400 meter Walking lunge

Post time and number of steps to comments.


200 meters/196 steps/8:44

Ran out of time to complete the 2nd WOD. On Linda the bench press was my biggest weakness. I wasn't expecting to see much of an improvement in time and i can live with a 20 second drop for now. Definately tired after these WODs.

Run from Honda Dealership

Cold this morning, ran the 1.5 miles in 9:32. Slower than I was hoping for, I would like to see this back down to 9 min in the spring.

Compare to Run 10:03

Update 1:10 Ran back to get the car in 10:22, took it easy going back, no rush. Back felt a little tight.

Felt good today. I wasn't expecting to since I have already compeleted 4 WOD in the last 3 days but I felt good with the weight.

Crossfit 091122

Complete as many rounds as possible in twenty minutes of:
25 Burpees
Body weight back squat(165), 15 reps

5 Rounds plus 25 Burpees and 1 BW Squat

Another WOD of the day were I thought "This shouldn't be too hard" . I figured 10 rounds shouldn't be that tough. Wrong as usual. Good workout though. Finished with abs(30 situps, 25 med. ball twists) and chin-ups(2x10).

Post 300 and Crossfit 091118

"Elizabeth"

21-15-9 reps of:
Clean 135 pounds
Ring dips (subbed 4 regular dips per ring dip)

(6:09/6:02/3:29)15:39

Compare to 091012(11:34)

4 min slower this time and with good reason. I did all of the cleans with a full squat. Previously I was cleaning from the floor and just barely coming under the bar, this time I went down to a full squat with each rep which really wiped me out at the end. This was a good workout for #300. Finished with a little ab work.

Crossfit 091116 & 091120

091116

"Angie"


For time:
100 Pull-ups
100 Push-ups
100 Sit-ups
100 Squats

12:51 (2:33/3:00/3:29/3:49)

Compare to 090926 (16:33)

091120
1X1X1X1X1X1X1 DeadLift @ 275

Compare to 090922 @225

I did the same double WOD in Sept. I beat my old Angie PR of 12:56 set in April so I am pleased. My 16+ min last time was due to strained ab muscles so I expected a big drop.

Navy Seals Challenge Pre-test

Every year I participate in a "Navy Seal Challenge" at my current client. This year they moved it up because the gym is moving during the time they usually do it in the spring. Overall I was pleased with the results:

Weight: 162.6 (Spring 09 Post-Test: 164)
%BF: 10.2 (10.6)
Push-up(2min): 89 (107)
Curl-up(2min): 169 (208)
Pull-up(Failure):20 (22)

Run(1.5 miles) 8:42 (8:52)

Comparing to last year's post everything got worse except the run. However, I was far ahead of last year's pre-test. My hopes would be to hit 125 push-ups, 200 curl-ups, 25+ pull-ups, and 8:25 for the run. The drop off wasn't nearly as much as previous years which was good to see.
