I do not appreciate the picture on this blog entry. Blunts? That’d be Paleo, right?

5 Rounds
5 MU (scaled to 2 each round)
10 OHS @ 115#
15 TTB
20 GHD
35:45

Fell apart round 3- could NOT get the second MU. Very frustrating! I finally got it (thanks Tery for the emblows cue), then went to the OHS and struggled having to break up the set. On TTB I think I came off the bar once in each of 2 rounds.

Thanks to Karen for the encouragement!

PM
Rowing intervals with the pyramid rest. I wanted to play around with stroke rate and form. splits in meters:
252, 245, 251, 245, 246, 244, 250, 249, 249, 245

Jerk work off the rack and blocks
166# PR’d by a pound
170# was there and felt good, but I missed it and second attempt was poor so I left it there.

Rudy, I tried lowering my elbows and I think it helped alot. I was getting the weight up more easily, and it relieved alot of discomfort in my shoulders.

Thanks Glenn for your help and for telling me to put that pound on!

5 rounds of 30 double unders, 30 situps, 30 air squats for time at the globo gym today. Approx 13 Min. Kept things pretty steady and also unbroken except for the first set of double unders. Should push for more speed on squats and situps to cut off a couple minutes. Followed by pushups, weighted rows, and abs.

are you all going to do the paleo blog again – or at least post the old link as reference?

Redid my Fran: either 3:15 or 3:19

Still not happy with Fran time, my grip strength just keeps failing in both the round of 15 pull ups and 9 pull ups.

Then 5 rds:

5 ring push up/ring row (to replace muscle ups)
10 Dumbell Hang Squat clean at 40#
10 Overhead squat at 115#
15 TTB
20 GHD sit ups

Took forever, not sure on time, but moved slowly throughout. Wasn’t really ready for this post Fran.

Started IF last night!

4 oz of turkey with handful of raw carrots at 6pm

Fasted from 630pm Saturday to 1pm Sunday

1pm – 6 oz plain grilled chicken breat, steamed broccolli and spinach with small amount of olive and garlic

The fast was pretty easy for day 1….I drank a ton of water all day.

Dinner will be either turkey or steak with carrots.

IF Rules!

Worked on power clean & jerks, did ~20 reps @ #175

Tried out the Ski Erg, 4 rounds: 250 ski / 0.25 mi Air Dyne

2 min AMRAP DUs: 200 on the dot. Strung 160 to start, then fell apart the second minute.
