2 pood Kettlebell swing, 30 reps
30 Pull-ups

My time-39:22PR (previous time 61:+)

Nick-36:45PR

Dave-45:25PR

Eva does not scare me anymore. The fact the in five month I shaved off over 20min. from my time is nuts. Ran felt great, no old man shuffle, swings in blocks of 15. Pull-ups were descent. But over all Awesome!!!! Recovered fast and felt great.... Does Crossfit work. Yes!! I love it. Crossfit or Die....

Over Head Squat 11/13

Over Head Squat
3x5
1x3
1x3
1x3
3x5 heavy

95lb-115lb-135lb-145lb-155lb-165lb

Weight had to come from he ground, up into a power clean or power snatch, and then back racked, adjusted grip, and then back jerked up ready for the over head squat. Felt good, legs and shoulders were taxed from a week of stuff. Worked on form and explosiveness. Happy with the WOD.

Clean and Jerk

Clean and Jerk 1-1-1-1-1-1-1

95-115-135-155-165-195-205f-205f

Did the lighter weight several time and then went big. I cleaned 205 very well, got low, received the bar in full squat, failed the jerk. I know I've got it next time for sure. Shoulders are a little taxed from this week, B/S excuse... But at least I have room to grow right?
Warmed up with Turkish Get-up progressions and went from 35lb to 95lb max both arms. Soon I will be hitting 115lb TGU. Like the movement a lot, fun to play with.

25x box jump
40x push press 95/55

15x split jump (per leg)

My time-23:25

Was happy to have completed it without falling down face first. Was feeling really strong until the front squat and my lack of a front rack hurt me. The rest went well until,,,,, the RUN. Again the old man shuffle.Complete Bullshit. I will get better at running when I'm hurting.... Crossfit or Die.... And Run till your gonna pass out..... Fuck it pisses me off.

Power Snatch w/ run 11/10/09

For time
95lb power snatch
400 mtr run
5 rounds

My time- 16:33

Very happy with it. Was able to complete first three rounds of snatch's without letting go of the bar, for the last two I would complete 5 and dump the weight. Its my run that still gets me, can't get past the old man shuffle. Gotta speed up that run!!!!! Crossfit or Die.

10k

10k for the National Firefighter Games.

Time- 53:14

Not very happy with the time but considering I was running on 1 hr. of sleep and don't really think they distance was accurate, I'll take it. Gotta get faster. Gonna run at least a 5k a week religiously.

Nate 11/5/09

AMRAP in 20 min.
2 muscle-ups
4 HSPU
8 2pood kettlebells swings

My#-8 rounds

This happened to be the first WOD I did at Crossfit Daytona. Was still fighting a cold and wanted to at least equal my PR, but I was happy with the work I did. HSPU are still my Achilles heel, and need some real attention.
