  1. I'm gonna do this one tomorrow. Yesterday evening Chelle and I went on a date night, climbed Chimney Gulch on our mtn bikes, 1,500 foot gain. Got a lifetime PR! 58 minutes! Previous was 59:55. Someday the PR's will slow down as we get too old, but it's great when you get back to back PR's isn't it boys?

    I think I can do it faster too, I was pacing @ around HR 162. Man it kicks your butt (climbing up big mtns)... it's like doing a CF WOD for an hour. Today I am resting!

  2. I am resting my left arm,as I made it hurt very bad climbing the wall at my house on a dare, so I ran that nasty ass hill for a moster pr on sunday of 7:51. My watch said my average heartrate was 176 with a high of 182 and I burned 92 calories in that time. The watch is pretty fun to monitor the wods with.

    Tomorrow I am arm resting with a wod with

    Four rounds:

    Run 400m carrying 60lb sand bag
    15 GHD situps holding 60lb sand bag

    That should suck plenty.

  4. Craig, nice job boner.

    I'm almost done with therapy and I have the green light to start lifting lightly with the shoulder. It's feeling real good and I was able to do some pushups and light shoulder press.

    12 weeks later, I'm finally on my way back, not 100% but getting there.


    Later guys

  5. I'm calling this the pill cause my 65# duck taped sand bag looks like a giant hard to swollow evil pill.
    4rds
    run 400m carrying the pill
    15 ghdsup holding pill across chest
    tt=17:52

    I am quite curious about the future consequences to my abdominal muslces from this work out.

  6. Did this one last night. I thought I was doing pretty good after the rows and squats, but forgot how much push-ups and pull-ups sucked. I especially forgot how push-ups suck the wind out of you quickly. I started out at 12 with a bit of time to spare, but was barely able to hold on to 8 by round 5.

    Row - 84 m (assumed 8 calories?)
    Squats - 16
    Push-ups - 8
    Pull-ups - 6
    Sit-ups - 10

    Total = 48

  7. I'm finally back from the road, I missed a couple of days. Had a paintball war w/ all my partners from work on Monday, holy crap I forgot how much it hurts to get shot from close range. I've got two wicked bruises on my left arm (got blindsided); next time don't fight in a t-shirt dope.

    Made up tabata today:

    Row 9
    Squats 12
    PU 6 - held 7 thru 6rds
    Pushups 8 - I tried like Mike to hold 12, then 10, then lost it
    SU 12

    Total 47

    I don't think I'd done this tabata before so there's my mark for next time. I think I'll do some snatch-balance practice tomorrow before making up the WB/MU WOD.
