Premium fuel

Morning Wod:
1) 3-3-3-3-3
-shoulder press
My weight of last set= 47.5kg

2) 3 rounds for time:
- 10 push press  (45kg)
- 20 double unders
- 200m run
My time= 4:36

3) 100 sit ups for time:
My time= 3:38 (Previous best= 3:53)

Strength & Power:
-work up to one rep max 'Bench Press'
My weight= 75kg

5-5-5:
-back squat                              (90kg)
-weighted chest to bar pull up   (body-fail)
-deadlift                                   (100kg)

Still following the 3x5 rep scheme for these movements for the S&P sessions. Today we substituted the shoulder press for a bench press because there was shoulder presses in the morning wod + we have a strongman competition coming up on the weekend and one of the events is a max bench press. Hadn't really done a proper 'bench' before, but the other guys had. I tried to keep up with the big boys- but failed miserably haha. Still good fun though. Managed to make all the other lifts but not the C2B pull ups, looks like i'm stuck on them next session, but happy i'm increasing the weight for the others (finally).

100's Wod:
100 double unders for time:
My time= 1:12
I am adding a regular post to my blog from now on, to help deter me from binging on carbohydrate laden foods. I, like many others in this gluttonous modern world struggle controlling my sweet tooth, and so by posting whatever goes in my mouth that basically isn't paleo/primal approved (a caveman's diet - no grains, dairy, processed foods etc) it will hopefully deter myself from fueling my "life vehicle" with crappy fuel. -use the good stuff, and the car will run better and last longer right?

Nutrition-less:
-3 Oreo cookies
-1 tea with milk/honey

  1. Gah! 1:12!!! New target! Glad I can still beat you in the sit-ups, that's at least something! Went heavy tonight on the push presses - slowed me down but the DU's were solid!

    Liked this post, keep them up!!! :)
