Where's my mojo?

3 rounds for time of:
9 Deadlifts, 70kg
15 Burpees
21 Push press, 25kg
400m run
21 minutes or so

I'm still finding it hard to get back into training this week. The recommended weight for push presses was 30kg and I struggled with it and had to drop the weight down. I'm really fustrated and annoyed with myself for not being able to continue training as hard as I was last week. I'm most likely fatigued and mentally not all there after Sunday's State Titles. There is only three or so more weeks until Nationals and I cannot afford to let this week go to waste.

The fourth month of the year begins next week. The year is going by a little too fast.

Tabata Intervals

8 rounds of:
20 seconds work followed by 10 seconds rest for each of the following:
Pull ups
Push ups
Sit ups
Squats
Score: 43 (total of the lowest reps for each exercise for all 8 rounds)

9 rounds for time of:
9 KB Swings, 16kg
100m Sprint
9 Burpees
100m Spring
19:08

Didn't even want to workout today. It seems as though I fall into a slight slump the week after our DB races. Must get out of it.

2009 Couplet Event

3 rounds of:
30 Wall balls, 6kg
30 Snatches, 20kg

Cut off time was 20 minutes and I only managed to get in two rounds. That's okay, even at the Games, some of the competitors didn't finish the workout. My back felt so tight during the workout. Loved doing the snatches though but again, I struggled with the wall balls. At least I'm aiming for the target each time.

Definitely a WOD to do again in a couple of months time and see how much I've progressed and how I fair up against the big guns.

No CFNQ today...

Instead, I went to dragon boat training this evening. Second training session this past month and leading up to our State Titles on Sunday. Felt a burning sensation in my shoulders as I paddled. It did nothing but make make me push even harder- awesome feeling.

My butt hurts

10 rounds for time of:
3 Strict pull ups
6 Ring dips
9 V Sit ups
20:14

Lunge for a better butt!

For time of:
400m Walking lunges

I really should've rested between today and Monday

As many rounds in 20 minutes of:
3 Deadlifts, 70kg
6 Ring dips
9 KB swings, 20kg
100m Backwards run
7 rounds

Six training sessions in a row is not a good idea. Yesterday wasn't too bad but I knew I would be struggling through today's workout. I then thought to myself, "Well, I do get tomorrow and Sunday off so I might as well tough it out for another day", and I died after my fifth round. Now for my much desereved break from training this weekend.

Angie

For time of:
100 Pull ups
100 Push ups
100 Sit ups
100 Squats
24:32

Third time I've attempted this workout at CFNQ, first time I've ever done it at the recommended level. Pretty happy with that time! Tomorrow's workout is going to be a killer...

21-15-9 reps for time of:
DB Thrusters, 15kg
Push ups
Double unders (double the amount of reps)

Mustn't be my week at CFNQ. TGU, wall balls and now double unders. Boy did those 15kg DB thrusters hurt...

Ouch

4 rounds for time of:
800m Run
10 HSPU
10 Medicine Ball Cleans
20 Ring push ups
20 Wall balls

3 rounds of:
12 KB Snatches (alt. hands), 12kg
12 Pistols
12 KB TGU, 8kg
12 Pull ups

Dragon boat training.

The TGU is my worst exercise, ever. I am so terrible when it comes to them. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. All I know is that I must work on them and improve. It's such an awesome exercise to have under your boat.

On a different note, was my first time back at training since CNY race, over two weeks ago, today. I've lost all motivation to train. I really just don't give a stuff anymore. I'd be at training not wanting to be there. I'll be on the way to training, wanting to drive back home. I just want to focus on my CrossFit and I can't do that at 100% whilst I have dragon boat to tend to.

As many rounds in 25 minutes of:
200m Run
20 Wall balls, 6kg
15 Ring push ups
5 Pull ups
5 rounds

Got so fustrated with those wall balls. I always have to jump on the way up to reach the target but I'm happy with five rounds. Couldn't have done any better with unbroken push ups and pull ups and fast runs.

It's going to be a good one

30 reps for time of:
Deadlift
Squat clean
Push press
Overhead squat
@30kg, where 1 rep = one round

Two rounds of:
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10 reps for time of:
Push ups
Sit ups
Squats
Double unders

The board did not mention that it was two rounds of the entire thing... I belted it out and was so puffed and drained and called for time. Bradley then informed me that we had to do it all over again. I've never felt like punching him in the face before.

Wounded Warriors WOD

21-15-9 reps for time of:
Pull ups
Clean and jerks, 30kg
200m Run

Felt the effects of a trashy weekend...

Lucky dip

As many rounds in 30 minutes of:
An exercise picked out from the lucky dip
5 Burpees

Followed by:
1km Tabata row

Decided against gym on Wednesday and went to HCF yesterday. I wanted to do Beau's birthday workout that was planned for yesterday this morning with Ben, hence why I went HCF yesterday, but I didn't even end up heading into NQ this morning. Shame!

Feeling under the weather today. Didn't finish the workout in the 40 minute cut off time.

5 rounds for time of:
21 Burpees
15 Knees to elbows
9 Strict press, 30kg
100m Farmers walk, 15kg each side

Go Heavy Month

This month at CFNQ, we'll be lifting heavy shit accompanied with some gymnastics and intense short runs. Awesome stuff... just don't give me heavy presses.

As many reps, in any combination, in 10 minutes of:
Deadlifts, 80kg
Ring dips
32/35
