Re-Set

Wanted to work on my clean and jerk. Probablt my weakest lift. RH saw me struggling with weight I should kill. Brought the weight back down. Re-set my movement and the transition from clean to jerk. I felt great and gave me a better knowledge of how it should feel and work. Then worked my way back up hit two smooth lifts back to back, up the weight and rest 1 minute in between sets. It was amazing to feel a little more confident in my movement and approach. Robert is an amazing coach, and the longer I coach/ train at CFD the more I see it. By then I was whooped and felt great about it.

then

10 minute Double Under test: 464

then

4 rounds for time of
400 mtr run
12 kb swings at 70lbs
21 ring push ups.

My time- 15:55

Was gassed from the cleans and DU, cramped a little in my left quad and swallowed back vomit several times. That being said I really liked the WOD and wasn't to beat up about having to hold back some. Felt great.

Another Faaaaast.

So for the past month I've been playing around with my eating habits. I mean I didn't make it to Regionals, so now is the time to fool around with training and eating. Did a 3 day juice fast about three weeks ago, was horrible, glad I did it, but very mentally tough. Then the following week I did a 24hr fast. Not bad at all, felt great the next day and was able to kill a big SWOD and met con at CFP. Today I am doing my second 24hr fast. Its convenient to do them while I'm on shift at station 12, that way I can continue my 2 on one off training schedule, but it can be very tough when every time I fast these guys are eating pizza. Big cheesy, NY style pizza, with garlic bread and wings and soda. If I was eating I wouldn't be fazed, but when I'm purposely starving myself in the name of fitness, and the vainess of my six pack, it can be torture. I do well be just going into the weight room, do some stretching, or reading. Had a cheat meal Friday night which taught me a lesson. Meal consisted of fresh cut and fried potato chips covered in blue cheese, sliced chicken, and balsamic reduction, then some bread with butter, salad with Italian dressing, and a big juicy bacon cheeseburger with french fries, and glass of red wine. Tasted amazing, and was just a little too much food, but felt happy. An hour later I was sweating, cramping and feeling like I should have the two finger dessert. Was able to tough it out and fall asleep, but realized that for almost a year I've been semi Paleo, and for 6 months I've been strict with small cheats, and recently I've been 100% Paleo. And I just can't go all out with a meal without feeling some sort of repercussions. Sucks!!! So I'm fasting, and will start off tomorrow with a big, but clean breakfast , and kill a WOD and set a PR with my 5x5 back squat. I Fucking love CrossFit. I has made me a stronger, faster, more aware human. It still changes my life and amazes me to this day.

Fran PR @ 4:06
I hurt me bad.... Hit it with everything I had. Will hit it harder next time.

Wednesday, May 19, 2010

CF Daytona Rx

100 double unders
750 mtr row
75 double unders
500 mtr row
50 double unders
250 mtr row
25 double unders

My time- 16:25

Owned the white board. was nice. But MK and RH could have totally had my number. They were off, and didn't hit it as hard as they could've.

SNATCH!!!!!!!




Worked on snatch. have been stuck at 175 lbs. for a long time. Finally got to body weight. Hit 185 very smooth. Then pulled 190 and failed three time. I have them, just wasn't hitting my mark. Need to keep back tighter on the oull and catch and keep my hips moving forward not back. If you watch the video you 'll see the mistakes.

Then did the CFP Rx WOD.

8 min  AMRAP. @ 95lbs.
3 power snatch
6 hang power snatch
9 over head squat.

Did- 5 rounds + 2 hps.

CrossFit FootBall 05/7/10

Bench Press 5 x 5 @ 225

Hand stand holds x 3- 1:06/ 1:21/ 1:28
Max strict chin ups x 3- 15/ 15/ 15
then

5 rounds for time of
Power Clean x 5 @ 70% of your 1 rep max ( used 165#)
70# kettlebell Farmers carry x 100 mtr

Time- 13:40

Was a good one, and managed all but one of the farmers carries with setting the weight down once each trip at the turn around. Cleans went well, but grip def was the thing that made them feel like work. That and the fact that we did the whole WOD outside and it was pushing 90 degrees and 100% humidity. Fucking gross out. But was a great WOD and Levi on my heels and passing me made it much better. But I did pull it off at the last second.

