Fran (rx) 4:11 (PR). Last time 5:02
Used a medball on the thrusters just to compare with last time and keep consistent. I think it gives too much help, mentally at least. No more ball for the next try.
Weather was good for a boost too.
awesome time Adam
Fran 4:41
Need to fix kip and get full extension on pullups...
Fran 9:31 Rx
first time doing 95#. Too slow on thrusters today. Wrists were killing me and had to do sub sets of 3 to compensate. Lots of room for improvement next time.
800 meter time trial
2:11
(32, 30, 37, 32)
Very windy.
Hit the wind big time on the 3rd 200.
200 meters x2(27, 27)
Good tempo, tailwind
4 x50 meter backward run
2x50 meter hop-hop-go four point start sprint.
Feel fast, need lungs. Must run more distance and tempo.
Bench press
155x3, 165x3, 185x7
Rx'd 4:13. 25 seconds slower than my best time.
K2 Rx'd 7:56 (PR)
Got my ass handed to me today. Thank you Fran! It definitely is a good catalyst to clean up my diet, especially my love for Bacchus' nectar.
Thanks Dan for "the special syrup."
K Rock - nice catch (supposedly).
