11/29/2010 - hate doing this but need to take some time off from heavy lower stuff to let my foot heal. Don't want to be a cripple forever.
long dynamic warmup
Pistol warmups and then hit 16 in a row on my left leg. Nice technique and deep. Right Side ankle is too tight to get low, need to work on this.
Couple technique sets of squat cleans
AMRAP 12 minutes
2 rope climbs / 4 thrusters at 95lbs / 8 toes to bar. Don't know how many I did lost count. Around 9. Babying my foot, still managed to tweak it a bit. LAME!
Dragon Flags 3 x 8 - freakin tough
Foam Roll my right IT band. Its tight and it makes my right knee hurt. Foam roll feels terrible.

Maybe the worst workout ever.
Foot is still all jacked up and don't think it has been healing. Wasn't able to do push jerks today and it bothered the hell out of me
Long ass dynamic warmup - its cold as shit outside
Worked up to a couple sets of 225 x 1 - all felt very heavy.
Did some ring bodysaws afterwards.
Foot's killing me now. Time to take some time off my lower body and do some rehab. The benefits of being in physical therapy school!
In other news I killed my first chicken today. Took all the feathers off. Pretty incredible. Gives you a lot of respect for all of the food that we eat. Makes you think twice next time you try to eat as much meat as possible.

11/22/2010 training
Well glad the deload week is over, God that was boring. My foot is still a mess but the training today didn't bother it.
Long dynamic warmup and static stretch
Power Clean from floor
95 x 5, 5
135 x 5
185 x 5
205 x 5
235 x 5
250 x 5 both PRs here. Don't usually clean a straight bar. I've always been better at hang cleans. Pretty happy with this for now.
Front squat to 14" box
135 x 5
185 x 5
225 x 5
255 x 5
225 + green and blue bands x 4 - holy crap. Hard at the top.
Met-con - 8 minute AMRAP - 4 Handstand pushups / 8 x 72lb DB swings / 12 situps
9 rounds and 2 handstand pushups
Supposed to do the situps on the glute ham raise but I don't have one. Regulars will have to do. All time highs in strength and conditioning lately. Pretty amped. Must have been those two seven eleven spicy bites with chili and cheese i ate saturday night after not washing my hands and doing handstands at the bar.
Steph flipped the 450 tire for 5 reps today too. Pretty sweet.

deload is boring
Well, I'll start with some backstory.
Tuesday night, party at a friends. Lots of drinking, a couple hours of wrestling and then got lost outside. Couldn't find my way back to the apartment so I ran home. 10.7 miles.
HEYOOOOO!
Anyway, my foot is all messed up, no surprise there. Deload week has been a bit boring, today was fun. Been training with an old friend of mine, Matt.
Dynamic warmup
Some muscleup practice
Weighted pullups
warmups then...
100 x 6 - dunno if this is a best
Some interval work. 30 on 30 off the whole time
Ring dips / handstand pushups / ring pushups / Toes to bar / situps / knees to elbows
2 sets then done. Thats all.
