CrossFit at 6AM.

I am such a creature of habit that I missed getting a picture of the whiteboard because I got side tracked on the final weigh in and body shot pictures. This means I will need to go on memory which is always an interesting variation on normal life.

After I finished the blog for the day Brian helped me out with a picture of the whiteboard for today. Thanks Brian!

Whiteboard for 3-29-2010

Prior to class Dave R and I worked on some shoulder press warm up and Will worked with me on getting up on the rings. Will seems to think that someday I will overcome the power of gravity and levitate myself up into a full muscle up. I guess if he believes that I might as well believe it as well.

Got 125 for the shoulder press this morning. Had to really fight for that. With a shoulder press you cannot use your legs to get the weight up, all the power must come from your shoulders. Back in February we did 5X5X5X5X5 shoulder press and I got 125. I should have been able to go heavier that 125 this morning but it was just not happening.

We had a 10 minute AMRAP that sucked.
20 Air Squats
10 Knee to Elbows
5 Hand Stand Push Ups or 7 using the tire or box

I got 5 rounds in but it was really tough.

Lot of pain this morning. Saturday was really tough with the AMRAP I did plus the regular WOD and then I was back at Self Defense Class yesterday afternoon. I worked hard on the sticks and did a lot of footwork. That always messes up my ankles and heels for the next day.

Today was the final weigh in for our 90 day tracking period. I came in at 238. So the official loss is 18 pounds. Brian checked body fat and I went from 22.3% to 17.9%.

Only 13 more pounds to get to my 225 goal but it seems like a long way away.

Eating—Trying to stay on track and just keep going toward the 225 goal.

What hurts today—Bad night sleeping. Lot of discomfort in shoulders and upper body.

One Year Ago—My weigh in one year ago was 251.1 so at least I am better of than I was then.
