Repeat WOD SSST

I tried the SSST again today. I forgot the official rules of the test...I did set it down a few times and my finishing position could have been more overhead. The kettlebell always moved around away from the swing position and to the supported position on the back of the wrist but didn't stay there for very long at all.

I don't understand how people can get 300 with a 32kg bell! My 16kg was light, so it allowed me to get a bit sloppy with the movement. I am ready for a 32kg snatch test.

4/21/10 253 Reps
3/16/10 179 Reps

Work.

Yesterday I put my training into action. I worked for my building owner pulling up 3000 square feet of glued carpet. It was quite the workload. I am all about getting it done. I worked hard and fast. Pulled all that carpet in an hour. It felt like tire drags to me!

Today I ran 2 miles in 7:14. I surprised myself. Running makes me just want to sleep!

I plan to pick up some heavy stuff today.

135# Shoulder Press 3-3-3-3-3-3-3

I am going to do my mobility/flexibility warm-up Monday-Saturday and do whatever movements work requires such as running, leading stretches, demonstrating etc.

Currently the heaviest I have been in my life tipping the scale at 156# (clothed).

Thursday, April 8, 2010

Soar as hell from Tuesday! I took Wednesday off. Thursday consisted of a some deadlifts throughout the day...no formal workout. 95# to 235#.

I lead about 40 minutes of PT.

I plan to pick up some heavy stuff today. I like that feeling. My drive to do conditioning is minimal.

This blows my mind!

Five rounds for time of:
155 pound Deadlift, 12 reps
