Diane... Of a sort...

“Diane”
21-15-9:
Deadlifts (225/155)
HSPU

I did only 185# as I am still nursing the calf injury.  Also I was only able to do the first half (larger half) of each set as a HSPU, the rest were done as an elevated push-up...

Still took forever.  Spieler I am not.

Thursday AMRAP 15

15 min AMRAP of...

4 pistols (I used a bench at the bottom but free hands)
4 pull-ups
4 Hand stand push-ups (I got into the handstand, held, then dropped to a push-up)

Rounds: 9

It was a lot slower then others, but that was becuase I was having issues with HSPU, as always.  Also, I didn't use a bar or band to help counter balance the pistols which made them harder and slower.

Pulled Calf

So Tuesday's Filthy Fifty pulled the calf pretty bad.  Didn't do any work outs on Wed/Thur.

Friday was pure upper body...
30 sec pull-ups
60 Rest
5 rounds
72 pull-ups total
4 min Rest
5 rounds of
8 HSPU (subbed 95# strict press because of the shock on calf getting down)
12 dips
16 hand release push-ups
Rest 2 minutes
Time: 20ish...  ugly, ugly, ugly

Saturday...
Warm-up on the rower, real slow
Then death by sit-ups.
3 sit-ups every minute on the minute adding 3 more for each minute.
Finished 10 full rounds + 24 more.
That is 189 sit-ups
Then did 3 - 30 sec planks.

Ugly MetCon Monday

5 round of.
10 Pull-ups (fine)
10 95# Hanging Squat Clean (Broken into sets)
10 Hand Stand Push-ups (1st round as HSPU, rest as negatives with reset
after each one)
10 Push-ups
Time: 32:00
The HSPU were the real killer and sucked up the most time. Pull-ups and
Push-ups were punched out without much of an issue. The hanging squat clean
were technical with the lift following the squat being the tough part.

Muted Press (like a bench press from the floor)  7 reps of 5.

Finished with a successes on 180, but failed the 185.

Friday and Saturday

Today was a killer, but a lead in first...

Yesterday afternoon we had Directorate PT. I forgot my normal shoes and only had my new Vibram Five Fingers. Well, I'm still getting use to them, but I went anyways, knowing we would have a bit of running. Long story short, after running and a game of all things kickball (yes kickball) by calves, my right one specifically, are almost seized. Like rocks. Hurts to walk... So, I'm taking a few days off from the Vibrams and trying to loosen up the calves.

Today's work out didn't help either...

Warm-up
3 rounds of 10 Burpees, 10 bar to overhead at 95#, 10 pass throughs

WOD
5 rounds
10 Pistols (I did a mix of pistols while holding the wall and jumping squats)
~ 10m walking lunge with 45# plate overhead
10 straight leg deadlift w/ 70# kettlebell
~ 10m walking lunge with 45# plate overhead

My time was 11:20 - It was a killer, especially with the hamstrings screaming... Argh.


Saturday was a team WOD.


In pairs of two overhead squat 4500#
Then 30 Handstand push-ups
60 burpees
100 box jumps


Dave and I did it in 14 mins or so.  I was happy with how my Overhead's looked.  We split it up in 100 total overheads of 45# bar, alternating 10 each.  At 45#, I was hitting them pretty steady, being able to lock it out while others struggled a bit.  Handstand push-ups however...  Totally different story.  Dave was rock'n those while I was needing big time help.


Cashed out with more sit-ups...  114 again.

Burp, Sit, Kettle, Pull, Handstand

Today was a killer! Coach stole it from the main site.

70 Burpees (That should have been a bad sign right there)
60 sit ups
50 Kettlebell swings 1.5 pood (I used a 50# dumbbell)
40 Pull-ups
30 Hand Stand Push-ups (I scaled using the band... Others scaled with a strict dumbbell press, but I wanted to 'feel' being upside down')
Time: 18:40

Cashed out with 50 double unders at 6 mins. Slower than last time, but I was pretty pooped from this workout.