FAST,,,,ING

Juice Fasting.
3 days
1 juice drink mixture of fruit and veggies for breakfast
1 juice drink mostly veggies  and little fruit for dinner
Lots of water
Some Detox tea and little Green tea to get going in the morning.

4/28/10- 188lbs

It hasn't been to bad. I mean I feel pretty good, a little cranky, and sluggish, but the hunger hasn't gotten bad yet. The crew decided to make a big breakfast today of all days and the whole station smells like bacon. There is even a plate of left over bacon sitting on the counter. They have also decided to make it a pizza night (one of my all time favorite foods), and they will proceed to devour slice after delicious slice this evening. I will be reading, listening to music, anything to make the time past. Tommorow will be worse.

Monday, April 26, 2010

We had fun......



Stupid Youtube took my audio.....

Looking for a PR

Dead Lift
Work up to 1 rep max.

My #-445 lb.



What a mind fuck. Put on weight didn't realize a set of 45lb plates were really 35lb plates. Stupid mistake. Thought I'd worked up to 465,,, hit 445. PR by 5lbs. either way. I want more. Then

3 rounds of
315# dead lift
50 mtr sprint
25 sit ups
3 min rest between rounds.

Not sure of my times but after round one I droped the weight to 275. The objective was to keep the rounds around 2min each. My last two were about 2-2:15. All and all a good WOD, fun and challenging.

Monday, April 19, 2010

Back Squats

Back Squat
5 x 5

My #s- 225, 245, 255, 265, 275

then...

500 mtr Row x 4
3 min rest between rds.

My times- 1:43.7/ 1:44.2/ 1:42.0/ 1:45.4

Felt great. Hitting more squats, going big all the time, and more agressive rows.

Sunday, April 18, 2010

CF Football 4/16/10

5 x 5 Hang Power Clean

185-155-165-175-185

Really wanted to work on form. Felt great, but after reviewing video (which I accidently erased) saw that my hips slightly raise right as I begin my lift. Trying to work on keeping hip and lumbar alignment throughout the lift.Then...

5 rounds 2 min between rounds of @ 70% of 3 rep work.
3 high pulls
3 HPC
3 PP
3 PJ
3 GM

Went very well. The weight started to catch up around 4th round. Was fun, and good repitition work. Doing CFF with Levi is a blast...... Shitty I lost the video,,, I was good, and a great teaching tool.....

Thursday, April 15, 2010

Ole Willy from CFP

Ole Willy
AMRAP 8 min.
225lb deadlift x 5
24" box jump suicides 3 box
20lb ballslam x 7

My #- 6 rounds dl, bj, and 4 bs.

Was very fun. Great combo of moves and just the right weight. Box jumps mixed with the deadlift is key, and throwing in the ballslam breaks up the two but gives no added relief. Loved it, want 7+ next time......

OHSQ

OHSQ

5-5-3-3-3-1

Snatch Balance

Snatch Balance

Now I do Annie,,, that slut.

Annie
50-40-30-20-10
Double Unders
Sit Ups

Time-6:07 PR.




And a load of bullshit. Wanted more. Sub 6 minutes will be mine. I'm doing Annie once a week till I catch up with MK. I really don't see how she does it. I think she hit 5:15 yesterday...... fucking owned it. I want it. Then.

4 rounds for time:
400 mtr run
21 thrusters (bar)
9 burpees

Time- 15:26

Went well. The run turned a little into a shuffle a points, still working on that. Was able to steady roll through it though. Lower back was very tight, not sure why.

Wednesday, April 7, 2010

Wish I'd Done Annie

For Time:
500 mtr Row
150 Double  unders
50 Burpees

Time-9:41       Totally could kill this if I try again. My DU where horrible. Couldn't string together more than 15-20 in a row. Finished the row around 1:40 I think and was able to push throught the burpees pretty good. Would like another shot at this one.

3x5 weighted Pull ups at 50lbs
3x15 reverse rowers.
2000 mtr row- 7:57.3 ( can totally kill that too)

Tuesday, April 6, 2010

Heavy Weight Moving Fast

ARAMP in 15 Min.
315 Deadlift 5 reps.
10 Toe to Bar

8 rounds even. This was a good one. 315 was the perfect weight for me and my t2b were smooth. Had a real good rythem and stayed steady. Coulda' had one more round if  some one was pushing me, but happy all the same.

SWOD- 8x2 Power snatch @ 155. Felt good, maybe go heavier next time, nit sure about form, but Robert didn't correct me at all so maybe they were okay.

