Hit the class workout this morning... still a bit sore from Saturday, but overall I felt good once I was warmed up and moving. 

A.

15 Minutes to build to a heavy: 

1 Snatch Push-Press + 1 Overhead Squat 

-Did a pyramid rep scheme here given I didn't want to go to a true heavy/1 RM ... this was mostly an exercise in mobility... tough on my lats/shoulders/upper body to overhead squat with confidence given I took a few years off from this movement.... anyway, reps went:

12/25/22

 Complete Rest 

12/24/22

This was a super solid workout... I was actually a bit nervous about getting this in... tons of reps and some tougher movements that I don't train often (back rack lunges and legless RC) ... but everything went fairly smoothly.  I started the last round at 36 minutes and then finish right about 45 minutes, but didn't get the exact time ... most movements unbroken except the SHSPU and thrusters... but everything was done at a fairly consistent pace. Really good crossfit and exceptionally challenging... picking up the bar for the thrusters was a huge mental battle and was way outside my comfort zone. Great day in the gym and very enjoyable.

Like this: 1 Rope Climb, then 2 Squat Cleans, 1 Rope Climb, then 3 Muscle Ups, 2 Squat Cleans, 1 Rope Climb, then 4-3-2-1, etc. – all the way to 12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1.

Unbroken pull-ups and fairly consistent squats ... push-ups went unbroken for a few rounds and then lots of 5/5 and 5/3/2 ... really fun time in the gym and happy to have no shoulder pain with this volume of push-ups. I'm not sure this is a PR as I don't remember my exact Cindy with a vest time ... done this a lot with 'Murph', but I don't think I've ever done just Cindy with a vest. Fun training.

I didn't have any symptoms today other than a some slight congestion/runny nose. Hit the class workout at the gym and it kicked my ass... I felt very out of shape compared to where I was a few short weeks ago.

12/05 & 06/22

 Complete Rest ... got in some static stretching/mobility/stability movements each day. 

12/04/22

Today was overall a solid session... I had to modify things quite a bit given how sore my hip flexors/abs are ... got in what I could and got a solid pump/sweat from this session. Last workout before the taper for my CFT on Wednesday. 

A.
Every :30 for 5 Minutes:

10 Air Squats 

-Complete ... nice warm-up 

B.
Deadlift

Build to a heavy set of 5 for the day, RPE 8-9 

-Warm up and then sets of 5 went: 405#, 425#, 440#, 450# ... felt strong on all these, definitely more there, but got in quality reps. 

C.
3 Rounds
10 Rack-Chins 
15 Double DB Skull Crushers (2x25# DB)
15 Standing Barbell Curl (45#) 
-Rest 1-2 min b/t round-

-Complete ... very nice pump. 

D.

3 sets: 

4 Rounds
800m BikeErg at RPE7,
45sec Ski at RPE3,
-no rest b/t rounds- 

-Rest 4min b/t sets-

-Complete ... didn't time the sets, just the rest interval, this was nice cardio and not too taxing.

Hit the class workout today... it was a really tough one for me. 

A.

For time, with a partner, 1 partner working at a time:

50-40-30-20-10

Cal Row

Strict HSPU

Bench Press (135/95#)

-32:30 ... this was WAY harder than I thought it would be ... aggravated my shoulder a bit, but mostly close grip benched to reduce the pain ... overall still a really solid workout. Tried to keep a 1:1 on most of the reps, but some of the time we deviated from that. Really tough shoulder/tricep workout. 

12/02/22

Did the class workout this morning... it was WAY harder than I realized it would be... tough gymnastics conditioning. This was a humbling experience and a solid way to start the day. 

A.
2 Sets:
50 GHD Sit-ups
50 T2B
Rest 5 mins

-5:57 

-6:48 ... this was WAY harder than I thought it would be ... had to do singles towards the end of both sets of TTB... which was very surprising. This was probably one of the toughest core workout I've ever done... aerobically I felt fine, but it just rocked my core with no where to break/rest. Good training. 

B.

3 Sets of:

Sled Push with 2x45# plate x 50' 

Bulgarian Split Squats x 10 reps/leg (unweighted) 

Rest as needed

-Complete ... didn't push the loading here at all ... just moved through this and recovered from part A.

C.

10 Minutes lower body stretching

-Complete
