Clean & Jerk for about 5 rounds (1 each minute, increasing each minute so….1×2x3×4x5)

Haven’t done CJs since high school, holy ****.

Also did yesterday’s Cindy for x amount of rounds.  50 pushups, 25 pull ups on gravitron @ 90, 105, 120, 135, and 150lbs), and 75 squats.  Those squats sucked the most.

Also did some axe chops with 6&8lb MB SS with Bosu Ball Pushups for 30 when interrupted by a fitness counselor.  I sort of minded this, but I was interested in my BF% so I let him ramble on.  Liked most of what I heard.

I think the plan is to keep as much muscle as I can while dropping my BF down to 15%.  He says 230, I say what I’ve always said, 242 at the friggin lowest.

More on this tomorrow, zZzZzZZZ

WOD was supposed to be 10 wallballs with 20lbs, 10 GHD sit ups and 10 Back Extensions in 20 mins., but I had to sub the wallball with two 20lb DBS, the GHDs with a decline sit up bench and good mornings with a 45lb BB instead of back extensions.

Got 11 done in 20 mins.  Probably could have busted out 12 had I not been gassed so bad near the end.

God burpees suck.  That usually means they’re a necessary evil.

Yesterday – 6lb medicine ball – Axe Chops, Sit-ups, and Side to Side Crunches Superset 3×15

3×10 Burpees

Hip Abductors – Hold 15, 30, and 45 seconds and complete 10 reps after

Wrestling Stance Squats – 3×10 at 135lbs.

Standing Shoulder Presses SS with Lateral Raises – 25lb Dumbbells to failure then 20 and 15lb dumbbells.

Gotta get these burpees up to high school par….it can only improve my endurance!

Gotta get back into it!  I got too many people that got my back and some others I shouldn’t let down.  I was blessed with something I will utilize!  Gotta do what I can with the time I got to get better at what I like!  This means strength training and crossfit for me.
