Today's the first day of workout/nutrition posting online for me.  Here goes:

Workout:
3 attempts at a 1RM snatch
3 attempts at a 1RM clean and jerk

I opted to just get some practice with these lifts instead of go for the max's as technique is just not where it should be.  In my mind, I feel as though forcing a lift while not knowing how to do it properly is just not the smartest thing to do! 

400 meter run
9 muscle ups
18 DB push press 50#
400 meter run
7 muscle ups
15 push press
400 meter run
5 muscle ups
12 push press

this one started off well, but went down hill pretty quickly with the muscles ups.  I finished at 13:00 on the button and that was all muscles ups.  The run was pretty solid and all push presses were unbroken.  Muscles went: 3, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 for round one; 3, 1, 1, 1 for round two; and, 2, 1, 1, 1 for round three.

My body felt really good today, but my mind wasn't there at all.  That ended up hurting me in the end.  The positive takeaways for the day were: i got a message from a great dude who Lindsey found for me and I will be getting work done on a regular basis from now in (it is really time I take my recovery as seriously as my actual training!).  I am also getting on the fat loss kick tomorrow.  I have put on a ton of weight with my training program as of late, and fueking for it (and being a little lazy), and it is time in the season to begin cutting the weight down.  I am VERY excited to see and feel the changes of being back at my comfortable weight of around 205# (I am guessing I am a little over 220# as I write this post).  I'll go into details of what I'm doing tomorrow.  Until then, Happy New Year everyone!

Never Stop, GET FIT.

2b) 220# all of them (felt very good)

warmed up to this and the final two rounds were super easy and super fast
2b) same weight as above. was actually suprised at how good and strong these good mornings felt for 8 reps.

Did the walks. Got only 60 meters in the 20 minutes. Nervous system began failing me at the end and getting inverted was doing some crazy things to my mind. Found that the parking garage at my apartment is perfect for this. May head down there a few mornings a week for more work and some sprint work! Suck at gymnastics!

Had an awesome time doing this workout with other people! And, I was suprised that I actually survived it seeing my health level coming into it! Just goes to show you how awesome and helpful it is to workout with others around.

Double unders were way messier than normal, but row felt pretty good (should have pushed harder on this one). C+J went up super easy once I got it (thinks for the pointers Rudy! Again, actually having a coach around really does help), still under a PR for me. The burpees…ugh, my lack of food caught up to me real fast on this one. Felt like stopping after 25. Squats felt strong, just had no juice left. Pull ups were good, just forgpt I had another round as I put my shoes on for the run! Sprinted over and was able to bang out 4 in the remanding seconds. Last wod…yeah, push presses were unbroken but that run/shuffle was just wonderful!

Looking forward to next one!
