Death by Unbroken Chest to Bar Pull-ups

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

After two injuries (knee, upper back) in the course of a week, I decided to take two weeks off. Today was the first day back.

800m run
20 lunge-kick-tilts
20 lunge-knee thrusts
15 hip extensions
15 toes to bar
15 ring rows
5 handstand wall walk-ups

"Chelsea"

5 pull-ups
10 push-ups
15 squats

on the minute for 30 minutes, or until failure

14 rounds + 11 squats

This is embarrassing; I've completed a Chelsea+4 (9,10,19) before. I know my engine's a little cold from not working out for two weeks, but my aerobic capacity shouldn't be this low. Time to start winding the metcon back up. I think I'll start light over the next couple weeks, then start slowly dialing up the weight.

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

800m run

2 x each:

20 forearm to instep lunges
10 hip/back extensions
10 GHD sit-ups
10 chest to bar kipping pull-ups
10 HSPU's

20 minute AMRAP

250m row

5 push jerks, 115#

11 rounds + 129m

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

I was wondering if you had taken some time off, man but it was good to see you back in the gym today. Cheers!

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

Thanks Jon! Felt good to be back, although still not 100%. That might take a while.

5 minute jump rope

2 x each:

20 reverse lunges
10 glute-ham raises
10 toes to bar, strict
10 ring dips
dislocates

3 rounds

400m run
30 OHS, 75#
21 pull-ups

16:03

Horrible time! I was dying on the runs today, and the second and third set of pull-ups were pretty laborious.

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

Noon

3.5 km run

19:53

Didn't push too hard; just trying top get some mileage in.


5:45pm

3 minutes jump rope

2 x each:

20 forearm to instep lunges
10 hip extensions
20 frogleg sit-ups
10 chest to bar pull-ups, minimal kip
10 HSPU's

5 minutes max rep kettlebell swings, 16kg

131 reps

I probably could have gotten more if I'd made my sets longer. I alternated 15's (left/right) and then 10's. My grip's gotten a little weak.

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

Trying to get back down to 170, because I was faster and felt generally fitter at that weight. As such, I'll be indicating my body weight (AM weigh in) in my log from now on.

BW-179#

5 minutes jump rope

2 x each:

20 reverse lunges
10 hip/back extensions
10 GHD sit-ups
15 kip swings
dislocates

"Nicole"

20 minute AMRAP

400m run
max pull-ups

26-23-16-13-14-5=97

Lousy score, but I'm still feeling pretty sluggish. Also, working out late today.

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

3 minute jump rope
forearm to instep lunges x floor
15 hip/back extensions
baby elephants x floor
15 kip swings

Deadlifts

10x135
8x225
5x315
3x405
3x425
3x445
465f

3 rounds

1min manmakers, 35# dumbells
1min toes to bar
1min suicides
1min rest

Only Ben and Toby showed up for class today, so I decided to work out with them (plus, it was pretty much the only chance I was going to get to work out today). Deadlifts sucked *** today, partly because I like to rest longer between sets than the class schedule allows, but largely because I'm still not 100%. Didn't keep a score on the metcon, so I could still call out clock counts and coaching cues.

Starting up a new program. Weights are light right now, coming in at 65% and working my way up. I'm planning to add some accessory lifts, but I was short on time today.
