Miscellaneous
So... I talked a neighbor (Wayne) into joining me tonight since he'd been talking about getting back into the exercise swing of things. He did pretty good. Check him out rowing! Missed him in the burpees video. I'll catch him next time! He survived day 1 & I think is contemplating returning for more fun tomorrow!

The box is looking at placing a group order for Innov8 shoes. The more that order, the bigger the discount will be! If you want some, let myself or coaches at the box know pronto!

Also, there's gonna be a Crossfit Campout April 30th at Cleburne State Park. Check the details at the box!

Post WOD time

Result
23:58 RX pullups, caterpillar pushups (w/ plank out at top), and RX squats

I actually really liked this WOD. I think I prefer ones like this when I can kind pace myself and go. The pushups were the killer though -- felt it more in my shoulder doing those than doing the pullups, but that could've just been because the pullups were only 5 at a time, versus the 10x pushups. 

My apologies for the side-ways videos. I'll have to learn my papparazzo a lesson or two on the way of the cheap video cam....

pullups, pushups

squats -- and rockin' the lack of pigmentation!

ugh to the PCs

caterpillar by the end...

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!

Dreaded medball cleans

WOD
"Fran"
21-15-9
Thrusters (95/65)
Pullups

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.
