Shovel, pull and press. yay.

12/13: rest day

WOD 12/14:

shoulder press (standing):
  • 135lbs x 1 rep
  • 145 x 1
  • 155 x 1
  • 165 x 1
  • 170 x 1 (pr!!!)

push press:

  • 135lbs x 3 reps
  • 145 x 3
  • 150 x 3
  • 155 x 3
  • 160 x 3

push jerk:

  • 135lbs x 5 reps
  • 140 x 5
  • 145 x 5
  • 150 x 5
  • 155 x 5

set a pr in the standing shoulder press...170lbs...my own bw! whoo! this is a personal benchmark in the world of athleticism! it's odd that my anaerobic upper body strength is progressing like crazy, whereas my squat and deadlift are stagnant. i shouldnt complain, however. i never thought i'd be able to do a bw press....so here's to me. thank ya!

WOD 12/15: weighted pullups

  • pullup + 70lbs x 1 rep x 7 sets (pr!!!)

i grabbed a 70lbs dumbbell, not sure exactly what i could handle, and i had no trouble with pulling it for 1 rep. i probably should have grabbed a 75lbs dumbbell or 80 or what not, but that would require walking across half the darn gym with it, and i was being lazy, lol. still happy with my performance, as 70lbs is a pr for me. whoohoo!!!

WOD 12/16: shoveling

i wasn't able to make it to the gym, due to the crazy weather, so i shoveled the hell out of my driveway, lol. im not sure how long i spent...i think 45m, but i went crazy and repped it out. whoo!
