Oct 22nd & 23rd

I need to get back in the habit of updating this blog after each day of training. My days have been a lot busier lately so I don't always get around to updating my blog daily. Plus, now that I am working and not sitting in lectures all day, I have a lot less time on my computer. Most of my internet browsing I do on my phone, mostly because it is much more portable and the wifi connection doesn't reach my bedroom. Also I have become much lazier with my video making so I think it's about time to bring that back as well. Hopefully just posting this will help me get back in the groove of things.

Update on some things; aside from getting sick this weekend, I have been feeling pretty good lately. My numbers seem to have taken another climb which is excited and I can attribute that to 2 things; my programming from Michael, as well as my nutrition from Mike

I have also been playing some outdoor soccer which is a good change of scenery for me, so I have been enjoying that. Both co-ed and a women's league for now, but the women's league season will end shortly here and the co-ed team just started up this week. 

Im doing a local Halloween team comp this weekend which should be fun. I haven't done too many throwdowns lately, especially team ones, mostly because I wanted to get more serious as an individual and with my own training stuff, but this should be a fun way to get back into it and 2 guys at my gym needed a girl so i figured why not. It is a team of 1 girl and 2 guys which is probably my "ideal" team situation because finding a second girl seems to always be the issue, or a second girl is sometimes the weakest link. Here is a pretty badass logo we are getting on some Tees for the weekend. Sara Kong designed these and drew it out herself. I am quite impressed, as my artistic ability is a very sad story.

PM - Z1 Run

30 minute Run @ 50% - make sure you vary the route every time

7-- legs felt heavy and calves were super tight

Wednesday - BSq int (low) + Press + Oly based CP

A. Back Squat @ 20X1, quickly build to a tough 3

B. Seated Barbell Press @ 30X0, 2-3 reps x 5 sets, 3 min

C. 7 rounds for time:

2 unbroken Power Snatch @ 135lb

3 unbroken OHS @ 135lb

4 unbroken Ring MU's

A. 240#-- this is only 5# off my personal best of a 1RM so this was exciting

B. 95#(3), 100#(3), 105#(3), 110#(2), 110#(3).. these were tough... bar position was key

C. 10:30.... this was really hard, felt like a barbell complex and MUs because I always went straight from the power snatch into the OHS and that was brutal, the muscle ups were really not that bad compared to the barbell movements/load.