Monday, April 5, 2010

Strength WOD, and Then an Oldie (Diane)

Squat 3x10 @ 70% of 5 RM

Press 5 RM

Did the work at 185.... wanted to go heavier, but doing as ~ Rx is okay too. Press was 135#, could've gone bigger, but got right into the main site WOD.

Diane- 21-15-9 for time of:
Deadlift 225
Handstand Push ups

My time- 10:54

A PR I think, have to check. Done as Rx, deads were light, hspu went okay. still need to do them on the regular. Dialing in diet will help, get off this extra weight. Was fun though. Great combonation of moves.

Shorty But Goody...

Complete 8 rounds for time of:

3 Front Squats 185 lbs
8 Strict Dips

My time- 9:01

Front Squats Weren't too bad. They were a great combination with the ring dips. Was able to push right through, but did the WOD solo at Cf Daytona and would've been more aggressive if I had a partner. Still loving CF Football.

Wednesday, March 24, 2010

And it Begins

Well my diet really hit the shitter for the whole week + of 3/15 - 3/22. I ate like I was gonna die, and didn't do much as far as any WODs or lifting. Started a strict Paloe regiem yesterday got in my first taste of intensity after class. Did the basline stats for CF Daytona, being that everyone is keeping to a 30 day paleo challenge.

500m Row-1:31.2
max push ups-50 (weak sauce)
Helen-9:24 (everything unbroken, but equally weak)

I def. feel these days of drinks and food and excess. Building back up. Keeping strict with my CF Football strength work, and following WODs from the mian site, or CF Daytonas Rx stuff. Here is the begining

Complete 3 sets of:

10 Rep Squat (5 RM)
*Use your 5 RM squat for this workout.
*Perform as many reps as possible...put the bar in the rack..rest..do another rep and continue till you get 10 total reps.

225#. Not my 5 rep max. Kinds thought it was close, but it wasn't. Hit 6 and 4, 6 and 4, and then 10 straight. So didn't really accomplish the goal of the WOD, but hey its a start.

Saturday, March 6, 2010

8x400

8x400 with 90 sec rest in between each.

19:26. Nothing to compare it with, but it sucked. Plus there was a serious head wind on the back half which ends in sand. Stupid right. With 10:30 minutes of rest alotted my actual running time was 8:56 for 2 miles. Sounds good if you put it that way.

215lb clean and jerk. Was not a PR, and I am still not getting under the bar. Could have so much more, but need to work on it. Wrecking my wrists is having a mental as well as physical screw on me. Bullshit!!!..

Draged tire too. Tough after those sprints.

2 min drill

Deadlift 315lbs AMRAP in 2 minutes:

24 reps. Went into it with a game plan. Reps of 5, till I can't any more. It worked beter than last time when I did 9 straight and it slowed me down so much I finished with 19.

Snatch

Snatch 1 rep max

Worked up to 175. Almost body weight. With more practice I will surpass it. Just need to do it more often,,, plus it looks pretty ugly right know.

Thursday, February 25, 2010

Hit me up on FaceBook

http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?ref=profile&id=1542460608

Monkey Grip

3 RFT

5 Rope Climb 15 ft.
50 Double Unders
25 Wall Ball

My time-15:26

Still not able to consistently get the rope locked between feet. Luckly upper body and grip keep me from totally sucking ass. All of our jump ropes have broken and we are left with a weighted rope that wooped me literally, have the welts to prove it. Wall ball with a sand filled basketball isn't quite as forgiving as a dyna max or slam ball, but it works. Kept moving, and pushed through it. Happy to start the day off with that bad boy, whats next????

To Finish Fast

For Completion

3 rounds
8  Jumping Back Squats 105# with 20# chains
2 min AirDyne 20 calorie minimum
3minute rest
3 rounds
8 Split Legs 120# Sandbag
2 min Row 40 calorie minimum
3minute rest
3 rounds
10 Burpee Pull ups
1 min FLR w/ rings and 20in box

This was an awesome WOD. Def. one for those who want to push themselves, and are into some serious lactic acid build up. Was glad to have TG and RH there to keep me moving and pushing. Anything with sandbags are my new favorite. They just don't bullshit you, either you can or can't. Came into it with my legs a little jacked from the heavy back squats with Dave and the air squates with Nick. This was just the icing on the cake.

