AMRAP

As many rounds as possible in 10 minutes:

2 MuscleUps
4 Deadlifts at bodyweight
6 Box Jumps 24 inch

12 rounds exactly. It was great fun to try. I had no problem with wind or muscularly the leg stuff. I kept a steady rythm through that. But my muscle ups left something to be desired. Still relatively happy.

Chipper for fun.

15 Cleans 60kg
30 Toes to bar
30 box jumps
10 Muscle Ups
30 Push Press 40kg
15 Burpees
15 Thrusters 40kg

Loads of fun doing it with my friend Nat. I just sort of maintained a steady pace through the workout. Worked out that by swinging during the toes to bar I actually wrecked my lat strength for the muscle ups. The exercises got easier as I went along, I don't think I warmed up entirely well but that's fine.

It's actually quite interesting how the small decisions I made on each different exercise to help me complete them actually affected everything else. It was good to trial and test out though.

No Title

Today went looking for something short and fast and it ended up taking way longer than I gave it credit for. It was definitely fun to do the workout though. Challenge I found was in my lower back as it struggled to cope with the strain.

4 Rounds
9 Cleans 60kg
9 Thrusters 40kg
500m Row

It was a heavy set to get through and I was still quite sore from yesterday. I enjoyed going hard though and I could feel the energy I had from eating properly again. Later on tonight I'm practicing muscle up transitions on Rings so it'll be a solid day of training once Ive finished.

How to make people hate you....

Eating before a workout was so foolish especially when it's pasta and sour cream. I think though that this one was just really difficult. All the boys seemed to struggle with this so much to get through it.

doesn't feel like it was worth it but thoroughly challenging.

Grace

I did Grace today, but slightly less than the prescribed weight.

30 Clean and Jerk at 60kg

6:00 flat.

For this workout it's not an impressive time, But to have gotten it down from 10 minutes or so I'm pretty happy with that. I found the difficulty not in my wind, I was barely gassed at all, but it was actually my shoulder strength that was failing me. So even though I've clearly gotten stronger I do still have some work to do to get this done and achieve what I want to achieve.

Looking forward to some more hard workouts.

Finally back into it.

I've done a couple of workouts this week but I'm finally back into it consistently and it may be a little too late with sectionals only 2 and a half weeks away. I'll be going a bit overboard with my workouts over the next 2 weeks so if you can try and keep up.
Today I kicked off with a BodyBalance class. It's supposed to be a mix of Tai Chi, Yoga and Pilates... It was a little unusual to say the least but I enjoyed it and it helped workout the kinks from the last couple days.
Later in the afternoon mucked around with a few exercise, no real intent, just playing so I don't count them.

Wednesday afternoon is boys afternoon at the beach and we had a couple of newcomers and unfortunately for them they came on a day where I wanted everyone to be flogged.

5 Burpees
10 KTE
15 Pushups
20 Squats
300m run down to the beach and back.

As many rounds as possible in 20 minutes.

I pulled off 7 with big dan close behind and the two new fellas not far off either so I've really got to drive myself. But it was great to have some fresh faces floating around the mix.

In terms of difficulty the workout was actually quite difficult but I had all the motivation in the world with the boys following me so closely. It challenged me to just keep pushing and I found that I did more than I think I could have on my own.
Having the boys there once a week is a great boost for my motivation in this because they drive me to be better. If only it was like that every day.
