Pier and back in 22:17, fastest time this year, but a long way from a PR.

Am interested in taking a shot at a few of the Master's Games WODS, especially the DL ladder, might have had a chance to win that puppy....

Tweaked my lower back in the exact same spot simply standing up.
Back to square one.
D*mn.

Been away from the WODs with family stuff! (I did try to teach my Daughter-in-law how to clean. In the rain!!)

[B]WU:[/B]
400m run
100+ SUs
10 leg swings (each leg, both directions)
10 Push ups
5 sec Fingertip plank hold
10 Pull Ups
10 AbMat Sit ups
10 45# Presses
10 45# OHS

[B]WOD:[/B]

Muscle clean 1-1-1-1-1 reps
65#, 95#, 115#, 135#, 135#
Power clean 3-3-3-3-3 reps
75#, 95#, 115#, 135#, 155# (1)
Squat Clean 5-5-5-5-5 reps
75#, 95#, 115#, 135#, 135#
[I]
I hadn’t done Muscle Cleans & felt my last pulls had the “jump” (at least on one side.
The Power cleans were tough, especially the 155#. I missed one by getting my thumb wrapped around the bar too tight. The screw up psyched me out. :mad:
The good thing about my squat cleans was that my knee didn’t hurt. But, they WERE tiring!![/I]

[I]The runs after the 1st round were tough. I was able to get the OHS done straight through in the 1st, fourth, and last rounds. This was the SLOWEST time on the board. Yet, I clipped 5:13 off my last Rx attempt in April 2014!!!:pepper::pepper:

Guess this CrossFit stuff works!! :D[/I]

@Bill, that's a HUGE improvement, congratulations.

July 28-29-30

Stretching, walking, more stretching, trying to get upright.

The back is starting to recover, the light at the end of the tunnel is not a train.

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

Hello everyone. Glad to see you are all still kicking butt. Life in the country, work and vacations have gotten in the way of posting and formal workouts.

7/28
WU: Row 1km; walking lunges X 20yds; air squats X10; KB press 25, 35 X10; pull-ups bw, +15, +21 X10
Workout: Deadlifts 95, 115, 135 X10

7/29
Brush cutting and searching for myrtle spurge on our property. Myrtle spurge is apparently a class 1 noxious weed in CO. We got a nasty letter from the county telling us that it had been observed on the property and that we had ten days to respond with our plan for eradication. :censored:

7/30
WU: Row 1km; walking lunges BW, +15, +21 X20 yds; KB press 25, 35, 45 X10/side; pull-ups BW, +15, +21 X8

thanks bill....i was surprised myself :D

j.t. i always love seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and knowing it is not a train.

missed tuesday due to dealing with a very sick dog at the vets.

knocked 2:08 off my last time

41:35 last nite

Is it really August already?

Back continues to improve, did some walking and some body weight movements. Lots of stretching, a few strict pullups and a few T2B.

Did some coaching.

Might try to lift something light tomorrow.
