time 13:45 Rx

This wod was interesting because it can be done two ways-as one continuous motion or broken down.  As a group we decided to try it both ways, starting off broken down and then one motion.  I ended up switching back to broken down at the sixes to gain time.  Definitely harder than it looks.  Afterwards a few of us worked on single box jumps for height starting at 24".  I made it to about 38" before I called it quits for the day.  My fellow jumpers ended at 41"-pretty awesome considering that neither of them had ever jumped higher than 24" before.  It's so fun to see what your body is capable of if you just try.

Another manic monday . . . Wish it were Sunday . . . Cause that's my funday

Usually Mondays are my friends.  They don't torment me like they do Garfield, but when you start off your Monday with you oldest son fracturing his arm . . . Thank goodness that youngings bones are flexy and it is considered a green stick or buckle fracture.  Should be a quick healing process, complete with a cast going on this Thursday.  Too bad though that our plans for swimming pool and waterpark might have to be postponed.

Mondays Wod
one round for time:
10 handstand pushups
20 wall balls 20#/14#
30 toes to bar
40 power cleans 135#/75#
50 burpees
60 sumo deadlift high pull with kettlebell 70#/44#

Time  33:28 banded hspu rest rx (massive sinus infection)  All of the movements were great and the vice was my needing breath/stamina.

Had derby practice for three hours last night.  Did off skate workout first, so lots of variations of squats, tip-toe stuff, etc.  Skated in new temporary site which, unfortunately, is more square then rectangular, so the constant left turns cramped up my back the entire night.  Yuck!  Thinking that a chiropractor visit followed by a deep massage would be wonderful! 

Tues WOD

40-30-20-10
box jumps 24"/20"
double unders
abmat situps

time 17:30 Rx

My time would have rocked if i had a double under.  I did not sub, but practiced them for this wod and yes, they sucked!  Followed up with some overhead squats.

overhead squats
3-3-3-3-3-3
75-85-95-105-110-115#  New pr for me (big smile!)

Yuck!

Spent yesterday morning in and out of Dr. offices complete with a nice morning cat scan of my sinuses.   Looks like my sinuses are all full of crap and if we can't kill it with medicine, I will be having them surgically drained.  Yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck, and one more yuck for good measure.  Going back in next week Friday to recheck.

Having said that, my goal today was just some nice easy lifting.  Nothing too complicated.  Started with some shoulder presses from 45# to 85# in set of 5-10, then switched to jerks up to 110# in sets of 5.  Started the bar with a few warm ups deadlifts at 110# then progressed upto 175#.  Was getting really dizzy after each lift and knew that I should quit.  Will be taking the weekend to relax and hopefully clear my head.  B is on vacation all of next week, so look for 8:30 and 9:30 wods from me Mon-Fri.  Have a great weekend!

Hanging in there . . .

Feeling like dog poo with this stupid sinus infection and the meds aren't doing squat!  Wanted to work on snatches today, but my foggy brain didn't like the idea.  Instead went to my tried and true overhead squat.
Worked groups of 10 from 65# -75#-85#, then some at 95# and back down again. Would have like to have done more, but I am just drained. Here are some more pics from warrior dash.  Some of me and some of the crazy costumes:-) enjoy!

5 muscle ups (sub either 15 ring rows or 15 pullups per round)
10 deadlifts 245#/165#
15 glute ham machine situps
50 yard run/100/150/200

4 rounds total with running distance increasing each time

Time 19:17 155# kipping pullups

Fun little diddy.  Breathing sucked bad today with this sinus infection.  Sucky, sucky, sucky sauce.  Felt good about my weight.  Started with 165#, but after the first few I decided that it might be in my best interest to drop a bit.  Next time.  Need to get my butt working on a muscle up.  Have been having early field trips at the studio and short on time.  For the next two months, I will work on muscle ups after each wod.  Goal is to get one nailed by the fall.

Fresh Meat!!!!!

Most of the BisMan Bombshellz Fresh Meat!  I am totally rocking what my husband called my "80's geek" outfit.  Thank you Ragstock!

Warrior Dash!

Well, maybe I should start reading the fine print!  In my mind the warrior dash was an average 5k with obstacles.  In reality, it was a 5k running up ski slopes with obstacles.  This too may have been fine if I was not in the 2 pm run (aka very, very hot ouside!).  The obstacles were so awesome!  Loved them lots.  Even some fellow runners get over the tall ones.  Poor gal became petrified at the top of the tall cargo net wall.  Regardless, it was lots of fun, I got extremely dirty, and saw lots & lots of crazy costumes.  And, I should add, that I know was to expect for next year's race.  Pictures went out of order.  Bottom one is prerace, top is very dirty right after race, second is after a hose down with fellow crime fighters and third is massive pile of dirty as hell shoes that were donated and will be cleaned and sent to third world countries.

Last week was crazy at the studio with lots of tie-dye field trips and summer camp.  Worked out every day that I was back , just didn't have time to post.  Here is a little recap. 

Tues-was completely tired from late night of driving, so basically did some shoulder presses and push presses with a few overhead squats for good measure.

Wed-worked on my overhead squats again and hit a new PR of 105#.  110# wasn't feeling my love quite yet.  Had derby practice for 2 1/2 hours that eve.  Heck of a lot of fun and a great sweat fest.  Started really nailing my trasitions.
