*So Lucas, Gage, and I decided to write "hero" workouts for ourselves today. Ideally if one of us dies these would be the workouts people remember us by. I wrote Lucas' hero wod thinking I would never have to attempt it. I figured we would fall out of touch by the time we are 90+ : ). I was wrong, Gage and I did this wod and it was horrible. My heart rate never was too high for too long but the muscle ups killed me! Great hero wod. I hope Lucas lives a long and healthy life. I do NOT want to do this one for a while!

Strength
Today Mike started a new strength program that we designed together. His goal is to maintain his upper body while focusing more on his lower body. Today consisted of 2 sets of each lift, the lifts were pull ups, DB shoulder press, seated row, bench press, shrug, dips, triceps extensions, incline curls, and triceps push downs. I did 99% of this workout with him so my entire upper body got a nice workout.

*This combination of wods was horrible this close together. My first 5 hand stand push ups were probably the only 5 legitimate HSPU I did the entire wod. My shoulders were majorly fatigued. The combination of strength earlier and back to back wods did a number on my body. I am exhausted.

On the 95th rep my pull up bar broke away from the beam I had it screwed to, spotty craftmanship! I fell and caught myself right before I hit the ground, so I finished the workout after about a 5 second delay of me trying to figure out what had happened.

I am also trying to select weight that I know I will reach a burn out cardiovascularly before muscularly. Hopefully this will increase my cardio and muscular endurance.

It was a blast though. You know you are in the company of great Crossfitters when you can look over 1 hour in  and smile at eachother. This workout was a lot of fun to do with these guys.

*The most difficult aspect of this wod was the pull ups. Comando style pull ups are much moer difficult from a tree limb than traditional pull ups from a bar. Kipping was difficult and my biceps felt like they were going to explode. Overall I enjoyed this wod, my cardio came into play on the hill run at the end, I still have a long way to go with my conditioning.

The burpees were actually the easiest part of this wod. Again, my conditioning was a HUGE factor in why I did not finish faster, that and I did not have much rest between workouts : ). I need to drop about 10-15 pounds and I will be much more efficient.

The deadlifts were light enough to go unbroken throughout. My back is bothering me a little tonight some sciatic issues running down my leg. Hopefully all will be better in the morning.

Strength
Chest day with Mike was a little harder than usual. We super set flat bench with dips. I was working with 185 pounds and going for as many reps as possible. the first set I worked up to 16 and stopped because I wasnt thinking, the second was 12, third was 10 and fourth was 12.

*This wod was just as hard as I thought it would be. My goal going in was sub 20:00, maybe next time. My legs were burning more in this workout than they have in a long time. The rowing was difficult on a muscular level, not so much on my cardio. I rowed the first 1,000 in 3:20 and the second in 3:50(I think). I was feeling very sorry for myself on the second 1,000. The burpees went unbroken the first round until about 35 in, then I broke them into whatever I could manage. The second round was even harder. The squat clean thrusters were by far the worst part. Such a complex movement really drains your muscles and lungs equally.

*This wod felt amazing! I felt energetic throughout the entire workout. The wall balls were so easy I was trying to think and work on speeding my repititions up, I found myself wishing I had more time on them! The SDHP were not difficult until the 3rd round. Box jumps were the worst movement I was hoping to average 20 or higher everytime, almost! Push press was my best movement overall, I was able to move the bar very fast not resting at all during the first round and only breaking once the next, and twice on the third. Rowing was difficult but more annoying than anything. I was ready to work everytime I got on the rower but I missed the handles when I went to grab them on the last round.  Here is the break down of the rounds:
Wall Ball: 35, 33, 30 SDHP: 36, 30, 27 Box Jump: 31, 20, 19 Push Press: 42, 30, 28 Row: 18,18,14

*Lucas came up with this wod. It was almost a 3,2,1 go but I think he felt sorry for me so he wrote it on the board. : ) This workout was worst than horrible, purely because my shoulders were SO incredibly tired! I have never felt fatigue during a wod like I did today. Tomorrow is a much needed rest day; six days in a row was borderline pushing it this week!

I did all 20 front squats and burpees unbroken. I did 26 power cleans before setting the bar down and when I did sit the bar down it was only for a 2 count. The air squats felt good, I performed 31 before breaking then finished with the last 9. Overall a great start to my day!

WOD 2

This workout was part of a 2 part workout that Lucas and I drew up yesterday. Cali got sick last night and I couldn't manage to get it in. After a talk with Lucas this morning we decided 135 would be too light for me in this WOD, so I used 155. It was a great workout for this WOD design. I had to rest only a couple of times on the power cleans, the pull ups required some rest, and the push ups were completed unbroken. Hopefully I will complete another WOD tonight! I am feeling remotivated for the 2011 Crossfit Games!

The mini was everything I thought it was and then some! It was a great test of physical and mental strength. I have a new respect for runners, BUT they still need to have a healthy balance of running and strength training. My overall pace was 10:00 average. The first 6 or 7 miles I kept at a 9 something pace but I knew I would not be able to maintain it all 13.1 miles. IOverall I had a great time running, however, I am in no hurry to run another mini, especially without training.

This workout initially seemed much harder than it was. When I started the WOD I was not in the right mental state to be working out. That went away right around the 3rd round. The burning sensation in my legs was by far the worst part of the workout. The squat cleans felt heavy. I think I could have reached 7 rounds if I had the right mentality going in. Brandy on the other hand did awesome! She kept moving almost the entire time. For someone who has never squat cleaned before she sure blew this one away! She did however get sick after the WOD was over : ). I have never been moreproud!
