Hello there people!
How have you all been? I have been busy ( of course), lol. Work has been super busy, kids finished up school and all the jazz that goes along with it.
All that being said, I have continued with my workouts. I have said before , how this year, I really have been unhappy with myself over how I have done. I haven’t been eating right, I wasn’t getting to class as much. I am happy to report I am back on track. THIS IS WHAT I NEED. BADLY. I have increased my classes to get myself in the right routine. So far, so good!
Even though I have was not getting to class as much as I wanted, I still gave it my all when I was there. I had some PR’s in June too!
So, lets start fresh with this week. Here’s how I have done so far:
Monday
Back Squat Strength Practice
5×3, 105 lbs, 125 lbs, 125 lbs, 135 lbs, 145 lbs!!! ——> That’s a PR Baby!!!
Then the work out was a 12 Min Amrap
6 Push Press – 65 lbs
12 OH Plate lunges 15 lbs – this was supposed to be with the bar, but there was no way I could do it, so first I started with 25 lbs plate, that was a joke. So, my coach gave me the 15 lbs plate instead. What a difference that made. I got through 5 rounds plus 10 reps into the 6th. I was really psyched about the Back Squat PR. So proud of myself!
Today
Today was my first venture into the 5 am class. The amount of strength in that class is pretty amazing. Inspiring to watch everyone. I really struggled with the workout today and I told myself if I get through 1 round, I would be happy with that. So , here goes:
800 m run – last one of course. But I finished the run. Took me a long time though.
25 Burpees – the devil. Serious. Devil burpees. I hate them so much. They slow me down cause I can’t freakin do them great. Took for-fucking-ever to get them done.
25 Power Cleans – 85 lbs. i was doing 65 lbs, but Holly said to go to the 25 lbs. Glad I did – another PR!
25 Pull Ups – double green band , still 😦 but I got them done too
I only got 10 burpees into the next round, it was supposed to repeat the 25’s, then another 800 m run. Some folks finished it. I was happy just to be working out.
Some day , I will finish all the WOD’s, lol!
You know, this blog is really the best motivation I could have. Reading back some of these entries. Man, I have come a long way. And there is so much farther to go!
Its getting fun folks!
Less Thighs More Thunder 
Awesome. At times we fall off the track, but we always get back on 🙂
Thank you! I can really say for the first time, that I am getting back on track instead of letting me get myself down like the old me used to. 🙂
Congratulations! I hit just hit a PR and I’ve been smiling all day. It’s wonderful, yes? Cheers!
Congrats on your PR ! It’s such a great feeling when we hit those goals !
