I was definitely overdue for a bad workout...so I got one today. Not sure what went wrong, but it may have had something to do with me waking up at 4:30am with the pup and never going back to sleep. Things were just off today and instead of reinforcing bad technique, I callled it a day.

Tomorrow I'll try again and then I'm off for a few day on a biz trip. Seems like forever since I've gone anywhere!

[L'ilJ]

Fast workout this morning since I'm headed out on a trip.

Warmup stuff

Front Squats - 2x45#, 2x65#, 2x85#, 1x110#, 1x120#, 1x130#, 1x140#, 2x1x145#, 1x150#

PPBH - 4x3x90#

High Step Ups - 3x8xBW+10#

Pull Thrus 3x10xnot sure what weight

Stretching

Yeah, workout in pounds since I buzzed over to the commercial gym close to my house. I am definitely spoiled by the good equipment I usually get to use. The regular gym stuff is just crap. But hey...it worked!

No training until Thursday.

Yo, do any of you do crossfit or what?

There is a crossfit gym a couple of miles from my house that incorporates Olympic lifting and I’m thinking of giving it a try. Kinda looks like fun. I’m new to this crossfit thing, but I believe it has been around for awhile. I’m wondering if this style of training assists one in getting stronger? I do like that one evolution called Fran where they do squat thrusts with cheating pull ups for time. I watched in on ‘youtube’ and I thought the one broad was doing it with 135 lbs. on account of the size of the plates. I go into my gym and do the evolution with 135 successfully but it took me over 7 minutes with that weight. I came to find out that chicks do it with 65 lbs. and guys do it with 95. Haha, good stuff!!!

[dillytl]

Awwwwwwwwwwww....cute pup!!!!

Oh....and HAI!

[L'ilJ]

C&J - 2x2x20kg, 2x25kg, 1x30kg, 5x1x35kg, 1x40kg, 1x42.5kg, 1x45kg, 1x47.5kg, 1x50kg, 1x52.5kg, 1x45kg, 1x35kg, 3xbar
