Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

Everyone-
WOW!!! All the work is really something to read about.

Stephen, great Fran. I can only dream.

Terry, great back squat. I can only imagine myself impaled on the floor with 310 on the ground and me folded under it.

Friday, I did CFWUx3 w/assisted dips.
Ran 6 mins. on treadmill then did a bunch of sets of shoulder press and back squat at weights ranging from 45lbs. up to 105lbs. on SP and 45lbs. to 160lbs. on Back squats. I just worked and worked and worked.

Today I did 6 rounds of run 400 meters, do pull-ups, then rest 2 mins.
I ran 2:16, 1:50, 1:51, 1:51, 1:56, 1:50. I did 8,8,6,6,4,4 pull-ups.

[B]Tom,

[/B]Welcome back! Solid work with the Db snatches.

[B]Charlie,

[/B]Props both on the press PR and the "kick butt" rowing! Kudos to you on the full career.....hope you find something out there work-wise that is right up your alley.

[B]Bill,

[/B]Great work on "Nicole."

[B]Terry,

[/B]You also (with "Nicole."). Did my first one ever yesterday. Kudos on the BS PR today! You have to feel wonderful to have busted the 300# barrier. Was it you or Danny doing the yelling?

[B]Pat,

[/B]Great "Nicole" also. Do you work out at a box, or do the "garage gym" thing? My folks live up in Cottonwood, but there the closest affiliate is in Prescott.

[B]Diane D.,

[/B]Glad you are enjoying the weather. Been taking a rest day myself and have been out driving my little blue car, but my rower has been calling to me.........enjoy the weekend!

[B]John W.,

[/B]Solid work! I too love Rip's quote!

[B]John B.,

[/B]Nice work on the thruster-burpee WOD. I can think of other forms of preferable punishment than 100 thrusters and 50 burpees in one workout!

[B]Mark,

[/B]Great work both days! Way to just work at it consistently. I'll be so happy when I can start adding significant weight to my snatches, BS, and OHS. Still stuck on form and skill work. Nice, fast 400s and pull-ups!

[I][B]Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

I would agree with Tom, thx to everyone for the props on the BS (back squats). I am no so good at giving props to others, but there is definately lots of great work going on in our thread. So much, that you almost have to write a book on it. :)

Headed off to NJ for a biz trip.

[B]Terry[/B]- Maybe we could all collaborate on a book. We could use Diane's signature line as the title !

[B]John B[/B]. - Nice job on Cindy and congrats on the DL PR.

As a group we seem to be hitting a lot of PRs on the major lifts.:pepper:

Hello Over 50 Group

Thanks John for the introduction.

I've been doing Crossfit since November. It's become a little bit of an obsession. I look forward to posting with all of you. I ask for your patience and help if I screw up on something.

Today's WOD
Run and walk on the Long Beach NY boardwalk. (4.2 miles) It was my easy day as I did a modified Filthy Fifty yesterday and it knocked me out a little.

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

I golfed yesterday.

Today:


Sunday 8/02/2009 ***The Steve***

For Time:
40 53# KB swings (26# kettlebell)
250m row
30 53# KB swings
500m row
20 53# KB swings
750m row
10 53# KB swings
1000m row

My time: 19:04

I also did an (like one) unassisted pullup. But no one saw me. I could do two last year (and 4-5 chinups) when I was doing P90X. Hoping to increase that number fast. This starts my fourth week of CrossFit. Not looking forward to box jumps or burpees. Hee hee!

Diane D., I was in Pitts. for Mother's Day and really wanted to move there. I need to come back in winter when the sky is gray and the cars are sideways.
