Turkey Day!

Thanksgiving, no exercising no dieting today!

I can't jump rope!

very tough today, didn't know if i would finish because I could hardly breathe yikes!
5 rounds:
7x burpees
7x thrusters (held 8lb db each hand, squat on ball, then pressed db overhead as i cam up from squat)
did 5 x then jump rope 100x
finished in like 11minish made pretty decent time until jump rope because i can't jump rope worth a crap, need to practice

Beginner pull-ups

3x
500 m row
21 kb swing (20lbs)
12 "pull ups" not full pull ups, the ones where you swing forward in a C shape, then jump back and over the bar so they are beginner/wussie pull ups!

this was very tough! not sure if i could finish my 3 sets, started off pretty strong (like 4 min) but then got really tired so ended at 14 something minutes

Mt Climbers don't seem THAT tough....

overhead press, maxed out at 55 lbs
then did metcon
5x:
125m row
10 push up +2 mt climbers (rep=1 push up on bench, then 2 mtclimbers per leg)
10 kettle ball swings, 20 lbs

this kicked my ass! finished in little under 12 min, times per set were all over the place, was very winded (as usual!) , tough workout
had to take some breaks-stiff & I was sore next day

Deadlift

did dead lift in several increasing weight increments
up to 125 lbs
started out with just bar, then added 20 lbs several times, then ten towards the end-tried to do 135 but just couldn't lift it, did maintain my form though
also rowed for several minutes, practiced form also but not sure how long or how far-maybe 10 minutes total
did 15 situps, then 10 around 10:45pm at home since I need the practice

Straight Rowing

all rowing
did sequence totaling 17 min
1 min on, 1 min rest, 2min on, 2 min rest and so on
did 9 intervals totals
1-2-3
2-1
2-3
2-1
was tough but i was going too fast instead of pulling slower and harder, need to work on form but either way got my ass kicked so it was good workout

Jerk

10 situps
10 bench dips
10 air squats
4 sets, 4:03
very winded, really had to crank it out on last 2 sets of squats

also practiced "jerk" overhead press/squat with several increasing weight increments-finally have it down i think

beginner's metcon?

just under 16 min
did the following workout:
750M row
20 push press
20 situps

500 M row
15 push press
15 situps

250 M row
10 push press

welcome to crossfit, and Cindy

Went to crossfit but it ended up being really bad time to go... seasoned crossfitters were competing doing Cindy of pull ups (5) pushups (10) and squats (15) and you were just supposed to repeat for 20 min-only made it thru 4 or 5 sets, then had to quit because I was so pooped and sore and swore I would never return after this because I couldn't hack it but talked to Carol who reassured me that everyone felt this way at first!

I am a pansy!

First day at cross fit, did some rowing (5 minutes) several leg kick stretches/exercises, work with band around ankles, many lunges and overhead extensions with PVC pipe-felt very tired and winded, did I think 3 sets of 10 of each exercise nonstop
