There Will Be Sweat

Probably some blood too. No tears though. Never tears.

CFSB Day 52

Started with the awful knee-on-the-abmat/foot-against-the-wall version of the samson stretch, some fire hydrants, some third world squat, and some shoulder rolling to prep for today’s front squats.

Front Squat:

  • 2 x 225lb
  • 2 x 245lb
  • 2 x 250lb

Totally forgot to use the very helpful cue of externally rotating my femurs until that last set. I was planning on pushing it to 265 for the last set, but Nick talked me down to 250. I think I should have gone at least 255.

21, 15, 9:

  • Burpees
  • Pullups

Time: 4:48. Went very slow on the pullups and used the little grippy pads to keep my hands from ripping. First set was unbroken, second was 8/7, third was 5/4. Burpees were also too slow. It was cold as crap in the gym and I never really got warm for this.

Tending to the Barz

I took pictures while Zach and Dave biked and ran the Brooklyn Biathlon in Prospect Park today. Luckily there was a jungle gym setup right near the finish line, so I ran in for some chinning while they were hoofing around the park:

  • 10 Pullups
  • 10 Dips

Repeat 10x

Not for time since I kept running back to the race to take photos when Zach and Dave completed a lap. I got 2-3 rounds in during each lap until I hit 10.
