Hard day, first time in a little while that we put in this much work in one day. I felt good even though I wasn't to thrilled about any of these WOD's. They all gave me some trouble and I had to really dig deep for them. Glad I did. I'm tired......

Shoulder Press

Press
1x10
2x5
3x3:

My#- 115-135-145.

Lifts felt okay. I really need to work on activating my Posterior chain Muscles, pushing my head through and squeezing those shoulders up. I did okay though. Prior to the Press we were dragging tires up and down the retention pond. I liked it a lot, good leg work, good lactic acid build-up.

Nicole


NICOLE
workout:5 min row/ride/rope
3 rounds of "cindy"then:
"Nicole"
AMRAP 20 min
400m run
max pull-up:

My #- 35-21-20-20-25-17= 6R + 138pu =PR

First WOD back since my stupid hurt back incident on Monday. Not 100%, but feeling much better. Pull-up felt great, butterfly was strong and finished last few of each round with old school kipp, run could always be better, but managed to not pull the old man shuffle. Hands tore on my last round (haven't been religious about my Pedegg), but it was totally worth it. My numbers were strong. I love CF sooo much, I don't know what I'd do if I sustained a real injury....... I will be safe, I will listen to my body, and I will still push the limits of my own physical ability...... I fucking love this shit!!!!!!!!!!

And so it begins


A new chapter in my life didn't necessarily begin with the completion of my Crossfit Level 1 Certification, as it did when I became completely engrossed in Crossfit, and decided I would allow it to change my life. But this past weekend I received my certification, and took one giant step closer to what I want as the second passion in my life side by side with being a firefighter, is being a coach/ trainer, Crossfit athlete. I want to not only bring myself to the apex of my athletic ability and fitness, but I want to share my passion and show others how good life can be if you stop making excuses, stop waiting for tomorrow, and start acting today, start being accountable for the life we are living and the amazing, fun, sexy life we want to live. I love Crossfit for its intensity, goal oriented structure, team and family atmosphere, and for how it makes you feel before and after a brutal WOD. Crossfit or Die.........

Dead Lift 3 rep max


workout:5 min row
3 rounds
10x pvc pass through
10x pvc goodmorning
10x pvc deadlift
10x situp

then:deadlift:1 x 10 @ light weight
1 x 5 @ mod weight
3 x 3 work up to 3rm:
My #- started @ 225 went 10, no problem. Then 275 went 5x2, no problem. Then 375 x 3, no problem....... % minuted later my back was killing me. No sharp pain, just a dull pain in the lower back as if I had just killed some moster D.Lift WOD. Scared me a little. Decided to take it easy for the rest of the day. Never have had any back issues and don;t want to start now..... Gonna take one more rest day and reassess how it feels...... Fucking Scary though!!!!

Easy on Paper

10-1 ladder
pull-up
max hold in plank
then:10-1 ladder
push-up
max oh db hold 35/25
then:tabata row for calories

Sounds easy on paper, but this one really gives you what you put into it. Did all chest to bar pull-ups, and in retrospect should have put on my weight vest for the whole damn thing. Was fun and challenging. And def. harder than it seems at first glance. My rowing is getting much stronger and am really feeling comfortable on the C2.

Did not want to do this WOD. But Ross wanted to and who doesn't like a little self inflicted abuse. I know I do, plus there are three elements here I need work on. Thrusters, H.squat cleans, and Box jumps. This was the second WOD of the day. Glad to get it in.
