CROSSFIT
2015 PRs:
one rep Deadlift: 225 lbs.
Snatch: 100 lbs.
Clean and squat: 135 lbs.
Back Squat: 125 lbs
overhead squat: 115 lbs 8/12/15
Strict press: 100 lbs 5/28/15
Push press: 110 lbs. 5/28/15
Jerk press: 125 lbs. 5/28/15
10k run (Bayshore): 49:56 5/23/15
Front squat reps: 40 x 125lbs :) sore! 8/10/15
Front squat 1 rep: 165lbs. 9/3/15
9/3/15: Mike coached me to keep the bar HIGHER on my front bar squat, really let fingers fall in and keep bar above the shoulder... much easier to keep the bar from falling forward/down. Also while doing high pull cleans, the video showed that I was bending my elbows BEFORE my hips were fully extended, therefore missing efficiency and power. Also I need to tuck elbows in and rest bar on top of shoulders.
8/3/15 NAILED a kettbell swing and wall ball workout--- SUCKED at a pull-up, squat/thruster workout. I love crossfit! Reminder to load legs rather than back while deadlifting. Also reminder to train stabilizing hip muscles to help with knee issues (per awesome physical therapist Rob Slate).
Thur 5/28/15 20 minutes to work towards Max rep in presses. I ran out of time... maybe could have had more weight on a jerk press. Good advice from Mike-- wait at least a minute before attempting max rep.
12 minute AMRAP of 25 wall balls, 15 box jumps, and 100 meter run. Did 4 rounds and 10 wall ball reps. Legs are getting stronger, wall balls feel easier than a few months ago.
Monday 5/11/15
Back squat prep... then did Cindy-Ralph-Cindy... for a total of 100 push ups (second 50 modified), 150 squats, and 50 pull ups (modified) and 75 55lb snatches. Jason (last name?) and I were the last to finish (there was a shorter workout option), which was fun to end with someone and have direct snergy/support. :) Felt great :)
Friday 5/8/15
Realizing that I need to work on form before I get too excited about adding weight. I'm leaning to the right when I squat with weight...hmmm.
Wed. 5/6/15
Was able to attend at 8:30 due to extra morning planning time at Pathfinder. Snatched at 95lbs. don't remember the workout...? Except that my abs were sore for 4 days doing ab drills :)
Mon. 5/4/15
Had a full week off due to busy teaching/tutoring schedule (and a 3 day juice cleanse). Also had ralphing on left glute and left quad, left bruising! Raced MSB Saturday. Felt crappy to start, wanted to sleep, almost quit after the warm up. Did modified ring dips (getting closer!), 28kg bells farmer walk, and worked up to 135 lb clean and squat (20 minutes on our own, doing different variations of the clean). Felt strong...
Mon. 4/27/15
Felt good on sumo deadlifts-- needed a wider grip on hands and to think about pulling bar in towards chin and hips, and keeping butt DOWN. 5 reps of 5 at 195lbs.
Awesome workout and heavy! :) It's been awhile since doing wallballs, and I can feel that my squat is much stronger. Needed to dip more on the power clean, and get butt down to start. Starting a 3 day juice cleanse on Tuesday. No more CF workouts this week until after MSB race on Sat.
Fri. 4/24/15
100 PR snatch :)
work on hand stand push-ups! Getting better...
Sat. 4/25/15
Linda: 10! One of my hardest workouts yet, went heavy...
Deadlift was supposed to be 1.5 body weight, I did 175lbs
Benchpress was supposed to be body weight, I did 95lbs
Clean and squat was supposed to be .75 body weight, I did 105lbs. Took me just over 30 minutes. Happy with the challenge. Definitely needed to synergy in the room. :)
Mon. 4/20/15
Felt good on deadlifts-- remember to bring knees out and press on outside of foot, get butt down to pull weight up. Started at 185, worked up to 225. Total of 10 reps, but only two reps at 225 lbs.
Workout was 1/2 of Cindy-- feel like I need to work on push ups and pull ups.... legs are feeling stronger but not arms...
Working on pistol squat... lunge with knee down and lift back foot up (same foot that has the knee planted on the floor, then come up to stand... AWESOME transition to work on the balance/strength needed to do pistols).
one rep Deadlift: 225 lbs.
Snatch: 100 lbs.

"Even Steven" and Crazy 8's cycling
Use deck of cards, 2-7, and 8s, all four suits :)
Do one suit at a time, 3 cards drawn randomly from the deck by 3 different people. Each card last 2-4 minutes, so it will be a 12 minute set. :) 2 minutes rest between each set. :) 14 minutes x 4... 56 minute class
5 minute warm up
CARD #
2 = 2 sprints (40 seconds each, rest 1 min 20 sec)
3 = triple hill (30 seconds each)
4= even Stevens (pick a cadence and stay on it for two minutes-- increasing resistance)
5= intervals (5 seconds at 10/10, 50 second rest in between )
6= 6 increases up a hill (start at level 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9)
7= 7 ladder steps: down for 10, up for 10, down for 20, up for 20... 30, 40, 50,
8= *start at 2 minutes, every time the card #8 is drawn, length of interval by 1 minute! 8/10 effort (think climbing the Rockies!)
5 minute cool down
5 minute stretch
