, not enough to re-injure. So I think I've decided to go back to my split style of movements. The Oly shoes and squats are just too much on my hips and pelvis. I went looking for instructional videos and found these three amazing videos. [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h32BVGSIhSs[/url] [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXZ3LtRVdig[/url] [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3KkZfRCuPs[/url] The third lift is amazing! Watch his left hand. It starts out in reverse deadlift and he has to flip it to catch it at the top!!! |
Re: The Shed 'O Pain
Monday August 25, 2014
Warmup Goblet squat hold, pass throughs, hip flexors, ankles, walking lunges, overhead walking lunges. Snatch Practice 10xPVC 10x31# 10x65# 5x95# 5x135# 1x140# Did all these split style wearing sneakers, instead of squat style wearing Oly shoes. This was MUCH easier on my hips and back. Snatch Deadlifts 3-3-3-3-3 135-185-185-185-185 Am going to go back to single lifts on single days during the week with an accessory and then try for training weight on Saturdays with my coach. |

Re: The Shed 'O Pain
Double Under Practice (I managed to do 30 in a row)
Shoulder Mobilization Routine 3 rounds 10 KBS 53# 1 HSPU 15 KBS 2 HSPUs 25 KBS 3 HSPUs 50 KBS 5 rounds 39:40 Very hot in the Shed this afternoon. The heat contributed to some nasty blisters on my hands. I grossed out my family. There's no way I'll be able to workout tomorrow with a kettlebell. Hopefully Thursday. On a positive note I'm half way through the Kettlebell Challenge. |
Re: The Shed 'O Pain
@Tim, nice job getting the mojo back on dubs!
30 this time, 40 next time, and then it'll be 107. Wednesday August 27, 2014 Goblet squat, pass throughs, walking lunges, walking overhead lunges split clean and split jerk practice. Got some decent weight overhead. Need to drill using the heavy weight as a ceiling that I push against to get myself low, rather than trying to push the bar up, I need to push myself down then just stand up! Julie Foucher was training by herself at the same time I was training by myself, she's a very interesting person to talk to. |

Rest Day The Thursday and Friday before Labor Day are two of my favorite days to live in downtown Cleveland. The Air show is sat/sun/mon over the labor day weekend, but on Thursday and Friday the Blue Angles and other jets practice over downtown. They buzz between the buildings and do all kinds of crazy things. It's very exciting. |

That blister is pretty gross. I can see why your family was disgusted! Simulated Oly Comp Snatch warmups One attempt at 135, 145, 155. made all three attempts C&J warmups One attempt at 205, 215, 225, made all three attempts Given this result, I think I am going to compete tomorrow at the Speed Shop Open. I don't know if I can get the 182kg total needed to qualify for the 2015 Pan Ams, but will give it a shot. May take a more aggressive approach to opening weights as an experiment. |

A good day lifting at the Reaction Krav Maga + CrossFit Speed Shop Open today. Thanks to the Speed Shop and all its volunteers for putting on a top notch meet. Thanks also to Coach Daniel Bell and Coach Mike Walker and Coach Kat Lee for such excellent game day management and help learning to lift. Thanks also to Coach Carl Dei for keeping an eye on me during the week at CTown CrossFit. Had a career day going 70-74-78(Pr) on the snatch and 104-107-113(PR) on the C&J for a PR total of 191. This meets the qualifying standard for the 2015 Pan Am Games in Puerto Rico next June and is a big step towards my goal of qualifying for the 2016 World Championships. There's still a long way to go, but every step forward is a step in the right direction. Congratulations to all the Rubber City Weightlifting crew who lifted some serious weight. See you next Saturday. |

C&J practice at Rubber City Weightlifting I stank Then did back squats up to 130kg. My 10 year old niece Emma came to the weightlifting club today and had a good time.
