America F@#K yeah!

Tommy V, I salute you with my shredded hands. I salute all the vets who gave us what we have today, and those who will keep us safe tomorrow. I am not lying about the shredded hands. I have six blisters, and two have torn. Wow! that wod kicked my ass. High fives to all that did all the reps.

Did the CFE 5x800 yesterday I was in the range of 3:24 to 3:36. There was 90 sec. rest intervals. That sucked too. Little slips this past weekend with food, but I said its ok. Actually hopped on the scale for the hell of it yesterday and I am down 8 lbs from when I got my sling off. Clean eating does pay off. Not that I am trying to lose weight, but I would like to lean out a little more. I dont wnat to lose any strength while training for the tri. I hope to actually be stronger. Oh well enough of that. Is it Friday yet????

hollow weenie

At work on a beautiful Sat. Sucks I miss halloween with the kids, but i am sure they will have candy as a surrogate father until tomorrow. This week kicked my ass. I have been sore all week. A couple little slips on the food, but otherwise all is good. Have not heard from the CFE "ers" about Sunday morning run. I did hear that there might be some people running at Lakes Park. Can anyone confirm? I promise I won't run naked! Let me know. see ya soon.

Real push ups

So, today at PT I was chatting with my therapist. She restated one of my goals when I started, "to do real push ups". She said since I have been working out, she wanted to see one. After some hesitation I did a "few". We will leave it at that. Not real pretty and a little painful, but I did some. Baby steps right? Don't worry they won't be part of my work outs anytime soon, but they can be in my warmups. Maybe!
I have been eating really clean. Wait, I did have PF Chang's last night. Only had Beef and veggies. I know the sauce was bad for me, but soooo damn good. I did not know they have a gluten free part of their menu... Something to think about!!!!!
Trail run Sunday. Who's in??? I have to work Sat. and will be off at 7a.m. on Sun. so if 8, is not too late of a start. I am good. Let me know... Oh yea, by the way, Today's wod SUCKED. F'd me up for a long time. Although it is the first day I have lifted anything overhead. Doesn't matter still F'd me up.
To all the CFE girls, I am counting yesterdays football wod as a CFE. It sucked too. 16 x 110m sprints with 40 sec rest. Yea a real puker!
Talk to you later

Bored

So it's Sat. right? Patty had to leave town. The girls are statying at her sisters, because I have to work tomorrow. Soooooooo... I went to the gym to do heavy deadlifts tonight???? I think there might be something wrong with me. I guess bored working out is better than bored eating... So I did 555333111 HEAVY!!! Now I am eating a blackened steak, spinach, guac, and a few glasses of red wine. That to me, with the football on tv,it is a good night... Will try to do a CFE at work tomorrow. maybe I'll see you Mon.

First day on shift in about 2 1/2 months. Nice to be back. A little crazy this week. No wod this morning, Patty had to leave town for a friend of the family. She will be back Mon. So our morning routine was f'd up. I will try to do a wod at work. Will be at the gym late in the morning. Very hungry today and I don't know why? Been clean on the groceries though. See ya

Wednesday

My mind says yes, but my body say NO!

When the alarm sounded at 4:30 I really felt I was physically unable to work out. So, I didn't. How's that for comfort zone? Then I got up later, decided to skip my last half day of light duty, and went to work out about 8:30. Very tight, sore back, and legs felt the same. I wound up doing the CFE wod Kary did the other morning on the rower. 3x5min with 3 min rest. 1341m,1271m, and 1279m. Kinda sucked. Might do some sprints after therapy??? Totally clean eating so far this week... could there be a week with no cheats? doubt it! Still need to hook up with cfe girls and get a schedule. cya
