Wod- "Diane"
21-15-9
-Deadlift (225lbs)
-HSPU
Time= 13:11

I don't know the exact time i got last time i did this but i'm pretty sure it was about 14:30, so not unhappy with the result.

Evening wod:
3 rounds for time:
-25 pull ups
-25 knees to elbows
-25 box jumps        (24')
-25 power cleans    (95lbs)
-25 dumbell swings (55lbs)
time= approx 32 mins

Did this in the Uni gym with my friend Jeff who has crossfit experience and is fricken strong, but he can't kipp so the pull ups let him down, he still only finished a few minutes behind me. This was way harder than i thought, by the 2nd round your forearms were shot! It didn't help doing it after Diane this morning either..

3,2,1.. go

At crossfit Kinetics the one thing that's noticable is the workouts tend to be quite short. This is to make time for strength/skill beforehand but you know it's going to be hard and fast everytime.

Wod:
7 rounds for time:
-7 wallballs (20lbs @ 10')
-7 pullups
time=4:31

Did butterfly for the first 4 rounds and theyare feeling much better, not perfect but getting there. one of my fingers ripped by the 4th round and had to go back to kipping for the final 3 rounds. Just over two weeks untill the open begins... time to take it up a notch!

Tyre Flips

Strength:
-1RM Shoulder Press
Final weight = 125 lbs / 56.8 kg

Wod:
AMRAP 3
- pullups                (58)
*Rest 3 mins
AMRAP 3
- tyre flip + in/out (22)

The three mins went really fast, i feel like i've lost a bit of conditioning since coming to Halifax since i think a few months back i got mid 70's for a 3 min pullup. However i hope some strength might be taking it's place?
