blog slacker..lol

I have been a little demotivated lately, for a lot of non-gym related issues and some gym-related issues..anyhow.. I have been working out, sporadically. this week I did some kickboxing, some running, on Thursday I did this workout :

and today I got to work event stuff with DJ Guereca and Matt...

We Yoke walked first. warm up with just the yoke (120lbs)X100 feet and back, then yoke plus 100 for 100' and back (for some reason I got to go both directions, whereas the guys walked it down and the other walked it back.hmm. well, except the last walk I did, I only went 100" with it). Then I did yoke plus 180 for 100' and back.then yoke plus 280 for 100' and back. final walk was yoke plus 320 for 100'.

Farmers walk - can I say HOW HAPPY i am this is not in the nationals events? lol I did handles, then handles plus 25's on each end, then handles plus 45's on each end, which sucked and I dropped it once and then a plate flew off and I tanked it onto my left knee, and then the guys said, get up, keep going, so I did and I finished the 100 feet. (With the previous weights I made it down and back).

After that we hooked up the harness and pulled DJ’s truck 100 feet and pushed it back. Whew!
I was hungry and hoped we were finished, but they had a better idea…so we put everything away from outside and went inside to do a simulation of powerstairs. I did two passes, 2 steps forward and 2 returning, with 200 pounds and on the last pass I FIGURED it out. Lol. Easy peasy now.
Done now, right? No… DJ wanted to do log press. I can’t press the log yet, so I did clean and press with the axle for reps. I went a little too light, so I did about 10 with the axle plus yellow bumpers plus 5”s on each side. Next week I will push it harder. Event weight is 160. I think I can get it. I am actually happy that it is clean every rep because I am stronger when I pull off the ground and press rather than clean once and press for reps.

All in all a good workout and I am getting geared up to really focus on good workouts, good recovery, good nutrition from now until November!
