WOD January 2, 2015

Strength:

– 10 Minutes To Find 3RM Thruster

My workout:
I paired up with this tiny but superstrong girl from Switzerland who dropped in on her holiday. She was amazing!! Pushed me to go heavier as well. I ended up doing 3 reps at 100 lbs (45.4kg).

WOD:

15 – 12 – 9 reps of:

– Front Squats #135/95

– Handstand Push Ups

Rest 2 Mins:

– 3 x Max Hold Plank (Rest 30 seconds between sets)

My workout:
Finally back in the box after a full week of nothing. It felt really good. Even though the WOD was tough I finally felt super energized again after the workout, instead of feeling destroyed as I have felt mostly last month. That didn’t mean it wasn’t hard though. I used the Rx weight of 95 lbs, which is really heavy for my front squat. I realized just before we started that I should either take weight off or scale the reps. I didn’t have time to take weight off though so I decided to scale the reps to 9-6-3. Which was perfect. Both for the squats and for the handstand push ups as well. I did them strict with 1 plate under 1 abmat. I struggled on the very last one.. and ended with 6 minutes 45 seconds.

For the max plank holds I did:

1 min – 30 sec – 30 sec – 20 sec – 30 sec

Earlier on the day I walked 5km along the beach with Murphy.

WOD August 25, 2014

I started so good last week with working out Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, but that’s kind of where it stopped. I still haven’t picked up on the Wendler routine yet either. Lets say I’ve had a bit of a summer break. But determined to train hard again from now on!!

Yesterday I did the WOD.

Strength

Back Squat 5 x 7

EMOM 10 Mins “Pull/Push”

– 5 Pull Ups

– 10 Push Ups

My workout
Back squat: 7 x 75 lbs, 7 x 95 lbs, 7 x 105 lbs, 7 x 115 lbs, 7 x 120 lbs. I did the pull ups kipping, without band and the push ups hand release.

WOD

3 Rounds For Time:

– 10 Deadlifts

– 10 Weighted Lunges

– 1 Hill Sprint

My workout
I did the deadlifts with 105 lbs and the lunges with a 25 lbs dumbbell. My time was 17 m 47. Horrible!!!

I didn’t do much over the weekend as I was mostly hiding from the sun. I went out with the kayak on Saturday, but the sea was a bit “wild” with waves coming from all sides lol. I got a bit nervous for some reason so went back very quickly.

On Sunday I went for a walk. I love the nature here… The sea in front, but when feel for a change I can just walk up and enjoy the Spanish “campo”.
