Friday Already?

Where did this week go? Busy, blah, blah, you know the drill. I am sore from the ghd on Monday. I worked Wed. and did the school field trip on thur. came home and was headed to the gym for the evening, and fell asleep somehow. I wont complain, I guess my body needed some rest. Back today for back squats 5x5 I pr'd at 285 my last 5x5 was 255. That sure made me happy. will be back this evening for yesterdays run. I will use that as a CFE. I have my training calendar done for the tri, if anyone doing training wants it. Maybe we can do some together. I have it on gmail so I can share it with you if you want. Jen, let's swim!!! get with me sometime..........
Everyone have a great weekend!

"QUAD DAMNIT"

That is what I named that shit ass wod. Holy cow! I was all ready to do a CFE and the 8am girls shamed me into quad damnit. So then I stretched and rested for about 30 min and decided I better do my CFE, cuz later I know I would not be felling it. (or I would be feeling it if you know what I mean). So yea, 5x800 with 90sec. rest. Double ouch. My range was 3:15-3:21. Not the best, but I have a legit excuse. I am really sore from the pushups, and the pullups yesterday. I did them both rx'd for the first time since the blowout. All were tough. Had to break them up into 5's then 3's. That hurt my time, but I was just trying to push the new tissue. Diet is much better now after the T day/B day weekend. Hope I can walk for lumberjack tomorrow.

Black Friday

More like "FAT" Friday. At work today running calls on every post turkey ailment you can think of. I thought everybody was shopping? Had a great day yesterday. Ran the Turkey Trot with Maddie, and Sydney. The website states 25:20, but the garmin said 24:53. I like the garmin better. The girls did Awesome. I am so proud they even try, much less finish. I never did anything like that at that age. I wish we would have had time to warm up before. After, we had a great morning at home all together. Eggs, bacon etc. We had dinner with Patty's family and it was awesome. Lots of wine, and lots of great food. Sorry I had to miss out on the post turkey wod. Hope everyone has a great holiday weekend. Remember, it only takes one meal to be back on track!!!

Yeah Friday!

Today is a little better than yesterday. My arm does not hurt as much and PT went much better. So glad its friday. At work tomorrow, but rest and football on sunday. Will be looking to do some CFE's to burn some cals before T day. What do ya say? Let me know. Hope everyone has a great weekend. See ya

What the Fuck is wrong?

So this week has been shitsville. I can't get my head right, and my body is not helping... Tue. I was warming up for the FB wod and tweaked a bone in the middle of my hand. I don't know, somwhere in a clean. So I started the wod and literally could not grab the bar, my hand hurt so bad. So I stopped the wod 2 minutes in. Very frustrated, I went for a timed mile. The rest of Tue. was pretty much the same. I mentally came unglued. A good nights sleep helped me attack 5a.m. on wed. Ready to put tue. away, I did the burpee/mile wod. 14rds which was 105 burpees, and my mile time was 20 sec off the day before. I was happy. Later Wed, my pec was not happy I did 105 burpees. I proceeded to get my ass kicked at work all night long. This morning I strolled into the gym very, very sore. My pec and shoulder very tight. I thought the 4 cups of coffee would get me through the wod. As I tried to warmup and scale the wod, because I realized pullups, and benchpress were not going to happen today. I found nothing I could really do without discomfort, or pain in my shoulder. Frustrated another day, I left without a decent wod. I got to physical therapy and explained everything. So now I cant do anything from the bellybutton up for 2 days, and she yelled at me. I guess my "greenlight" should have been a yellow light for now. Diet has also been shaky the past couple days. Not too bad, but borderline. AGHAGHAGHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

There that helped!

Get Monday out of the way

Up early Sat. to leave for our weekend away. I was suprised with a trip to Miami. I was suprised that the kids were coming along. I had to quickly repack kid friendly clothes. The chaps, and thongs are not for kiddy time... hahahaha. We went to the Sea Aquarium for the day on Sat. and stayed at the Shula Golf Resort. Had some beers, and some junkfood on Sat. Oh, did I say beers? Then we had a typical Brod family adventure Sat. night. don't ask!!! Sun. we were up with bfast buffet, and off to the stadium. The girls had never been to a football game. We did not tailgate, but we saw all that was going on. We had an awesome day topped off by a Dolphin win. Everyone seemed to have a really good time. Do I see a tailgate football trip in the future? Who's in?

Anyway back to work today, to cover for the guy that covered for me yesterday. Did a little tabata treadmill 12.5% @ 7mph... OUCH. That snuck up on me. Then 3rds of 15kbs - 20 weighted lunges - 15 GHD situps. Now I am ready for the rest of the week.

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????
