Week in Review

Solid week getting back into things at the Box.  Monday, Wednesday and Friday.  Good mix of weights and cardio.  Deadlifts on Monday did not really hit me until late on Wednesday.  Pushing the water and recovery mix after workout helped quite a bit.  Wednesday was a little setback in terms of joints.  Wednesday was pushjerks (a real uncomfortable lift) and split jerks.  My wrists started to give me a little problem so I need to check into strengthening them with racquet ball squeezes, etc.  Friday was a nice WOD of LSits (gymnastics movements) which I am very week in then a Metcon of crunches, chest to bar pullups (i can do 1 of these without band now) and 200 m run.

Solid rest day on Saturday with the girls and golf planned today.  Looking forward to another week in the box.  Need that stress relief from work.

Pull ups and deadlifts

Back in the box after my full week at Sturgis. I am positive that I will be in quite a bit of pain tomorrow.  Pullups and deadlifts on the menu.

WOD1 3RM weighted Pullups

I did 5# which is great in my opinion. I can still knock out 3 reps after a long time off.  Time to really bear down and knock it out.

WOD2
12-10-8
Muscle ups (2x pull ups and dips)
70% 1RM

Used a green band for pullups and 2 boxes for dips. 315 on the deadlift. A bit gassed but finished in 18:21.

Used my new Reebok crossfit shoes. Good stability but need to break them in quite a bit. Tomorrow's 10 rounds of 200 meter run and 10 hang squat cleans will probe them out.
