This WOD is a real challenge. No one used the Rx’d weight.

Determining what weight to use was a problem for me this morning. Although I can deadlift really heavy I had to make sure that I could clean and get the same weight overhead since I had to use the same bar for the entire WOD. Last time I started out at 115 and dropped to 65.

The pain level was really high this morning and my preference would have been to simply walk out the door and forget the entire thing. I kind of got forced into 75lbs because I did not move quick enough to grab two of the 10lb bumpers. I had to go with 15 lb bumpers giving me a total of 75lbs. I still have enough manly pride left that I have to go at least as much as the girls. Because of that going with just the 45lb bar was not a possibility.

My frustration level is really high because I remember that day last week when I felt so good, like I could do anything. Today I am back to struggling with very simple movements.

Chris asked me what program I was using for the special effect on the pictures I have posted recently. The name of the program is Paint.NET and it is a free download for Windows users.

Eating—Even with best of intentions this continues to be a challenge. I think that I comfort myself for the pain I am in with food which probably contributes to the pain I am in that makes me eat more. Do you see a circle here?

What hurts today—Not a good day. The heel pain is back full force and my right hip is screwed along with my back in general. Very frustrating. I hate walking around like a little old man.

When I watch this my back does not hurt…..at least while I am laughing. His groans sound a lot like mine.

  2. [...] Checked my weight this morning after fighting off Eric and Brian as they attempted to sabotage my efforts. Came in with 203.6. This was good because I have been sticking at the 203 for a couple of weeks. One of these days it will drop a couple of pounds and I can get to 199 and this this thing over with. ONE YEAR AGO [...]
