Finally Well Again

I have been ill with an upper respiratory virus (and still coughing on occasion) since my last post on 9/12. On my trip to Juno Beach I did nothing except work and try to get well. I had to travel to Savannah, GA last week and basically slowly eased back into the xfit routine. So here are my latest workouts:

Tuesday 090929
Snatch 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps

I am pitiful at this lift. I cannot get into a real squat position with weight overhead. My best was 67# because I was worried I would dump it on my head if I went higher...need to work the technique.

Monday 090928
Rest Day

Sunday 090927
Complete as many rounds as possible 20 minutes of:
95 pound Thruster, 5 reps
95 pound Hang Powercleans, 7 reps
95 pound Sumo Deadlift High-pull, 10 reps
Post rounds completed to comments.

Used 87# (using curling bar). 5 rounds...pacing myself. I was worried that after this exercise that I may have rhabdo (thought I saw blood in the urine). However, no subsequent ill effects so I may have just had dark urine since I did run 5.7 miles earlier and drank coffee.

Saturday 090926
"Angie"
For time:
100 Pull-ups
100 Push-ups
100 Sit-ups
100 Squats
Post time to comments.

Had to break the first three up into sets. Last 50 pushups were on my knees since my triceps were shot. Killer workout. Time 19:00:00.

Friday 090925

Traveled home and then mowed lawn and did general stuff around the house...skipped workout.

Thursday 090924
Rest Day

Wednesday 090923
Five rounds for max reps of:
Body weight bench press
Pull-ups
Body weight back squat (sub leg press)
Post reps for all three exercises in all rounds.

Did only four rounds (Bench 9-8-6-6, PU 12-10-8-6, LP 15-15-15-15)

Tuesday 090922

Supposed to deadlift - I ran some and then did leg press up to 370#.

Monday 090921
Shoulder press 1-1-1-1-1 reps
Push press 3-3-3-3-3 reps
Push Jerk 5-5-5-5-5 reps
Post loads to comments.

Ran and did CFWU...still trying to get back on my feet from the virus.

090912 - 090920

No workouts...sick and just trying to feel better. I think I ran on the 20th about 3 miles, but that was it for the time period.
