lets hope they have bench!!

Bench Press
5x5 at 315#
got em all, felt strong.

wod
5rds
10 ring dips
10 box jumps 24"
10 ghd
me 6:11

i felt better, faster and stronger today than i did yesterday....hmmm. idk.

im gonna get embarassed at sectionals

"firebreather" double day (in parentheses because i sucked and was most certainly not a firebreather)
 wod 1
5rds
7 clean and jerk 155#
21 dub unders
me: 9 something

not really sure what to say about that, it was hard to set up each time quickly and get back on the bar but still use correct form rather than just rip it off the ground

wod2
amrap 15 mins
5 thruster 135#
7 burpees
9 c2bar pull ups

me: 6 rounds plus 5 thrusters and 7 burpees.

again im not really sure what to say. cliff almost tied me so i think i wasted money even signing up for sectionals at this point.

on a good note, my wrist was pretty much fine the entire day, after wards it felt a bit loose but otherwise was fine. i feel like now it has more strength and even when the bones move or whatever it is that goes wrong, the end result is much less painful or debilitating than it was before. progress?

6 Power Snatch 135
10 Box Jumps 24"

push push push....pull

21-15-9

Push Press 135#
Ring Dip
Burpee
Calorie Row

me: 12:21
last time was 13:18 on 8/25/09
I really tried to do a push press and not a strict press for the first 21 and 15 that way i would have push left for the dips, burpees and last round of 9's. It worked pretty well I think, cuz i just pushed the last 9 really easy. The hardest part was transitioning from the rower to the push press, the rows were fairly easy but i was winded when i got back on the presses and it took me too long to get back to working.

dont use the new ball....

4rds
100m run
25 ball slam 40#

me: 6:51

the ball kept bouncing all over the place or it would hit on the flat side and not bounce at all. Kinda frustrating but I figured that could happen at sectionals and you would just have to deal with it.

RUN between transitions!

bent over row 175x10x5

being fast between transitions WILL make your times faster. As long as you relax on the dub unders they get easier...

me no like genie squats

front squat 5x3
275x3
285x3.... felt a little tweak in my back
285x after standing around for 25 mins i decided that my back was again about to tweak on me from front squating so I was over it.

weighted pull up 1,1,1,1,1,1
53, 70, 88, 93, 95.5, 98miss, 95.5

wod
5 rounds
toes to bar 7 must be unbroken
deadlift 225# 12 must be unbroken

me: 6:15  only the last set of toes to bar did i drop off from grip failure, which then added a lot of time because i needed to start over and really shake out my forearms. I basically couldnt untie my shoes afterward cuz my hands were so fatigued. :)
