Fight Gone Bad
Score: 219

although this was a tiny improvement over the last time i did this, i was not happy about this score. the altitude had way more of an impact on me then I thought it would. couldn't recover between exercises. turns out it sucks to work out when you can't breathe...

8/4

Before Class...More Cardio fun with Ty: smile
1000m row
200 DU
750m row
75 Box jumps
500m row
50 burpees
250 m row
2x 100m sprint
TIME: 35:54

It should be noted it took me 12 minutes to do the DU, meanwhile Ty had already finished her 750 row and box jumps when I got back on the rower... My rope is a bit too long, going to try shortening and hope for the love of god it helps!!

Master's Class:

Warmup:
Double Tabata
Pistons-held 9 every round
Hollow Rocks- held 14 every round

Strength:
Strict Press
5x65#
5x70#
4x70#
4x70#
4x70#

Finisher:
5 rounds...
1 min max reps for each exercise, then 2 min rest
Bench Press (65#): 22, 17, 15, 13, 13
KB Swings (1pd): 22, 20, 20, 18, 17
HPC (75#): 7, 20, 20, 18, 17
TOTAL: 259

Upper body is completely SHOT after all those ring dips yesterday. BP felt twice as heavy as it was. First round did BP, KB, then HPC, which killed the forearms, hence the very low rep count on the first round of cleans. Switched to HPC, BP, KB for the remaining rounds which helped.

Very much looking forward to Back Squats tomorrow since I am wondering if I will be able to lift my arms tomorrow...

8/3

warmup...
3 rounds
5 push up variation
10 K2E

HPS:
5x65#
5x70#
5x75#
2x80#
5x75#

Finisher:
5 rounds
15 HPS 55#
15 Ring Dips
TIME:32:51

Did this rx, which kind of changes it from being a metcon since those damn ring dips take so long to do. Didn't help that I smacked myself in the nose on the 3rd round of HPS and got a bloody nose, which I had to spend a few minutes on till it stopped bleeding. Lets just say I won't make that mistake ever again!

Afternoon:
3 rounds
25 GHD
50 DU
25 Wall Balls 14#
500 m row
TIME: 30:44

Moved pretty slow thru this one, especially on the DU, shocking, i know....

Cardio Blast with Ty:
5 rounds
1000m row
1 mile run
TIME: 1:13:45

Holy cardio hell, yes... that does say one hour and thirteen minutes. We were going to go running and Ty suggested this. Sounded like a great idea till we finished the first round in 14 minutes and we realized we were in for a long haul. Glad I did it considering how much I hate rowing... definitely good for me to do. I am exhausted now. I applaud you Ty if you make it to master's class tonight...

7/27

Caught a workout with Lavinia since she was the only person to show up at 1...

warmup..
dislocates

100 OHS @65# for time (tabata style...or at least for the first 8 intervals, got a little screwy after that)
TIME: 7:11

Strength:
Bench Press
4x5 @85#
1x5 @90#

Finisher:
"The Volkswagon"
21-15-9
Bench Press 75#
Pull ups
TIME: 7:23

then 3.2 mile run (holy shit did I have the WORST shin splints from those OHS during the run)

Decided to try and do 100 OHS using the tabata interval, figuring it would limit my rest time. Lavinia was game so we gave it a whirl. Worked fairly well for a while and then we got off. Still it definitely helped keep me pushing. Probably should have gone heavier on the finisher since I finished so quickly...
