[B]Today:[/B]

1/2 mile run to gym

Modified Fight Gone Bad:
(no rower at Globo so only four stations)

Shoulder press (instead of push press) #45
SDHP #55
Box Jump 18"
Wall Ball as Rxd
56-60-59-55-54

Shoulder press KILLED me. Did 20 on round one and couldn't get past 13 on subsequent rounds.

Had mental block on box jumps for first round - kept standing there and not jumping because I could barely swing my arms. Got over it for rounds 2 - 5.

20 minutes of boxing. Love boxing.

1/2 mile run to work.

Did 216 Burpees to keep up w/100-day burpee challenge. I owed 71 & 72 from Sunday and Monday, and with 73 for today that makes 216. It is no fun to be sick and have to make up burpees.

Mark -

216!! 216!! 216 after being sick?!? You're my hero!:notworth:

I admire your dedication and determination.

Awesome work on both the FGB WO and the plank and DUs! As for the gloves, no negative issues here or probably with anyone else, Diane! The can really help your grip and/or prevent skin tears, etc.

I'm in panic mode!! Found out this morning that my globo gym is closing next Wednesday. Crap and double-crap. Going to have to come up with a plan.

Today:

10 rounds for time:

10 deadlifts #95
10 squat clean and jerks #55
10 jumping pullups

38 minutes and nearly died.

I am having a heck of time getting over the flu.

I did 2 rounds of 15 squats, 15 sit-ups, 15 push-ups from knees

149 Burpees (10, 10, …., 9). Had to make up yesterday's burpees because I was sick and did nothing yesterday.

4x10 Pull-ups

5x95lb. thrusters
5x95lb. thrusters

15 C&J w/ 95lbs.

2 sets of 10 dumbell sholder press w/20lb. dumbells

I have not done a posted WOD in a week trying to regain some strength to take one on.

[B][I]Warm-up:
Stationary Cycling: [/I][/B][I]10:00 / L3 / 100 RPM / 2.6 mi / HR to 110

[B]WOD: [/B]Was going to do "Annie" but was still tired from the long drive yesterday. Additionally, ended up fasting for 16 hours.....so, did a non-specific WOD.....

[B]Jump Rope: Singles
100 X 5 + 34 = 534. [/B]
First 3 sets unbroken. Tripped a LOT on the 4th. 5th unbroken, tho almost tripped. Got to 34 on the 6th and felt my left calf starting to cramp, so I stopped and called it good.

[B]Platform Jump (box jump)
10 X 1 X 18" - - [/B]quit after one set due to calf.

[B]Seated Rows:
WU = 70# X 15
130 X 3 [/B](135)
[B]145 X 3 [/B](150)
[B]160 X 3 (Old PR) [/B](165)
[B][COLOR=Red]175 X 3 - PR [/COLOR][/B][COLOR=Red](Actually 180!)
[COLOR=Black]Correct weights now......[/COLOR]
[/COLOR][COLOR=Red][COLOR=Black][B]190 X 1 (bad form)
175 X 3
160 X 3
115 X 12 (max reps)
[/B]Realized after doing the first set at 175, that an extra 5 lb "add-on" weight was sitting on the stack, so 5# are added in parentheses...)

[B]Pull-ups
3, 4 (uh), 3.

Kipping Pull-ups [COLOR=Red](YUP....got my kip!!!! Finally!!!)
[/COLOR][/B][COLOR=Red][COLOR=Black]2, 4, 2. Lower lat strength is wanting, so not quite getting to the bar, but definitely am kipping.....HooAhh[/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR][/I]

Sorry to hear about your globo, Diane. That really sucks big time! Are there any affiliates near you? Also, serious WOD here! 38 minutes is "screamin...."
