mixin it up

last 2 days have been at the Hyatt in Minneapolis.

I've done a lot of pullups, dips, handstands, C2 rowing (one minute on, one minute off), and practice snatching (not very well). Got some good work in, but nothing to compare to at a later date.

5k...not today

At the Hyatt in Minneapolis...saw a C2...long time listener, first time caller!

started with some stretching and a few pullups, then rowed on the C2. Did 500m, then got on the treadmill. Ran/walked 1.75 miles (walked on steep inclines) in 16:00. Finished with a 2500m row that took about 12:00.

Finished with some shoulder stretches, handstands, weighted pullups, & dips.

Nasty Girls

scaled today's WOD to:

3 rounds:
50 squats
pullups & ring dips
10 135# cleans

I thought I could pull a couple muscle ups (nasty girls rx is 7 m/u per round) but when I failed on the first, I realized i was in trouble. Ended up doing some pullups and ring dips each round (maybe 10 of each) just to keep moving. All else done as Rx.

time: about 16 minutes...

outside WOD

repeats of 100ft walking lunges, then pullups and situps in sets of 21-18-15-12-9-6.

WOD done outside with pullups on the rings and support beam of swingset. All pullup sets were broken with modified kips, I can't get the rhythm on the rings. Tried to get at least half of each set before dropping off. Time 16:46.

humid morning but I beat the heat on this one!

AMRAP

20 minutes of
15 95# squat cleans
12 ring dips
21 situps

all reps strict

4 sets in 20:58

finished with some skin the cats on the rings and a little handstand work

Wednesday, June 10, 2009

back squat 1-1-1-1-1-1-1

245, 255, 265, 255, 270, 245, 245

all lifts successful, but I'm not sure I got deep enought on the 270, so I dropped weight and focused on depth for the 245s. My legs were still pretty tired after yesterday's one leg squats.

did some chest to bar strict pullups, deep dips, and some handstand work.

My handstands are getting much better. today, accidentally, i went over backwards and landed on my feet first (not a forward roll), then lowered down to my back. it's nice to know I can do that and not kill myself. I had one stand for probably 5 seconds...which seems like forever!

what was the name of that bus that hit me?

This WOD was HARD!

For time:
Run 800m
40 L pull-ups
Run 800m
40 Strict pull-ups
Run 800m
40 Kipping pull-ups

L pullups and most of first part of stricts done on rings on playset outside. I got 13 strict pullups done and hit the wall, so I ran my 3rd 800m then went back to strict pullups and did 20 strict off the bar in the basement. Did final 7 of strict set using wide band for assistance.

I got through kipping set pretty strong and realized I use a lot of energy to "catch" myself on the way down if I don't push away from the bar.

time 34:20.

WOD totals 40 L pullups, 33 strict pullups, 7 band assisted pullups, 40 kipping pullups, ran 1.5 miles

OHS

WOD as Rx was OHS 5-5-5-5-5. I spent time stretching shoulders using PVC bar and did some reps of OHS using PVC. Seemed to get lower with less discomfort than ever and no numbness in hands or fingers...good thing, right?

Also spent some time upside down, practicing handstands. I still don't have the confidence to "roll" out of a bad situation and that keeps me from staying up as long as I probably could. I used the wall to help balance to get used to being on my hands.
