Lisa swings the pood!
Ok I forgot to post yesterday. Here's what I did:
3 rounds
15-12-9
push ups, dips, 115 lb push press
I put my feet on a box to help out with the dips. After maxing out on the press the day before this one was pretty rough.
Today's:
Taught Lisa how to snatch a kb. We both did the following:
5 rounds:
10 each of: snatch (5l/5r), swings, squats (with kb), push ups
We didn't time it. It was good. Went for a walk afterwards.

Crossfit Total
Squat: 265
Press: 175
Deadlift: 305
Total: 745
The Press was a true max. That was hard. The squat and deadlift I could do more. I think I could do about 30 lbs more on the squat, but the most I've ever done was 275 so I figured this was a good starting point. I only have 10 lbs more of weight to add to the bar and I'm positive I could deadlift 315. I guess I should get some more weight.

Overhead Squat (88lbs)

Michael
3 rounds:
Run 800 meters
50 back extensions
50 situps
Took me 30:17, I think. I was at like 26 minutes or something after the last run. When I stopped the stopwatch it said "0:17." I'm assuming that for whatever reason it just went back to zero when it go to a half hour.
I think the lap around the block is a little more than 400 meters, but eh as long as it's consistent next time I try this one.
I did good mornings with the bar instead of back extensions. Felt it more in my butt than in my lower back. I didn't really care for this workout in general.
Oh yeah, one last thing. Fuck I'm fat.

I finally timed myself. I did it in 8:27.
The last 9 pullups were slow negatives. I couldn't do them anymore. I did the thrusters in my kitchen.

fatass
Did the infamous "Fran" today. 21-15-9 of thrusters and pull ups. Used 65 lbs because my knees were still pretty sore from vball yesterday. Could have used the regular 95 I think, but better safe than sorry.
Took me 12:00. I fucking suck balls at pull ups. It was really pathetic. I guess I'll start knocking a few of them out more often.
I've only timed myself three times doing this workout, the first two times I did it with 95 lbs. Today's effort was the slowest (just under 9 mins is my fastest, IIRC).
Pa-freaking-thetic.

Row 2K
I did a substitute of SDLHP with a 40lb kb. I don't have a rower yet. However, my friend is getting one from his mother's house this weekend.
It was 200 reps. It took me like 10 minutes. Very tiring.

Push Pats
3-3-3-3-3, used 135, 145, 145, 135, 135
My wrists were the limiting factor and the reason for dropping back down. I guess they'll get stronger as time goes by.

back in washington
So the crossfit WOD was Row 2k. I have no rower, the official sub is 1 SDHP (45 lbs) for every 10m of rowing. I used the 40 lb kettlebell instead because it's just easier. I also only did 150 reps. It wasn't quite the 2000m of rowing or 200 reps of SDHP or even the correct weight, but whatever. It was tiring.

400 meter run (I estimated this..........I am fairly certain that I ran more)

here we go again
3 rounds of:
400 meter run
50 squats
Ok so it wasn't really 400 meters. I ran down to the end of my parents' street and back. It wasn't quite long enough, but it's downhill on the way there and, you guessed it, uphill on the way back. I cut a round off the normal workout for this one. My knee still hurts.
This would be another good one to use to measure progress. I'll go to a real track and time myself before too long.
