My right hip flexor has been bothering me. It doesn't hurt, but feels over-used. We did some hamstring stretches tonight, and I also used the foam roller on it but it didn't feel like it was doing any good. I layed on the ball for a bit on a tender spot & that seemed to help a little, so maybe if I concentrate more using the ball there I'll see if I can garner any improvement. On another note, my shoulder has also been bothering me. It hurts more when my arms are spread apart. As long as I keep them closer together, it doesn't get tweaked.



Toes on box HSPUs

Toes thru rings -- kinda fun stuff!  Will.I.Am sharing the pain with me!

Post Bench 5Rm and Fran time

Result
Bench Press = 65#; wussed out cuz shoulder; noted the wider grip made the shoulder hurt more
Fran = 8:47 - 55#

Ok, that wod sucked! My previous fastest time was 6:30 at 55#, so this time was absolutely heart-breaking. There were quite a few times when I went down (too far) & then couldn't come back up with the weight. So I guess I snuck in there a little bit extra work. On a good note, though, no ripped hands from the pull ups. I think my hands are evolving....


1st round thrusters


pullups, sideways!!


Special thanks to Tyler -- my newest papparazzo.
