Jan 22 2010 - Triple-Under!

Today I did my first triple-under. One of the Get Built members saw a jumprope demonstration at school and threw down the gauntlet. I got one and only one.

Snatch Practice - Drill Set 3 (25kg)
Mid-Hang Sn Jump + Pull x 2 reps x 4 sets
Mid-Hang Sn Pull x 3 reps x 6 sets
Tall Muscle Snatch x 5 reps x 5 sets

GB WOD
30 Ring Rows (3 sets of 10)
Bench 145# x 5, 170# x 3, 190# x 8
Wt Ring Dips +25# x 5 reps x 3 sets
Barbell Curl 65# x 5, 70# x 5, 75# x 5
Wt Chin-Ups +25# x 5, 35# x 3, 44# x 3

The ring dips were hard; I'd never done them with extra weight before.

DEC 12 2009 - Gardening and Roller Derby

Conditioning
5 rounds As Quickly As Possible
. 3 Power Snatches (75% 1 Rep Max)
. 6 Ball Slams (40# ball)
. 9 Ring Dips
. Rest 45 sec

Compared to the power cleans yesterday, the snatches were much more smooth. The rest period after each round let me push through a little harder. The dips were the sticking point yet again. They got hard after the first round, which was sooner than I expected. I used 45kg for the power snatches and a 20kg kettlebell for the ball slams. The kettlebell left some decent-sized craters in the flower bed.

This evening I got to see Chattanooga's roller derby gals at their first home bout - an exhibition event drawing a crowd of about a thousand. It was good fun. Looked like the gals were working hard and having fun smashing each other up. The rules are still a bit beyond me, but it looks like the female equivalent of hockey, in that fighting is an encouraged part of the game.

NOV 30 2009 - Press Progress

Squat 3 sets of 5 reps (85kg)
Press 3sets of 5 reps (47kg)
Rest
5 Rounds As Quickly As Possible:
. 7 L-Pullups
. 14 Ring Dips
. 100m Sprint

I was able to complete all 15 reps of the press at 47.2kg today! Last time I only got 11 reps. My squat feels strong, but heavy. I come up slowly. The conditioning workout took me 14 minutes, 30 seconds. The ring dips really slowed me down.
