Welcome, Bob!

[U][B]Thursday, 9/25/08:[/B][/U]

[I][B]Warm-up: Versa Climber 10:00. [/B]Med intensity.[/I]

[B]WOD: [I]"Nicole"[/I][/B]
[400m Run / Pull-ups - as many as possible
Complete as many rounds as possible in 20:00].

Used 1/4 mile (.25) distance on treadmill instead of 400m.
Did jumping pull-ups (sets of 10)

[I][B]Completed four rounds 19:38. [/B](Caught my breath the last 22 seconds!).
Runs: 2:30/2:30. Ran .15 mile/walked .10 mile: 2:45. Ran .16 mi/walked .09 mile 2:50.
Jumping P/Us: 10, 10 (6 /last 4 with quick breaks), 10 (5/last 5 w/breaks), 10 (5/last 5 w/breaks). [U]Fought all the way!!![/U]

[B]Back Squats:
[/B][/I] 45# X 5. 3 sets
95# X 4
135# X 3
155# X 3. Did not feel comfortable with form, so stopped here.

[I][B]Shoulder Press: [/B][/I]
45# X 8
95# X 2
105# X 2
115# = Failed. [B][I]Max = 105#[/I].[/B]
[I][B]
Bench Press:[/B][/I]
45# X 10
135# X 5
155# X 3
175# X 1 [I][B]Max = 175#[/B][/I] (bench pressed my body weight............well, what it'll hopefully be in about 6 mos)!!! :rofl:

[I][B]Dead Lift:[/B][/I]
45# X 5
95# X 5
135# X 5
185# X 3
225# X 3!! [I][B]Max = 225#. [/B]Did not want to press my luck...........[/I]

[B]CFT = 505.

[/B]Today was a "near mountain top experience" for me. Found out my knee was able to tolerate two shots of running a full quarter mile each (even though it was on a treadmill)! First time I've been able to run for nearly a year and a half! Only reason I had to walk was that I got too winded; [I]and......[/I]tried a CFT!
I was really (and pleasantly) surprised! Thought my numbers would be in the more 350-ish range. DL and BP really surprised me! I haven't tried a max in over 12 years! [U]Overall, an incredible day!![/U] Makes CF WODs really worth fighting for!

Thanks, Carla, and yup! Definitely a "Snoopy Dance" day!

Re: The Bassman's Log (Steve Lampl)
 

That rocks, Stephen! Awesome that you had the energy after the WOD to do that.

I'm confused, though... is bench press a substitute for back squat on the CFT?

Thanks, Steve! I'll bet I got it wrong. I thought it was bench press, but I couldda transposed the letters. Gotta look it up......

Yup.........got it wrong. It was BS, not BP! SOoooooooooo, my numbers change to [I][B]CFT = 485. [/B][/I]I'll still take that (as an old duffer) any day! Thanks for the info, Steve. Gotta keep me honest!

Re: The Bassman's Log (Steve Lampl)

Seriously, that is a kick-butt workout. I would have wilted much sooner! Way to go!!
