More Consistency

"Cindy"
Complete as many rounds in 20 minutes as you can of:
5 Pull-ups
10 Push-ups
15 Squats

21 + 1/3 rounds. I think my PR is 22. Again I am consistantly around 19-21 for this WOD. I need to work more on my stamina with pushups, they just take way too much time. Great workout! Did all pulls with the butterfly!

HEAT!!!

I have come to the conclusion (I have already known this) that the heat plays a factor into your overall performance.

Monday was Cindy which I achieved 19 rounds, my PR is 23. It was darn HOT in my garage even with the fan on, not to mention my pushups still suck.

Tuesday

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.

I made it through 4rounds plus 4 extra. This was more difficult than I had imagined. I feel I did good as I have not done cleans in awhile especially for time.

Today was a rest day and I am thinking about waking up early and running the 10K tomorrow. I am leary, however, as I do not want to get out there and have it be to HOT. It is either run or row, not sure.

Cindy, Cindy. Cindy

22 Even, I was gunning for 23 and one pull up just to say I was ahead of Josh, however, she got the best of me. My weakness is definitely pushups. They have gotten way better, but I am still compensating with my right shoulder, and it drives me crazy. When I try to stabilize it during a WOD I end up slowing way down. Maybe I should try the 100day pushup challenge and focus on strict pushups with great form. On a good note my last "Cindy" was only 14.

Tuesday 05/12/2009
Deadlift 3x5--195#, 205#, 215#
15-12-9--185#
I am feeling great about my strength days and feel it will pay off in the end.

3 rounds of:
1 minute max rep weighted PU
1 minute max rep weighted ring dip
1 minute rest
20# vest
PU 20, 16, 14
Dips 10, 9, 8

This was harder than it looks especially the dips.

Exhausted!!!

I have to agree with Josh, I think this is the most challenged I have been with CrossFit to this point. (refering to Eva)

I completed 15rounds as I set for my goal, here are the times
00:42,1:28,2:20,3:19,4:22,5:33,6:57,8:30,10:07,11:45,13:29,15:19,16:59,18:04,19:25 and five pullups. Pushups are what gave me the trouble.

Today "Eva"
Five rounds for time of:
Run 800 meters
2 pood Kettlebell swing, 30 reps
30 Pull-ups
8:20,19:16,31:28,42:37,54:06
I used 1.5pood as 2 was too heavy, I had poor form and did not want to injury my back with the 2pood.
I am still working through the mental blocks of the discomfort with the WODs. I am getting better and can push myself harder, I just need to do it until I break!!!
