Laziness

Laziness has kept me from keeping a continuous log of our workouts over the last week or so.

Crossfit SoCal WOD:

2 rounds:

100 x double unders

30 x dumbbell push press (25/15)

20 x bench press (115/65)

After both rounds, run 800m

Cracked Back

I forgot to post yesterday's WOD, so here it is:

10 rounds for time of:

135/95 lb deadlifts

15 push ups

Jess: 20:35

Wally: 24:02

Because that pretty much kicked our asses and killed our lower backs, we kind of just made up a good workout today and did a mix of stuff.

Helen

This morning's two mile run was good...it sucked, but was good. We pushed ourselves hard, and found that, yes, cardio was slightly an issue; however, the larger issue was leg strength/endurance/lactic acid. I admit, I was hurting in my chest slightly, as should be the case with any good cardio, but that will get better. We are going to mix things up a bit with some long distance and speed training in addition to the medium distance runs to try and push the boundaries on what our legs/bodies and cardio systems can sustain.

Jess: ~12:53

Wally: 12:48

Crossfit WOD (Helen):

3 rounds of 400m run + 1.5/1 pood kettle ball swing (21 reps) + 12 pullups

Wally: As rx @ 13:59

Jess: As rx @ 17:41...did run and kettleball as prescribed...pullups for the first time were done with proper form and completion through utilization of assist bands...

We are getting there and definitely see an increase in strength...it will be nice to see where we are in a couple of months.

Two Miles

It was a Crossfit rest day, so we ran two miles.

Wally: 14:48

Jess: ~15:30 (Didn't keep time)

Shoulder Presses

Yesterday Jess and I just ran 2 miles...at a very good pace, but forgot to time ourselves.

Today, the Crossfit WOD was:

7 x Shoulder Presses

Wally:

7 x 95

Jess:

7 x 45

"War Frank"

Today's Crossfit WOD:

3 rounds of:

25 muscle ups...the replacement is supposed to be 75 pullups/75 dips (25 ring dips)

100 squats

35 GHD sit ups

Wally...only two rounds of:

25 pullups...with plenty of jumping pullups/25 ring dips

100 squats

35 situps

I felt ashamed after this workout, but it pretty much kicked my ass!

Jess worked a 12 hour shift today and wasn't feelin' it. It was also our eating splurge today...pizza and wings...nice.

Out Of Town Workout

On Saturday, we spent the day in Austin and actually managed to get a workout in. We did 25 squats, pushups, and sit ups...followed by 50 of the same.
