An absolutely weak, uninspired effort on my part. I had no energy, no motivation, no nothing. I followed it up with an equally pathetic effort on the C2. I need to have a talk with myself about my motivation/attitude! (Seriously, I’m going away this weekend and I think the two days off will do me good…both physically and mentally…)

Dunno, I don’t seem to be very fast in thrusters when the barbell gets heavy.
Found out my breathing has been lousy all the way through, so with a little improvement (i.e. holding breath), I got more stable and it felt better.
So I got excited a couple days ago when I discovered that a new affiliate was opening on my way to work, Crossfit Athlete Lab. AWESOME! I quickly emailed the trainer and expressed my interest. I got a quick, enthusiastic response, increasing my excitement…finally, to get some real instruction, not just Starting Strength and videos (even though they are excellent resources). I was thinking about which days to schedule my three hour long intro classes when my wife came home and said, “I just got laid off…effective tomorrow.” *&#$%*&$#
Oh boy. Good thing Father’s Day is coming up. *sigh* I guess I will have to wait until then and hope I get classes as a gift.

Sorry to hear this Vindi, still maybe they’ll have a free workout sometimes and maybe you can go and in do a few one on ones to check form etc
Two rounds
750 M Row
20 HSPU progression (feet bridged) (did these unbroken 1st time )
9:53
Two rounds
65# thruster, 20 reps
20 tuck pull-ups
20:21
Second round was hard, but wanted to go heavy. Pull-ups got down to one at a time, but did them all.
Today:
3 rounds run 800
35 Back Extension
35 sit-ups
26:03, over two min improvement from last try at this.
Use rings for BE, lay on floor, wedge feet in ring and pull underneath while arching back. Feel it more in hamstrings than a regular BE, but it works and is pretty hard for me after 20.

Nice Kammi!
Yes, NICE! And why do you think you’d get FASTER when the barbell gets HEAVIER? You can go slow, just get it overhead.

My goal was to break 25:00 with this run. I’m a little frustrated because I really gave this everything I had.
I am really hopeful that as i work on learning pose running that my times will come down. I am still heel striking a bit, but my foot is on the ground about half of what it used to be.
I am, and always have been a really slow runner, but I’m working on this weakness.
