Jump rope for warm up.

Wow. I subbed a 3:1 ratio of Pull-ups and dips in lieu of Muscle-ups. That sucked. I was thinking I would do this around 30 min. Nah. Not a chance.

54:24

Um, how did I do this sub-40 in May??? No fuckin clue. Granted, this was at a different gym, many globo-gymers were around, and I had a few shots of Jameson last noc before the rack. I'm ashamed. The only good thing was I got off a few kips that were good. Maybe it's been the bodybuilding?? I think it's time to get back to functional fitness. Or, at least a more Crossfit focused workout.

Day 12 for Up-pulls

Tweet

"Fight Gone Bad!"

Three rounds of:
Wall-ball, 20 pound ball, 10 ft target (Reps)
Sumo deadlift high-pull, 75 pounds (Reps)
Box Jump, 20" box (Reps)
Push-press, 75 pounds (Reps)
Row (Calories)

In this workout you move from each of five stations after a minute.The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. This is a five-minute round from which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. On call of "rotate", the athletes must move to next station immediately for best score. One point is given for each rep, except on the rower where each calorie is one point.

Rows were subbed with bent-over barbell rows.

WHAT??? FGB again?? Yes. My sweety came to the gym with me and did FGB for the first time in her life. Of course we decreased the weight and used a smaller box, but she did well once she quickly mastered the lifts. I have met the woman of my dreams, no I'm not kidding. There was no complaining, no quitting, no stopping to rest. I didn't hear, "Crossfit is too hard." The hottest thing in the world is to watch a beautiful woman bust out FGB. I found the one. I'm in love.

Subbed 45lb SDHP for a rower

Looking back I could have tried harder. It did lay my ass out. As I lay there panting some geriatric bodybuilders stood there waiting patiently for me to get off the squat rack. (I went to the Newburgh location since I am on vacation this week.) They actually look very fit for their age. But their isolationist movements showed their fitness levels. No disrespect intended for anyone at that age that looks fairly in shape and still makes it to the gym for hours on end. I just don't understand why they would look so fit but still have to do assisted pull-ups. Bodybuilding is purely cosmetic, and that shows by the tight gear people wear when they do it along with the lack of real fitness. There's just not enough strength.

So I didn't give up the squat rack-they were just gonna use it to do "shrugs" and did another WOD:

Back Squat

5-5-5-5-5 reps

135-155-175-185-195

Not my best, but not my worst and I tweaked my back.

101 Ring Push-ups
101 Pull-ups

23:24

I decided not to bodybuild. I don't really care for it, but will continue to do it after a little break. One fella approached me after my workout and asked, "Are you the Crossfit guy?" Well yes, yes I am. He's like, "You guys are some of the fittest guys in the gym!" I'll take that.

So I told him how to get into it. And maybe I will get some time to show him a few lifts. No need to not spread the word.

Warm-up was Flutter kicks and rope jumps.

Previous time was 16:18 but didn't have the extra 100m per round.

She did really well for 34 degrees and starting out with Crossfit. I'm proud of her!

Complete as many rounds as possible in 20 minutes of:

10 Pull-ups
65 pound Thruster, 10 reps

Post rounds completed to comments

CFWU x 2 less PU's and Dips

8 rounds.

This is after being sick for the last 5 days. I almost puked. In fact, I think I might have left some lung pieces on the ground from heaving so badly. Bout half a round worse than last time. Form was good though. Probably better than last.
I just got my new Againfaster.com custom portable pull-up bar, which I intend to install in my basement for continuation of the 100 pull-up challenge. It's really cool.

400 Squats.

Sucked. Legs=jello.

Tweet

Day 5 100 Push-ups

6:04

Did this before I attempted the bench press and some bodybuilding. Def detrimental to the bench. But, I did get a good pump. I'm gonna hafta space the 100 day challenges away from the other stuff. Make it it's own workout (kinda).

Tweet

With a continuously running clock do one pull-up the first minute, two pull-ups the second minute, three pull-ups the third minute... continuing as long as you are able.

Use as many sets each minute as needed.

Post number of minutes completed to comments.

10 min.

Previous time: 9 min

Pull-up day # 5

Push-ups in a bit.

10 min vigorous rope jumping.

My back is healed for the most part. It's scary when I tweak it, but i really let it rest this weekend so time to get back to work.

Tweet

Push-up day #4 6:31

4 Pull-ups

Thrusters tweaked my back a bit, so I'm glad I didn't run today.

Tweet

Thruster 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps

Post loads to comment.

CFWU x 2

95lb Thruster x 3 to get the feel

135-155-185-195-200-205(fail)-205(fail)

Just couldn't get the 205 out of the hole. I thought this would be easy, but I have been wailing on my upper body so much lately. Thrusters are my bane, but perhaps one of the best lifts to do for sheer strength. It's still candy to get more than my body weight over my head from a full squat.

Muscle-up practice and some bodybuilding.

Angie took care of Pull-up day #3 and the 100 push-ups. I'm wrecked.

250 rope jumps to get the juice flowing


33:03

Again, like last time, I had to continually improvise as people kept getting in my way and delaying the time. Seriously. All I need is a f@$%ing place to do pull-ups and a few minutes on a sit-up bench. But some knucklehead decides to get on my GHD situp bench and do what??? Crunches. Give me a break. Let's all train our abs half-assed now. I need a Crossfit gym...

Tweet

No A.M. workout-I had to go vote.

Day 2:

2 Pull-ups
100 Push-ups 6:58

Slower than yesterday, but to be expected since I am smoked.

Tweet

Beginning today, I am going to start with Steve's recommendation and do 100 days of the things I hate: Pull-ups. I'm also doing Push-ups cause I used to be able to knock those out better. 100 day's means adding one every day until reaching 100.

Day 1:

1 Pull-up
100 Push-ups

Push-up time: 6:41

Tweet

Shoulder press 1-1-1-1-1 reps
Push press 3-3-3-3-3 reps
