Front squat - 75lbs
I can't believe how far I've come in a month. A month ago I could do an air squat without shaking. I had to modify an air squat! Today? I did air squats unassisted and added a bunch of weight.0 -
10 strict pull ups
100 straight pushups
5k run under 25 min.
under 25 mins is fabulous - wow. i've been hanging around 33mins or so for a while. need to drop some weight/push or something. excellent!0 -

I'm not there yet. My daughter has picked up running @ college and is running 7 min. miles up to 7 miles. Shamed the old man to stepping it up. Nice profile pic, not much hockey down here in Texas.0 -
We did this last night:
Resting 60 seconds between sets:
Bench Press 2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2, then…
Run 1 mile for time
For the bench I did, 295,315,335,340,345,350,345,335,325,315.
Couldn't run the mile but rowed 2000 meters instead in 7:58 min. before we benched.
I'm tired this morning and tonight we have:
Snatch progression practice
“Bradshaw”
10 rounds for time of:
3 Handstand push-ups
225 pound Deadlift, 6 reps
12 Pull-ups
24 Double-unders
Why can't you do the mile? A sub 8min 2k is pretty quick
I rowed 2k because I pulled a hamstring and couldn't run the mile.0 -
I'd love to be able to do a strict pull up, for some reason I can't and it's so frustrating.
I'd love to be able to do 50 DU without hitting my toes/shins and having to start over.
I've mastered the 20 & 24 inch boxes and would love to hit 30.0 -
My personal milestone for this week - just making it through this week! Coaches went 100s crazy for the week and every WOD was 100 of multiple things, it was pretty Epic and I did pretty well on all of them. I felt really good after all this

Wow, that is mighty! A big change to be proud of0 -

I don't have the power lifting background you do and was pretty hamstring weary M was lunges, T back squats, W clean and jerk. Yesterday was run a mile, 2k row, 200 double unders and some other stuff...legs weren't happy campers but my time was pretty competitive for our box0 -

You mentioned you're 5'10" right? I bet you'll hit that 30" box soon if its a goal. I'm jealous of anything like 50 DUs in a row. My shins scream bloody murder at 200 -

Yep! the height works in my favor for the jumping stuff but no so much on the other stuff. lol I was also a high jumper in HS.0 -
I'm not tall...between 5'8" and 5'9 and 219lbs. My max box jump is 38" and anything taller looks kind of intimidating. We've got a couple guys who did 49" this week....not this kid.0

I was able to strict press 200lbs yesterday. I'm happy about that.0

I got over my fear of 20 inch box jumps last week. I hurt myself doing box jumps earlier last year, and had a mental block about them... until last week. Yay!
I totally understand about having a mental block with box jumps!0 -

Did 7 sets of 3 strict reps on push press last night. I did 185,195,205,215,225 for a single,195,185,185. They were doing front squats for 7 sets of 3 but my hamstring isn't ready. Instructor said do push press. I thought I did pretty good. Would like to be able to do my body weight of 240 for a strict rep.0

Congrats on RX. I would love to be able to RX everything, thats my short term goal. Still struggling with Kiplings ,DU and OHP(shoulder issues).0 -
Thanks!
Yesterday we did deadlift one max reps for everyone to find their number. Some girls did way more than mine, but I was pleased with my 193# OMR. Some other females had more and less of course - one girl had a 235# - totally impressed. Did any of you girls do this yet?
Today was introduced to "Helen" - 14:06 - felt draggy. UGH - still stuck on ring rows for majority of pullups, but did 6 pullups with a band today - 6 more than ever before so i'll take it LOL.
What you guys got lately?0
