Running

[Tom Yum]

P.S. as far as the standards go, aside from the ones I mentioned I'm going to give myself the running since I did my mile and a half in 12:36. That's an 8:40 mile average so the 800 m in 4:20 is done and the 9 minute mile, and I can't prove it but I bet 400 in 2:04 is in there as well. That gives me 14 out of 21.

You're slowing down on us!!!

It was on two hours sleep, give a girl a break! Plus I got my 7 min mile months ago so I'm more interested in meeting all these other standards. It's 9 minutes for level 1, 7 isn't until level 2. Hey, where's your six minute mile?

[blitz]

You're probably better than me at running! but I did 27 dips in a row! I probably can't do it now, but in a week or two of training I can get back up there.
And I still stand by my point, you need to sleep more!!! lol

[treelizard]

Congrats on the dips! And you're right about sleeping. I was just listening to a tape about sleep debt and endocrine disregulation. I usually do sleep a lot though, just had to finish homework that Friday night before driving 2 hrs away for an intensive that started at 7 AM.

Weight room in the morning. Worked on hamstrings, quads, calves, biceps, triceps, and even abs. lol. Then i stretched my legs and got loose. After school i went to pre-season practice and we played soccer for a while and then wrestled live for about 5 minutes. Everyone was leaving, except for a couple guys. The only guy who wanted to wrestle was a Heavyweight(260 lbs.). So we started. Ive wrestled this kid before 3 times in the past and have taken him down first each time and rode him out. But this time, since i was all tuckered out from running around on a field, he took me down. I had snapped his head down and he was on both knees. But he lateralled me from there and thats how i ended up on bottom. Then, he almost pinned me. I slipped out and reversed him, and rode him out. He got a hold of my arm and "fat man's rolled" me. Then i reverse him again. 2 minutes is up. 2nd period begins, he starts on bottom. I control him for a few moments and then he "fat man rolls" me again to the same side. And that roll only works well for Heavyweights especially when theyre wrestling a 140 pounder. I then get stuck underneath him and cant get out, its done. There was a good sportsmanship approval/hand shake at the end it was all good.

I've hit a plateau but I'm still working on it...

I have a bit of a cold but I did five rounds of max rep dumbbell bench presses and body rows.

60# BP, 2 reps, 21 body rows
40# BP, 15 reps, 15 body rows
50# BP, 8 reps, 13 body rows
50# BP, 6 reps, 15 body rows
50# BP, 8 reps, 12 body rows
Total: 115, average 8 reps 50# BP and 15 body rows

Followed by a couple negatives and dips and fifteen each of gh situps, frog situps, back extensions, squats. Ten second L-sit.

I'm not happy with these #s, but I'll just push harder next time.

Tom, that's another way of saying "when pigs fly." Have you seen the Level 4 Standards?

No, but you want to master Level 3 first. You can do whatever you set your mind and heart to.

I'm actually still trying to work on Level 1. How come nobody can keep up around here??

Level 4 includes crazy things like 60 ring pushups, 1.5 X bodyweight bench,
2X bodyweight squat, 400m in 1:04, ¾ bodyweight sandbag mile; 800m run 2:20, 40 dead hang pull-ups, 1 mile in 5 minutes, etc. I won't get there in this lifetime.

We've been talking about crossfit?

you have to aim high sometimes if you want to do your best.

[treelizard]

Anyhow, you have to aim high sometimes if you want to do your best.

Tell me that after you hit level 4. Or level 3 for that matter.
