20 days

Man, it's been 20 days since my last workout! And there have been lots of sugary carbs in between. Ahh, the holidays. Well, we finally got back into town and did heavy thrusters today, 3x5. I did:
95
106
117
I'm going to be gone all next week because I'm doing a wilderness first responder course, but after that I am going to get back into it pretty hard.

Team Cavin workout

Team Workout-

Complete 4 rounds for time of:

-7 medicine ball clean ladder
-7 box jump ladder
-Run 2 laps (about 150 yards)

What's a ladder? One person does a rep, then the next person does a rep, then the next person does a rep, etc. After everyone has done one, the first person then does two reps. Go all the way to seven reps.

Did this with Jenny. It took around 30 minutes, but Sam did most of the running with us, or I did the running with him on my shoulders. Jenny killed it, despite being preggers!

Push Jerk

3 Rounds for time of:
10 Push Jerk (3/4 body weight)
100 Jump Rope (or 30 double unders)

I used 115# which was heavy. 12:09
I could only get 10 DU's out and that was at the very end. I need to practice. If I am trying to get stronger, these heavier/slower workouts are going to become the norm.

Special saturday WOD and new pull up bar!

Chris and I got my new pull up bar mounted today and I did the inaugural workout: death by pull ups. In this one, you do 1 pull up the first minute, 2 pull ups the 2nd minute, 3 pull ups the 3rd minute, and on and on until you can't complete the allotted number of pull ups in that minute. I got to 15 pull ups in the 15th minute. That equals a total 120 pull ups! That last and first time I did this I almost completed the 12 pull up on minute 12. So that is an improvement of 42 pull ups! I'm psyched about the improvement and the pull up bar, it's solid! Here's a video of the 14th minute. I finished the 15th pull up on the last round with only 5 seconds left.


Back from break/sickness

I took a break over thanksgiving b/c I was pretty sick. I'm still not 100%, but feeling a lot better. Yesterday I did this overhead walk/burpee workout. Yes, CF Murfreesboro finally has a website!

Today: Fran as RX'D!!! My first attempt at Fran with 95#. Time: 11:52
I'm pretty embarrassed by that time, but that weight is just so heavy for me. I did ALL the pull ups unbroken, so that wasn't a problem at all. It was the freakin weight. I think a pretty hardcore starting strength regiment is in my future
