Update- Like I Could Crawl out of my Skin

Snakes are ewwwwww
3/21/11
Back squat 3-5-7

5 Rounds for time:
25' Handstand walk
5 Burpees

Not a great day.  Weights are starting to get really heavy in the 3-5-7.  To the point where I don't really trust myself to squat at home with my iron plates.  Only managed 1 rep with 310#, 280x5, and 250x7.  The metcon was fun.  I did it on the sidewalk in front of my house with my 5 and 7-year olds cheering me on. 

3/22/11
DE bench press 8x3 on the minute, 50% of 1RM
Ring dip 2x10
Handstand pushup 5x5

Weight for the BP was 125#.  I experimented with a few different methods of adding band weight, which was new and cool.  May switch to a Westside style strength phase since I'm getting so beat down under heavy barbells lately.  Elbows were screaming after yesterday's handwalking.

3/23/11
Front squat 3-3-3

5 Rounds for time:
7 Dumbell thrusters 45#
7 C2B pullups
7 Burpees

GHD situps 4x10

Finally a lift goes my way.  Hit 255# in the FS, a 10# PR for a 3RM front squat.  Then cut the weight to 230# and strained a muscle in my upper back.  Fuckin' awesome.  Metcon went well thankfully.  5:56.  All sets unbroken. This was Rick's (trainer at CFWC) birthday WOD.  35 today.  Obviously.  Happy Birthday man!  Hope you had a good one
