I'm happy with these numbers except the strict press. I am now backsquatting 12 pounds more than my body weight and 18 pounds over 1 and a half times body weight. Only 69 pounds to go until double body weight! I am also happy that my muscles feel a bit fatigued but not injured. Can't wait to do this one again after training for a few more months:) We are off cycle now so will be doing Elizabeth tomorrow. Those 400 m sucked especially the last 200 m of each run!!!

Friday Eve.
5 Rounds for time
400 m run
30 anchored situps
15 deadlifts 250/175
This was a great workout, can't wait to get the GHD. The runs were good, sit ups are my break but those damned 175 lb deadlifts felt like forever:) Broke them into sets but got er done. Back feels great so technique must have been o.k. John scaled to 225 lbs and has been pissed at himself since he finished. He also sat down after round four and thought he was done, I yelled "there is five rounds" I never saw him jump up and run so fast:)Cold/Flu is getting better but not willing to give up the Contac C just yet.
John's time: 23:19
Hollie's time: 27:38
And to the Keg for the Fajita's and Jessie's little treats:) Cheers!!!

This and That Oct. 9/08
I have had a couple extra days off due to not feeling like it. Today I still didn't feel like it but needed to sweat.
6 Rounds
500m row
25 box step ups
15 dumbbell split cleans
I must say this worked up the sweat I was looking for. My time was a slow 35:37. My first round was 6:16 and my last round was 6:02. Don't know how the other rounds went but am happy that the last was as good as the first. My row times were a little slower as the rounds went on but the step ups and cleans got easier and quicker. I look forward to feeling 100% hopefully within the next couple days. I finished off with 100 sit ups and 10 pull ups, just for good measure:)

We had a visit from Sterling yesterday afternoon to tackle the .com and what a shit storm!!!!
5 Rounds
15 deadlifts 135/95
12 hanging power cleans
9 front squats
6 push jerk
Time: 19:10
This was both a physical and mental battle. My nervous system was still a little shook from Barb so by the time this battle was over my body was spent. I started at 95 for the first round and then dropped to 85 for the rest. I look forward to Rxing this baby next time. 1's of weighted pullups today - thank god:)

Barbara!!! October 6/08
While in Maui in March we found a really cool tatto parlour. Five of my family members kept that place busy for the afternoon. These are the tattoos of my mom, brother, sister in law, Leanna and myself. We thought we were really funny.
Well.... !! I must say this was the worst of the Biotches for me. At the end of round one I seriously thought "there is no way in hell I'm going to be able to do that 4 more times. Round two felt a little better. At the end of round four I stood doubled over outside waiting for the relief of Mr. Pukie. Leanna told me 1 minute left mom. I staggered back to the chaulk bucket, then to the pull up bar. I grabbed a hold, made the stern - o.k. I'm the boss look, took a few good deep breaths, Leanna counted down from 10 and off I went. I was trying to stay under 5 minutes for the last round but the damned pushups were killing me. First set of 5, then threes, two's, it all became a blur. Keep going mom, come on Hol, they kept me motivated. At the end, again looking forward to the Mr., in fact, it has been about an hour and I'm still feeling a little delirious.

Clean and Jerk Oct. 2/08
With a continuously running clock do one 135 pound Clean and Jerk the first minute, two 135 pound Clean and Jerks the second minute, three 135 pound Clean and Jerks the third minute... continuing as long as you are able.
Use as many sets each minute as needed.
This is pretty self explanatory. Leanna and I chose to do squat cleans at 95 lbs.
I finished round five with about 8 seconds to spare. I didn't think to have a small rest and try to get a few in round 6. I think I will do power cleans next time because I know I can power clean 95 fairly easily. ( For the first while anyway). I did split jerk this time as my arms felt more tired than usual after Wednesday's arm assault.
5 Rounds squat cleans 95 lbs
John 7 rounds power cleans 135 lbs

Not really Nate!
Today's wod for the John and I
AMRAP in 20 minutes
6 pull ups
6 stationary dips
4 handstand pushups from 4 boxes piled high
8 dumb bell swings 45 lb for men, 35 lb for women
Even though this was really off whack it was hard as hell. I seriously wanted to quit pretty much from round 4. The pull ups seemed to be the break, if that tells you anything. Anyway, enough snivelling. John 14 rounds even, Hollie 13 rounds and the pullups. My dips became assisted after the first round with toes resting lightly on the box.

John's Backsquats 5x5
For warm up John rowed 500 m for time 132.7, we aren't sure what his PR was, so we will go with this.
Back Squats 5x5
Warm up: 10 x pvc pipe, 5 x 65, 3 x 155
Lifts: 5 x 190, 5x 205, 5x 225, 5x 245, 3x 265
We tweaked John's form a little, keeping back and stomach tight, taking the big breath and holding and trying to keep the bar in alignment with the heels. He is looking very strong on this lift. It was shoulder's bearing the weight that was the giving him the grief. I can't wait for max lifts on this one.
John took Chad to soccer tonight so he wasn't able to tackle this workout until about 9:00 p.m. which sucks because he's up at 5:00 a.m. Earlier next time:)