Linda aka Three bars of DEATH!!!!!!!

"Linda"
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
Deadlift 1.5 body weight @ 270#
Bench Press body weight @ 180#
Clean .75 body weight @ 135#

My time-15:48

Killed it. Deadlift was tough, but no bar staring or bullshitting. Picked up the weight, dropped it, and picked that bar up right away. Bench press was unbroken every set. Next time I will up the weight on the bench. And the cleans actually felt really light since we've been hitting so many heavy cleans at cf daytona these past few weeks. Charged right through that shit, and was able to walk the line of intensity. All this hard work shows up when challenged and it feels good. Love it. WOD it like you stole it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sand is for Dummies

5 rft or 10 min. which ever comes first.
2 muscle up
4 sandbag get ups 120#
8 GHD sit ups

My time-10:28

Time ran out but I just finished it cause it was a fun WOD. Love these sand bags. There is no give to them you have to have the strength to play with them at all. Know if I di it again I will finish in time. My kind of work!!!!
http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=522908003079&ref=mf

4x400

4x400 meter sprints
3 min rest between runs

My #s- :52-:57-:52-:59

Felt great. Ran with RH and Levi. Helped push me hard. First three rounds was on RH's heels till the end and sprinted right up to him. Helps me to stalk someone. On round four I was able to push all out and take the heat solo. Like this one.

Tabata Your F*%#ing Mom

Tabata Mash-up          

Kettlebell  Swings 53lb= 87

Ring Dips= 59

Push Press 30lb= 70

Push Ups= 52

Damn this taxed my tricepts. Really felt it when I went to the P.Press and P. ups. They really sucked, especially when those are normally strong moves for me. No rest in between movements, didn't realize there was a 1 min perscribed rest in between each. Better that I  just went balls out. Post WOD did 100 abmat sit ups and several minutes of planks. Was good work all in all. Wish I'd had the initiative to have done some heavy lifting in the a.m. Slept like shit and took a 3 hr nap after lunch. Screw it, I needed the rest. Rest day tomorrow, and then hard work all next week. Gonna bring it crazy. Diet has been locked down for the most part, normally very easy to keep it clean here at work, but its Kellers last day here so they bought Cheesecake and Keylime pie. Fuck it right,one piece won't kill me. Try to keep it to that one.

Did Work

Worked up to 1 rep max C/J

215# twice. No PR (225). Lack of intensity. Was at box alone, except for my dog, who just stared at me while I cursed and yelled while I failed with 225 three times. Fuck it. Not my day to hit it. Then.

3-3-3-3-3-3-3 Weighted pull-ups @ 50#.
&
21/21 GHD sit-ups/ Double unders 3 rounds

Taught the 4, 5, 6, pm classes. Went well, but a little crowded for the programing. Nick is fresh of his Oly cert and was more than happy to help out and put the classes through a proper Bergner Warm-up. Went over some simple things to always remember when lifting overhead. Was fun to have another coach with me, and to have the box all to ourselves after all the classes were over. Sara stuck around to watch how its really done.

3 rft
500 mtr row
135# c/j x 12
95# thrusters x 15

My time-15:30

Felt good, love hitting WODs with Nick. He keeps me hungry and on my toes. Sara was impressed. Not a lot of new crossfitters see people go into the black. A very productive day. Did work, worked, and loved all of it.

I finished 38th out of 55 in the advanced division. Most challenging and amazing weekend ever. Loved every painful moment of it, even more than I thought I would. Felt great that I didn't crumple under the pressure to preform. This was a good taste of what sectionlas will be like. Now I have several weeks to get to that pinacle of my ability. Wish I had more time to prepare, but can't wait for it to come all at the same time. I have fallen in love with CF even more than before, if thats possible. My CF Daytona family has really become a solid rock in my life. They never make me feel out of place, or doubt my ability. They build me up, push me, and give me a shoulder to lean on when its hard to keep going. I feel very strongly about the people I train with and want them to know how much it means to me that they are there for me, and that they allow me to be a part of their lives. Thank you all, the members, my fellow athletes and trainers. I know have a family here in my new home Crossfit Daytona.



We are Crossfit. It will change your life if you let it.

•In a sense, CrossFit is a gift. It's a gift we've all been given by someone, a friend, a family member, someone you run into in the grocery store. It's a gift we need to pass on. It's the desire to pass on this gift that has me seeking affiliation.


