Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

After two injuries (knee, upper back) in the course of a week, I decided to take two weeks off. Today was the first day back.

800m run
20 lunge-kick-tilts
20 lunge-knee thrusts
15 hip extensions
15 toes to bar
15 ring rows
5 handstand wall walk-ups

"Chelsea"

5 pull-ups
10 push-ups
15 squats

on the minute for 30 minutes, or until failure

14 rounds + 11 squats

This is embarrassing; I've completed a Chelsea+4 (9,10,19) before. I know my engine's a little cold from not working out for two weeks, but my aerobic capacity shouldn't be this low. Time to start winding the metcon back up. I think I'll start light over the next couple weeks, then start slowly dialing up the weight.

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

800m run

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

I was wondering if you had taken some time off, man but it was good to see you back in the gym today. Cheers!

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

Thanks Jon! Felt good to be back, although still not 100%. That might take a while.

5 minute jump rope

2 x each:

20 reverse lunges

30 OHS, 75#

Horrible time! I was dying on the runs today, and the second and third set of pull-ups were pretty laborious.

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

Noon

3.5 km run

19:53

Didn't push too hard; just trying top get some mileage in.


5:45pm

3 minutes jump rope

2 x each:

20 forearm to instep lunges
10 hip extensions
20 frogleg sit-ups
10 chest to bar pull-ups, minimal kip
10 HSPU's

5 minutes max rep kettlebell swings, 16kg

131 reps

I probably could have gotten more if I'd made my sets longer. I alternated 15's (left/right) and then 10's. My grip's gotten a little weak.

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

Trying to get back down to 170, because I was faster and felt generally fitter at that weight. As such, I'll be indicating my body weight (AM weigh in) in my log from now on.

Lousy score, but I'm still feeling pretty sluggish. Also, working out late today.

1min suicides
1min rest

Only Ben and Toby showed up for class today, so I decided to work out with them (plus, it was pretty much the only chance I was going to get to work out today). Deadlifts sucked *** today, partly because I like to rest longer between sets than the class schedule allows, but largely because I'm still not 100%. Didn't keep a score on the metcon, so I could still call out clock counts and coaching cues.

I had originally planned to do five rounds, but I'd been feeling a little rough today, so I knocked it down to three. Actually felt great during the workout, hit all sets unbroken.

I'm disappointed with the PC+PJ's; I should be able to hit around 275. I don't think I attacked them very effectively though. I didn't warm up enough, and I started too low. Today's workout was also a little rushed. There should have been time for some sprint work at the end, as well.

Ouch! This took a lot longer than expected. I got winded pretty quick. Have to make sure I'm getting enough carbs.
