Tough

Bike ride today was actually tough. Got in some KBs before hand though. Some BUPs and snatches with the 24kg. Was actually dissapointed that the BUP was as easy as it was. My strength was/is there I just had to hone the movement and coordination for it.

Weekend and todays training

This weekend was awesome...visited my friend in Denton. I love hanging out with him, because we feed off each other and push each other hard. The man is a natural athlete with the mindset that he can do anything, so he does everything...very well. I wish I had pictures of the route and the dynos we did. But I walked out of the gym thinking I could do anything, and feeling invincible.

Todays workout was the maxercist. I lost track of reps but stayed with the 30 sec intervals as best I could. Got 6 sets of 5, then went downhill from there with sets of 2&3..somewhere between 40-50 reps total in 10 minutes. Tomorrow is climbing and a blasting of the lower body.

5 minutes

Thats how i motivated myself to do something today..."its only 5 minutes..."

5 sets of 5 L&R + 1 set of 3&3+1 set of 2&2 = 60 reps in 5:03. Not too bad but not good. Hopefully will hit near 100 by the time im outta here. Shouldnt be too hard.

Climbing was good -not hard nor easy.

OLAD

It worked great for me in the past so its going to do the same. Taking a semi-back off week as I dont deserve one as I have not been working hard. This time Im using a modified Pavel plan.

Today- 2x16kg LC C&J - 70 reps

Completed with 5 sets of 8 reps and 6 sets of 5 reps with one minute breaks in between. Pretty weak, but I am thinking One Arm LC C&J would be more beneficial as the entire set would be more beneficial to me.

Had an interesting discovery with my wrist today...Its related HEAVILY to how tight my shoulder is. Hmmm.....

4/9 & 4/10

4/9 - Rode for 40 minutes at the park. Did 3,2,2 pullups. Some pushups.



4/10 - No climbing. 10x3/3 snatches-60 total. 40 pushups. My shit is weak.

A good day

Today was good. Finished up Black Hawk Down, and am anxiously awaiting Northern Disclosure by Sfc. Nunn. Will be an awesome read.

Had a fun day of climbing as well, even though the wall got crowded and my brother and I decided to leave early.

The workout wasnt rigorously kept track of because I didnt feel like it. I was hurting, but because I didnt get my ass up this morning (stayed up late read BHD) I had to get in there and 'punch the clock.' It consisted of the formentioned combo and when I screwed it up cause of a mental lapse...I jogged! I threw some burpees in there as well. Best thing about it, the thing that really made this day great, is I continued until my goal time. I had told myself no less than 15 minutes. At 7 I was hurting, (especially my left forearm-my tendons felt like they were trying to pop out of my body) and at 13:30 I stopped the watch to quit, then thought of Rangers and D-boys raced into my head with the general thought of "Do they quit early?" And I started the watch again and did some more H2H, snatches, and running until I was well past 15mins. I didnt bother looking at the finish time to record it. It didnt matter to me. Tommorrow will be some kind of activity at a Park hopefully, and if I am feeling up to it, more H2H, maybe at a 'nice' pace. Over.

4/7

Feeling wierd today. My body was 9 kinds of messed up. Did 4,3,2,1 pullups and MP. Did a few sets of pushups that were pathetic. Tommorrow morning will be some kind of Martone inspired pain. Some TGUs + H2H drills and combos for a sick and twisted Program Minimum.

Might try somethings like Right hand -Snatch, Figure 8 (catching bell in R), catching with L on the drop into a Snatch to begin the other side. Do that for a 20 count or so then jog, at other end of field do some burpees. Should be brutal.
