Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes! My husband is taking me out tonight for a swanky dinner so I'm sure my 6AM workout tomorrow will involve a serious wine hangover.

Today - 10/13/09
11AM workout in the gym with Bill

WU: Stretching, run to the gym, row 500m, dumbbell swings

Did DLs today (my favorite) and I totally sucked! Couldn't get past 140! Perhaps I was still suffering form yesterday's 100 burpees.

8 x 95#
8 x 95#
6 x 115#
3 x 135#
3 x 140# (F on rep 2)
1 x 140# (F)

3x
12 SDLHPs - 55#

Skipped the post WOD row and ran home.

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

Mmmmmmmm wine. I haven't had a drink in, um, 16 days. :yikes: Enjoy your birthday dinner!

My WOD:

“Kelly”
5 Rounds for time
Run 400 meters
30 box jumps, 24″ box
30 Wall ball shots (20#/14#)

I did stepups on a 20" box and I used a 10# ball for wallballs and mostly hit between 8' and 10'. Still working on getting the 10# ball to the 10' mark. My time was 33:30.

We are having "a week with the girls." :evilsmile

[B]Diane, Happy Birthday[/B]. Nice job on the birthday burpees.

Spent a couple of days this weekend working on cars. getting too cold to do that outside anymore this year.

Today
12 min on elliptical / 12 min run

3x10 knees to waist
3x20 sit ups. Last set was not easy at all.

3 sets 95x5 press
3 sets 135x5 back squat

Romanian Deadlifts
135x10
155x10

Seems like everything is coming back quickly. Could have lifted heavier, but patience, patience. Still ate running, but the AF says I have to do it.

[I]Not a good day, not feeling well. Had to keep stopping on the rower (stomachache). Last week w/no rest Sunday (5k), plus the birthday wod wrecked me. Don't know how some of you do 5 on all the time - with the tough wods you do. Just didn't seem like I recovered well all week[/I]!:p

Freezing cold this morning!!:brrr:

WU:
3X
15 Bench dips, 30 squats

WOD:
AMRAP 20 minutes
5 burpees

10 rounds + 5 burpees, 10 push-ups, 10 lunge walks
The push-ups slowed me down - had to do 5/5 after round 5

3X
15 Bulgarians each leg

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

OCTOBER 14 WOD:

Pass-throughs
Halos
Overhead squats
Stepups
Pullups
Situps
Ring Dips

“Jackie”
1000m row

I figured out (duh) on the rower that I can concentrate on my back and that'll probably help with the other movements. The legs know what to do. Pullups for sure felt stronger today.

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

It's been nearly two weeks. Sheesh! I was caught in a perfect storm of kid sickness and wife prepping for deployment leave...oh, and wine in a box. Anyway, I had an MRI w/ resolution on the knee and was told that I need to be more patient and stop squatting below parallel and with any weight higher than BW. Still not runnning at 21 weeks post op.
