CF STATIONS #2
3 ROUNDS 1 MINUTE EACH,
1 MINUTE REST BETWEEN ROUNDS

WALL BALL 16#
SLAM BALL 16#
SITUPS
BOX JUMPS 16"
PULLUPS

3-15-10-  253 reps (MODS- 1-1-3-3 bands on pullups)

This one doesn't actually have a prescribed, but a suggested weight of 16# for the WB and SB.  I thought about doing the 20# for the SB, but decided to stay with the 16...why...don't know.  My rep gainers were the SB and situps.

5 ROUNDS
FOR TIME  (25 MINUTE CUTOFF)

400m RUN
15 POWER SNATCHES  65#

3-16-10-  24.49 (only 4 of 5 rounds completed)

I like this one.  My running has gone to shit compared to my normal slow speed.  I actually walked on every round except for the first.  I haven't walked as part of my running for the most part since sometime in 2008.  I wasn't real happy about that.  The snatches were not bad.  I was told I could do the run for round 5, but I chose not to as I would have been more irritated that I only had the snatches left to complete the full WOD than 1 full round.  Next time.  I was still an improvement over last time...as that time I completed all 5 rounds in I think 24 something, only doing 45# for the snatch.

BENCH PRESS 5x5
FOR WEIGHT

3-17-10- 125 all sets (set 4 was 4+1, set 5 was only 3)

We were supposed to pick a weight that we could do for all 5 sets of 5.  I was going to use 130#, the weight I used last time I did Lynne, that time I got 3x5 and 2x4.  I figured I be able to get that last one in each of the last 2 rounds...It had afterall been a month since Lynne.  However...it was a high gravity day.  I can usually get 125 for 5 on a regular basis, so the fact that I only got it for 3 rounds without shaking it out, ticked me off a little.  I wasn't the only one having that high gravity day...still doesn't make it any easier.

OVERHEAD SQUATS 5x5
FOR WEIGHT

3-09-10-  95, 105 (X4), 105, 110, 115

I started at 95, I knew unless it was another high gravity day that I could all 5 sets here if need be.  We have done this WOD before and I got to 110 or 115 and  I had made a few changes in form since then.  The 95 felt fine.  I cleaned it from the floor to start.  I went to 105 for the next set,  I dropped the weight after 4 and was going to do #5, but I couldn't get the weight back to lock-out, so I couldn't do the weight.  I cleaned that set off the floor too.  I believe I cleaned this next set of 105 from the floor too.  This time I was able to get all 5...was able to keep the shoulder stability the whole time.  For the 110 set went to taking my from the rack.  I got all 5 here fine, actually felt better than all the previous sets.  I went to 115 and again dropped the weight at 4.5-4.75 reps.  I was going to clean the weight back up to the rack as 115 is definitely a weight I can power clean.  But I only got it to about waist height, then let Coach put it on the rack.  I had been told at the 110 round that Coach could help get the bar up to lock-out, I didn't want to use that assistance as if I could do it myself, it's all that much better.  I did get the weight to lock-out un-assisted until I dropped it on the last rep.  I let Coach re-rack the weight and tried to get to lock-out un assisted again, yet failed.  I was expecting just a light bit of assistance...but man, it didn't feel like I helped at all.  I got the last rep out pretty easily though.

I previously was stable at the bottom, but unsteady at tht top.  I learned how to correct that problem as it seems I was holding my arms/shoulders too far back at the top.  I've been working on that and the correction seem to be coming along for the most part.  This day however...I was shifting to the right at the bottom of the squat...don't know what that was all about...o/well.  Hopefully next time I'll be able to do better.

Saturday was off watching the Mountain Region Sectionals at Camp George West...The athletes there kicked ass!