•I have trouble remembering the person that I was prior to that as it [CrossFit] has changed my life and who I am so profoundly. Over the past 3+ years I have had the pleasure of sharing my love of CrossFit with literally hundreds of people.

•It's not even just our own CrossFit box. It's a chance for us to promote change and growth in each other. It's a chance for us to share our knowledge and passion with others, and give back to the community we grew up in and have grown to love. We thank you for giving us that chance.

Very happy with the effort. HSPU have come so far in just one month. Sucked it up with the squats and did them Tabata style. Wanted 60 for my pull ups and 60 for my push ups. But kicked it till muscle failure and that's all I can ask for.

400 mtr run

My time-19:06

Par 20 min. happy with that. Wish my wrists were healed so I could've made those thrusters as Rx. But C/J was a good sub. Was able to make the run a run and not a weak shuffle. I have to pass that pain threshold mentally. Make myself just fucking RUN........ This was the WOD#1 of the day.

Nice and quick

21-15-9
Sumo Dead lift High Pull (115lbs)
Single leg Renegade Rowers (50lbs)

my time- 5:04

Wanted to use thrusters but my stupid wrists are still fucked up. Not sure what I'm gonna do about this. They only bother me when they are hyper extended under a load. My HSPU are there. Was knocking out sets of 4-5-6 right after the WOD. Loving it.

Dead Lifts

Dead Lift 3-3-3-3-3

345-375-385-345-365

PR by 10lbs. Felt good. Still a little scared to go bigger fast. But liked it. Repping out big weight can be a little scary.

Burpee and Row

5 rft
500 mtr row
10 burpees:

My time- 15:09

A real burner. Was fun, liked the pair together. Legs, hips, back. Will try this one again.

21 weighted pull-ups (30lbs)
21 GHD sit-ups

120 mtr run
10 wall ball (20 lb)

3 rounds of
25 kb swings (1.5 pood)
15 slam ball (20lb)

then
400 mtr run

My time-11:56

Was one minute behind Robert. I wanted that one bad. Went balls out, but should hit those last swings unbroken. Gotta dig deeper to not ever stop. Liked it, time was very good, but want to catch him with these ones.

Micheal

"Micheal"
3 rounds for time
800 mtr run
50 back extensions
50 GHD sit-ups:

My time- 26:10

Never did this one before and don't know many who have. Just cause it sucks and kinda makes you feel sick cause of all the up and down and all the blood rushes to your head. Was happy I did it though. And was able to still push it pretty hard even though I was alone. Maybe because I just wanted it to be over....

Lynne

"Lynne"
Body weight bench press max reps
Pull-ups max reps
5 rounds, for reps:

My #-203

This is a 23 rep increase from last time, the bench virtually the same, but my pull-ups have gotten much stronger. Considering this was # 3 WOD, and my grip was totally shot. Very happy with my numbers. And my hands stayed in one piece. Nice.....
315 lb dead lift max reps in 2 min. 19. 4 more since Oct. 20 should be coming soon.

This was a a little mind numbing

Three Rounds for Time:

50 mtr walking lunges
100 mtr broad jumps
250 mtr run



My time-18:30

It was different, that's for sure. A bit boring, but no less difficult. Was able to push it cause I was working with Tanner. Any one stronger or faster than you makes for the best partner. And it was really cold out there.

5k row & Cleans







5K row-20:27.3

A first for me. Wanted to try it for some time but always found something more fun to do. Sucked it up and hit it hard. Loved it, besides it being kinda boring, but wanna get it down below 20 min.

Cleans- 10-5-2-2-1

Fooled around for a lil and then went big. Got up 205 easy, then fucked up and threw 215 up got under it to low when I could have just quarter squated and caught it. Bar came down hard and crushed my wrists. Hurt bad. Still sore. Nothing major, just gotta receive the bar at the proper height next time. I have the power to throw the weight up high enough to complete the lift, just have to work on finding the right place to receive the bar.

Over Head Squats and then some

OHS
10-5-3-3-2-1

Worked up to 205(previous PR) and managed it as a 2rep max. Can go heavier, but was happy with the effort.

AMRAP 8 min-
8-70lb kettle bells swings
12-20in box jumps

7 rounds even. Really burned up the legs, but was happy with it. Always feel like I could squeak out more, but its easy to think that in retrospect.
