Tonight was my last workout before my next Summit attempt of Mt. Rainier on Monday. All I did was some bench press.

6 Sets: 45# x 30; 95# x 20; 135# x 10; 225# x 8; 225# x 6; 225# x 5

 I will rest for the next 3 days then hit the mountain. Wish me luck.

Here was tonight’s workout…for time…Called the CrossFit "Filthy Fifty" & it is HARD

50 Box jump, 29 inch box
50 Jumping pull-ups
50 Kettlebell swings, 35 # dumbbell
Walking Lunge, 50 steps
50 Knees to elbows
50 Push press, 45 pounds
50 Back extensions
50 Wall ball shots, 15 pound ball
50 Burpees
150 Jumpropes

I finished it in 27 minutes even & I am whooped. Thought I was going to lose my dinner a couple of times.

Last night was only my second workout this July. Between Summiting Mt. Rainier, Recovering from Summiting Mt. Rainier & my 2 weeks in Mexico working on a building project I have had very little gym time. I am preparing to climb Rainier again next week so need to get in at least 3 workouts this week. Last night was one of them & here it is…

3 Sets of 21 - 15 - 9 Reps of the following exercises.

115lb Thrusters

Knees to Elbows on the Rings

36"/ 28" Squat Box Jumps

Really worked up a sweat for sure. Tonight I’m going to tackle the dreaded Filthy Fifty. Yikes:)

Last night I finally got my butt back into the gym after my grueling summit climb of Mt. Rainier. I did a modified CF WOD. It consisted of Benchpress & squats. 5 sets of your bodyweight (170# for me) as many reps per set as possible. I was pleased with my rep maxes.

Bench = 25, 19, 17, 15, 14 reps

Squat = 25, 30, 25, 25, 30 reps

Very tough
