Just me this morning at Crossfit at 6A. Brian coached and Jerry did the workout along with me.

Our warmup consisted of Kettlebell carries, swings, pushups and pullups.

For skill we worked on rower technique.

WOD:

    300 Meter Row
    5 Pushups
    5 Dips
    5 Weighted Setups
    5 Dead Lift (135lbs)

AMRAP in 20 minutes.

I got 6 rounds, Jerry got 7. I really thought Jerry was further ahead of me. For workouts like this I just keep going until the time is up and let the rounds fall where they may.

I love this picture that Brian took of me through the ring. Maybe one day I will actually be able to do a dip on the rings.

Here is Jerry doing the dips the right way

At Crossfit at 6AM. Andrew (this will be his last visit until around Easter. He is going back to his base), Matt, Ted, Dave, Eric, Kelly with Brian and Jerry coaching.

Feeling a little off this morning. Really sore even with the rest day on Sunday and my eating has really been off track. I know that is part of the issue.

We worked on Front Squats as our skill. This technique is causing some issues for me. Getting the correct squat position is not easy.

Our WOD looks bad on paper, and was just as bad in person.

    6 Front Squats(I used 95 lbs)
    50 Pullups (jumping)
    6 Front Squats
    50 Pushups
    6 Front Squats
    50 Setups
    6 Front Squats
    50 Air Squats
    6 Front Squats

This was brutal. I was really fading by the time I got to the Air Squats and last set of Front Squats. Ok, I will tell the truth, I was fading after the very first Front Squat of the workout.

Jerry worked with me several times on the Front Squats. It seemed that everytime I fixed one thing, something else was out of wack.

I was really a mess by the end of the final set of Front Squats. It was so bad that Brian made me do the last set over. Clearly something I need to work on. Good times.

People continue to make fun of my fivefingers. Jealousy can be such an ugly thing.

What is a baby boomer?
People born between (and including) 1946 and 1964. After American soldiers returned home from World War II in1946, the United States experienced an explosion of births (hence the name baby boom) that continued for the next 18 years, when the birth rate began to drop. In 1964, baby boomers represented 40% of the population, which means that more than one third of the population was under 19 years of age. In the 1990s, approximately 76 million people in the United States were born in the baby boom years, representing approximately 29% of the country's population. Since baby boomers make up such a sizable portion of the consuming public, their spending habits and lifestyles have a powerful influence on the economy.
