Running a little down on sleep since the midnight release of Battlefield 3.... But decided I needed to go to the gym and stop being such a puss bag.

WOD: “Bradshaw”

10 rounds for time

3 Handstand push-ups
6 Deadlifts (225/155lbs)
12 Pull-ups
24 Double unders

16:54 rxd

Took my time on most everything till the last round... Crazy amount of people in class tonight... 28?! nuts!

Also ripped, bad... nothing like 220 pull-ups in 2 days...  Hopefully it doesn't affect my sniping in battlefield :) 

Annnnnd he's back!

Well... after a full week of drinking and eating like complete and utter shit... i have returned from the land of the elderly.

Long story short: It rained, it was a lot of work, food/drinks were good, hotel was nice.

Got home friday night... and of course... party on Sat.... Happy bday Serge!

Sunday was Barbells for Boobs down at CFCM.... in costume.
Sporting the cowgirl outfit scored me a PR of grace 1:59.

Today was my first day back to the gym... woo!

Because both my ankles are still screwed I did:
5 rounds of:
10 G2 Shoulder with the 115# stone
15 plate pushups
20 pullups.

12:15 ; felt pretty good, pull-ups were def my slowest... need to learn how to control the butter as I get more fatigued....

Now... off to a midnight release of Battlefield 3 and pulling an all-nighter playing video games!
Who says you need to grow up???

resssst day, well kinda.

Protein shake for breakfast this AM.... Damn you SFH protein, you taste like DRAIN-O.

Tonight was a rest night, but I decided to come in and work on some goats.
Took my time and worked up to a heavy 1RM squat clean thruster, got 215. failed at 225.

Then played around with free standing HSPUs... tonight I couldnt even get 2 in a row... so much for PRing that!

And then I tried some max distance hand stand walks... PR @47' !

now, if I could get this friggen iPhone iOS5 Update to work... id sleep well..

Heavy ass helen.

SFH Protein shake this AM... all I can say is, I really wish I didn't go vanilla, gross.

No morning WOD... all in the PM.

Walked in thinking I was just going to do bulgarian... but of course, that didn't work..

Heavy ass helen:
3 rounds of:
400m run
21 KB Swings (bell over handle) 70#
12 Chest-2-Bar pullups

10:33.  Really thought I had a chance of catching Bri when I saw him put the KB down... then I realized my C2B's are god awful.

Post WOD Bulgarian day 4:
worked to OHS 1x160#  / 2x2@145#
Full Clean/Jerk: 1x195 / 2x2 @ 165#
Front Squat: 1x225 / 1x2 @ 210#

Post WOD shake / steak tips + corn/cauliflower  for dinner.
Now maggie is heating up apple crisp.... bad things are about to happen.

Paintball = Fun

Once again, no breakfast. ...

Today is the first rest day of the bulgarian program, so met con it was.

Had a really fun one with Brian:
3 rounds for time of:
20 Pullups
30 Pushups (Competition Standard)
20 Ground-2-Shoulder large atlas stone (115#?)
500m Row.  
Time: 19:10

Fun WOD for sure. Haven't done pull-ups in a little while... but something clicked with my butters. my 1st and 2nd set were unbroken, and quite fast. The atlas stones felt great. Missing some skin on my forearms, but what a killer movement.

Then onto paintball with some friends. Nothing beats shooting people :)

Light Weight buddy!

Eh... felt like crap this morning but showed up anyway...

Worked to max OHS. Worked to 195# but failed 3x... Really close to getting this.  Did get 185.

Worked to max full clean/jerk PR @235#. Obviously what sucks the most for me is the squat clean.

Worked to max Front Squat... smoked, made it to 230#.

then front squat 3x2@ 210#

Went to the Beast of the East with Brian. Got to see some monsters work out, looked like a lot of fun to be out there.

On the way home from BotE...  we got double downs... yeah... KFC... yah..

Once again didn't each breakfast... after the gym I ate like crap and had 6 beers over the course of the evening. Blah.

CT Scan this morning... yay magnets.

No breakfast....
