I need to stay on top of this!

This would be so much easier to keep on top of if I had internet in my room. But no! I have to do this at the kitchen table and it's just not very comfortable. But here you go.

Wednesday: Deadlifts 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 Shoot for a new PR. Set a new PR at 237. I think the series went something like 207, 217, 227,232 ,237. Not a bad showing. Worked with PW and that was fun. I think we both push each other pretty hard.

Thursday: I had to work in Seal beach so I checked the CrossFit main page and found that crossfit laguna beach had a 5pm class that I could get to in time. So I gave them a call, talked to Jimmy and he said it would be fine if I came to the class. So I did. I really like checking out other gyms. The workout for the day was 7 rounds of 4 snatches, 4 OHS, 4 ealking lunges, 21 sit-ups. Not a very hard workout. I was the first one done. Time was 9:54 and I used 35#. Should have done 45#

Friday: I wanted to check out John Welbournes gym in Newport Beach so I went to that gym Friday at 9am and worked out with Max. Great gym to workout with and a fun coach. He had some really good cues for me while I was doing deadlifts and yalked shit with me every though he barely knew me. I liked that. The workout was deadlifts 3 - 3 - 3 - 3 - 3 - 3 - 3. Try to get your max three set PR for deadlifts. Mine was an even 200. Even after the early deadlifts in the week. I felt a little tired but was happy with 200. Then we did a met-con that was amap of push-ups and sit-up. 5 rounds. I don't really like these types of workouts because I don't push myself hard enough. I need a goal or a time to shoot for. Or even someone to compete against.

Saturday and Sunday were rest days. I had a football game and went on a 5 mile hike with the dog. Good times.

Monday: 5 rounds of 6 deadlifts, 6 hand cleans, 6 front squats, 6 push presses, 6 back squats and 6 push-up. Bar cannot be put down anytime during the workout. I went heavier then prescribed and did 75#. Time was 11:54. I really felt this one in the shoulders. My arms were screaming when I went from the cleans to the squats and then into the push presses. Oh it was painful. But a good one!
