Running

[gregimotis]

I had to modify it as well. I did pull-ups in a gi top hung off a beam, dumbell swings and knee high jump rope for thirty second sprints (I'm not able to do double-unders consistently enough to sprint them.)

I got the whole thing done in forty minutes and a good sweat.




Gonna run intervals today as I didn't get into the gym yesterday at all.

My hamstrings are SO fried still.

Yesterday a little FMA and some Parkour beginner moves as well as push jerks,
30/35/35/40/50/50/60(f)/50/50

CFWU X 1 but I'm doing 5 pull-downs and 5 unassisted dips. Hardre than the grav, I'll add more as they get easier.

Starting a new diet: Don't overeat. The goal is to get down to a 29 inch waist, without having to drop under 180 lbs.

Continuing on with mid distance runs (2-4 miles) and mid distance swims ( 0.25 to 0.5 mile).

Hitting the weight pile maybe 2x per week.

50/40/30/20/10 good mornings, dumbbell thrusters (only 10# each) and jumping on my 8" porch. 32:56. I was more than a little drunk while executing this WOD.

LOL that's some dedication right there.


Took me fifty-five minutes for the whole thing (warm-up and WOD). My medicine ball is less than ten pounds. The back extensions are rough for this twiggy kid.

You mean, dedication to alcohol?

It did improve my speed and jumping ability. Not so sure about my form.

Nice job finishing this.

Ha well, Ya gotta live a little.



I'm not sure how I'm gonna do cleans today - I haven't got a full bar, just hand weights... May have to remedy that situation soon.

[treelizard]

I learned how to do cleans with dumbbells. It's actually harder. Take down the weight a little.

I suck at life... I can (almost) run 4 consecutive 10 minute miles...then I throw up.
My upperbody hates me...right now I don't even want to know how many push-ups I can do, or what my bench is...
the only thing I can count on is lower body strength...I still have strongest lower body and legs of anyone my size I know. Like it actually helps when I can barely use my upper body, and my cardio eats shit.

This'll change within the next few months...I promise.
maybe I'll start a log on here to track my progress...? Aren't there journals on this thing...maybe we should all do this?

You don't need a journal to start working out, stop slacking and start.
I tried working out again and my knee started hurting again =(.

I may be a slacker, but my lungs hurt, not my knees. Knees hurting's a bad sign, buddy...I've always wheezed. Get your stretches in before working out...slow and deep, not static, it may help.

[treelizard]

Did you get your knee looked at?

Did cleans yesterday. CFWU then 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 5 X 60

I was thinkin' the same thing. We might have to start calling him 'Tummy Yum' in honor of his growing panza!



For myself, I didn't get a chance yesterday, so today I'm doing yesterdays WOD I believe it's going to be a rough one for me.
