081006 "Barbara"

Holy crap... "Barbara" was the most viscious WOD to date.

5 Rounds: Rest for 3 minutes in between rounds
20 Pull ups
30 Push ups
40 Sit ups
50 Squats
38:?? was my over all time. My last round was erased on the marker board, so it was ball park 30 mins. That work out was absolutely brutal. It felt great to finish, then watch all the other classes do it.

I've lost 16 pounds since starting crossfit, and that's not including the muscle I've gained. I see more definition all over, it's great. I feel healthier than I have in a long time.

Fight Gone Bad/081001/081002

Fight gone bad was pretty aweomse. I did 216 total reps. I did 261 last time, but I didn't RX. SDHP is what held me back. My back had a crazy pain in it, and I only got about 5 reps per SDHP. I think I could easily have matched my 261 if I hadn't had that pain.

081001- For time:
400m Run
50 Walking lunges
400mRun
50 Squats
400m Run
50 Box jump
15:33
This workout was brutal. My running always slows me down. That'll fade as I get into better shape.

081002- "Jeremy"
Three rounds 21-15- and 9 reps, for time of:
95 pound Overhead squats & Burpees

21-15-9. I was all over the place today. Changed weight, then changed exercises all together.
Started off with 95lbs, then moved to 85, then 65lbs, all within the first 21 reps. Switched to 135lb front squat during the 15 & 9 because I felt a pinch in my left palm.
20:33.. I think. Lots of room for improvement
