Row 1k
20 Power Cleans @135lbs
Row 1k
20 Power Snatches
Row 1k
20 Thrusters
Row 1k


Warm-Up 4k

I was a little worried on how hard the snatches would be and they were not bad at all.


Approx 19 minutes

Saturday mornings have been weigh in day for Steve and me.   I am happy with the progress and feel pretty good. I'm always surprised when someone asks me my goal and whether its gaining weight or losing weight.   At 50 its about losing weight.
Now its a little creepy that my man Anthony was snapping photos but I guess this as close to feeling like a star I will ever have to deal with.   Nice to have Chris in the house with us today. 

Jerry

Hero WOD - "Jerry" For time:
Run 1 mile
Row 2K
Run 1 mile

This is always a fun workout and I was looking forward to doing it since I have been rowing better.  

Mile 1 - 7:30
Transition - 20 seconds
Row 2k - 7:47
Mile 2 - 8:05

Total time 23:42 

Didnt feel like that second run was that slow.  My big mistake was when I got off the rower I forgot to do the add on part of the run so even If I was ahead I couldnt just hang with Dennis and Dave when or if they caught me.  So I essentially ran a bit pace blind and blew it.  Both Dennis and Dave beat me on the run. 

EMOM Hell

16 EMOM
15- Box Jumps 24/20
10- Front Squats 155/105
45- Double Unders
10- Toes 2 Bar

Didnt look so bad on paper, but in reality it kicked my ass. No photos, no nothing, 

Partner Wod

Partner WOD but odd number of people and no one wanted to be my partner.   SAD FACE.   Not a problem I just started when the first partner combo restarted.   Runs felt good.  First one was the fastest but lost time coming in the door. Did a more measured run after that and tried to drive thru the movements.

Partner Workout
3 Rounds Each Alt.
400m Run
10-Burpees
10-C2Bs
15-KB Swings 70/53

Rowing Intervals

1K, rest 5min, x5

This went way better than expected! Was able to stay close to 2k pace. I'm sure we will have a 2k test during the No Bread challenge so I will get my chance to perform.

Nasty Girls

“Nasty Girls”
3 Rounds
50- Squats
7- Muscle Ups
10- Hang Cleans 135/95


10:41

I was very conservative in my approach to this wod.  Shockingly my muscle ups rocked.  Must be all of the pulling I have been doing on the rower.  They felt smooth and not super taxing.   Broke up the first 2 rounds 5-2, 4-3 and then did 7 straight.  That really surprised me.

Good work on the macros this week.  Weight continues to come off little by little.

Rowing at the YMCA

Rowing and Dumbell Work

Marathon Monday

Dennis and I took advantage of the Craic programming(Thanks Jarrod) to complete a Marathon Row.   We started with the 5:30am class and kept going thru the 6:30 and into Open Gym.  I finished at 9am sharp.  So assuming that we started after 5:30 the running clock was at worst less then 3:30.   If you add up the numbers it comes up with a 3:04!  Very happy with that effort.

The aftermath

Happy to be able to fit this one in before I had to head to the airport.

 A) “Jackie”
1000m-Row
50- Thrusters
30- Pullups

Kept it at a pace on the rower that wouldnt leave me completely spent.  The thrusters felt fine until I hit #40 and then my legs started to feel it.  Powered thru that and then banged out 30 pullups.  Definitely felt it as I got towards the end.

Was hoping for a faster time but can live with a 6:29!

BOXROX WOD to Increase Mental Toughness

Felt great in the first row and when I picked up the bar for the Thrusters it felt like it weighed 2x what was on it.  Same with the Farmers carry.  Went with 53lbers 2nd and 3rd round.  Still hard but more manageable.
