That's a great Murph time! Did you do it Cindy-style or straight?

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

Thanks Jim. I did it Cindy style. I like running and can crank out a lot of push-ups and squats, so that workout suits me. I may try it weighted next time and see how it goes, but the pull-ups will be way tougher. That's my weakness. If I could get down to my ideal weight, that would help a lot.

Front Squat 3-3-3-3-3 (135#, 155#, 185#x3)

DUs during warm-up in sets of 15 (PR by 1) and 17 (PR by 3).
Running intervals weren't much fun after Murph yesterday, although I felt better once I got loose and sweaty.
Took it easy on the front squats tonight and focused on form, as my legs have taken a beating. On a normal day I would have gone 200+.

8:36 (mile 1), 15:35 (20 rounds of Cindy), 8:23 (mile 2)... despite running at night with traffic, pot-holes, etc. Can't run as fast at night on that road. There are a lot of pot holes and cars keep their high beams on, blinding me so I can't see anything. Wasn't really pushing it hard all of the time on Murph, just maintaining a steady pace...[/quote]

Great Job on Murph!!

Bill - Super PR on the DL's

[B]WU:[/B]
200m run
loosen uppers
200m run
10 "Vomit Comets" (Burpees (Yay! Burpees!) with a double crunch after the push up)
Plank holds till the whole class was done.

[B]WOD:
[/B]"The Other Total"
Clean - 155# (PR! :pepper:)
Bench Press - 235# (PR! :pepper:)
Overhead Squat - 155# (PR! :pepper:)
Total - 545

[I]Felt really good about the runs & the lifts. Had trouble with the Clean till my instructor told me that I needed more Power, i.e. strength WITH speed. Focusing on that (getting the speed on the lifts) helped me get the loads up high enough to let me get under them.[/I]

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

morning work out 15 minutes of various upper body sled pulls with 35 lbs

at the box tonite

1000m row
21-15-9
65 lb good mornings
lunges each leg
1000m row
wearing a 20 lb vest from start to finish

15:38

i felt kinda spanked by the end. gotta love upper body injuries that limit range of motion........

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

Nice William - PR'd everything in your total!!!
Jim, that'll be the day, when I say I like running and can crank out pushups & squats!! nice pr. (I think I ran an 8:34 doing Murph this summer. I miss summer! total time was pretty lame though :o).


[B]01.04.2011-Tuesday-Day 2[/B]
Warmup: Row 500, squats, lunges, et al shoulder mobility & stretch

[B]WOD: Goal - maximum reps of:[/B]
back squats
jump rope (singles or double unders)
WOD format:
18:00 continuous running clock, back squats on the even minutes (starting at minute zero), jump rope singles or double unders on the odd minutes

Women's rx'd back squat: 95#
Men's rx'd back squat: 165#
[B]Rx w/DU - 88 squats+213 DU = 301[/B]
Not great for me, but a good one for practice; first three rounds of DU unbroken (40, 25, 25 - 40 might be a PR?), then it got dicey, one round I only did 6 DU and 8 squats, 13th or 14th minute?? I knew from the getgo my metcon is down, trying to fix my squat, so did 10 good slow squats per round (I push my knees out, but not enough, thats what I worked on)... could easily have done 13-14 per round, but my form might suffer, plus then my DU would pbly be low. My DU, eh. I'll worry about them later!

1/4 Workout

Took a boxing class at SBAC with Becky. Basically 50 minutes of aerobic dancing with punching (jabs, crosses, hooks, and uppercuts) and knees and kicking included. Got to pound on a heavy bag for a while, which was satisfying.
