About a week behind…been doing the CFTeam Series…

A. 260PR (15#) also cleaned 270 also a PR (10#) but couldn’t jerk it…was surprised that I was able to clean that to be honest

B. 29 rounds even…although I may have lost a round in there somewhere due to bad counting…I was on pace for 30 and didn’t think I slowed down that much in the last round… I’m sure I’ll feel this one for a few days but…another week and another PR!

A. Built up to a PR of 290#. Almost got 300 (failed the jerk). I don’t know how I managed to fail that considering how high was the bar.

B. 26 rounds I believe, it destroyed my legs.

A day behind. Row/DU This was a lot more painful then I anticipated. I am not great at controlling my breathing during a row so I was heavily winded by the time I got tothe row. Had to take 20 sec to just breathe before I could pick up my rope. I am fairly good at DU after incorporating them EVERY day for months. But it hurt. 122, 125, 125, 112. Lost the will to live in the last 10 sec. B. Becca Voight’s 30 day ab challenge, day 4. Accumlate 5 min of bear crawling. Did a bit of… Read more »

A. Ugly day on the bar. Everything felt heavy. 255.
B. 23 rounds, misread the workout so I didn’t start where I left off, stupid.

Took Wednesday off, and felt good to be going today, despite bad results. Oh well.
