ChuckFit= Good week so far!
·
Rest.... although I did work on Muscle-up progressions, false grip pullups (rings to chest), and did some serious stretching and foam rolling. I also worked on holding handstands against the wall. We have a theory that some of the smaller, supporting musculature in my shoulders are weak from...well never having really used them (i.e. I was never a gymnast and didn't do any sports when I was younger). Hoping some of this will translate into stronger upper body lifts.
Day 4: 10/20/09
WarmUp: Burgener warmup, row
Clean and Press: worked up to 130x1. I believe that is a PR for a full clean and jerk. So super happy with that since I'm not working to increase my Oly stuff right now. Just maintain.
Dynamic Effort Press: 65 for 10 sets of 2. Very fast. Worked on form and technique.
Metcon: 15 pullups, 10 box jumps (24 inches) x 3 rounds
Time 3:32
Day 5: 10/21/09
Snatch: worked up to 90. Couldn't quite get 95. I'm high enough. Technique needs work.
Deadlift: worked up to 255x5. Yay! It's coming back fast. I want a new PR!!!
Metcon:
8 sets of 250 meter row with 60 seconds rest in between. Ugh. Legs hurt! Lost count of my times but the firt 2-3 were in the 1:46 500m/split range.
Had a 37 year old man come in today who three months ago was a normal, functioning husband and father who loved reading and who his wife described as incredibly intelligent. Today, he couldn't tell me the year, how old his daughter is, or even write a sentence. Puts things in perspective huh?

ChuckFit has the potential to be awesome. And fun. Not merely performance.
Miss you dudes, home Saturday.

Exactly. I've had more fun this week than I have in a while. Lifting heavy and making steady progress makes me smile at the end of the day. Celebrating that with Chuck makes it that much better.
Miss you too, dude. Hurry home. Chuck is very upset you won't be here for your date on Friday.
Totally missed my man-date with Chuck. It was, like, the worst Friday ever.
