CourtnieMarie Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Whoooo! Good goals. I think the best thing in the world for you, right now, is that Asshat and BoCM are gone (even if it hurts - that'll fade).I like your stress less challenge. You do you... you're pretty fucking awesome regardless.This^ Glad to see you back Instagram | pinterest read harder challenge | Battle Log | NROLFW Challenges: 13-1 | 13-2 | 13-3 | 13-3.5 | 14-1 | 14-2 | 15-1 | 15-2 | 15-3 | 15-4 | 15-5 | 16-1 | 16-2 | 16-3 | 16-4 | 16-5 | 16-6 | 16-7 | 16-8 | 17-1 | 17-2 | 17-3 | 17-4 | 17-5 | 17-6 | 17-7 | 17-8 | 17-9 | 17-10 | 18-1 | 18-2 | 18-3 | 18-4 | 18-5 | 18-6 | 18-7 | 18-8 | 18-9 | 18-10 | 19-1 | 19-2 | 19-3 | 19-4 | 19-5 | 19-6 | 19-7 | current Link to comment

nightlight Posted January 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Ok. Official Day 1 wrap up. Goal 1: Get back to the box.Skill: 1min AMRAP double undersgot 37. LULZ. I need to get back into doing these. My rope feels really heavy. I have a little bit of a lighter cable, but I need to work on using this one for now, even though the whip marks KILL. Strength:15 min to build to a 1RM Front Squat(all weight in lbs) 45x595x5115x2135x1 - started belting here155x1170x1 (PR!)175xfail -- i attempted this like.. 90 seconds after the 170. I'm happy with this. Felt solid. Had a little bit of a stick on the PR, but, eh. Go me. WOD/Conditioning4 Rounds for time of: 500m Row 15 Squat Clean Thrusters 105/70Rest between rounds the time it took you to complete 500m row.This BLEW.DNF. BADLY DNF.Like, I literally gave up. Me and my partner started with 65lbs on the bar. First round, I used 65. Second/part of third we used 55lbs. I wouldn't even count this. I mean, I did the row 3 times. I did some squat clean thrusters, but... not... well. I lost count. I gave up. and then after three thrusters in the 3rd round I had to run outside because I almost puked. This has NEVER happened to me before. Ever. Never felt like I was going to puke. Yikes. Then I have to remember I've only done one other WOD since October 10th... Goal 2: Skillz bro.Not today. Goal 3: Maintenance oops. Side Quest Diet/Lifestyle: Eat to PerformAte ok. not great. Tracked in MFP. Side Quest/Life: UFYHmy 5 min was dedicated to packing up stuff to be shipped out that I sold on half.com 1 "Come with me if you want to lift" -The Brominator "Later, I would learn that coincidences are the most planned things in the world.

Strawberry Squatcake Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Front squat PR!!!! YAHOO!! You're freaking awesome, my friend. Freaking awesome. I second what WQ says about saying it. And being mindful of negative thoughts when they come in your mind. I'd never be as mean to anyone else as I can be to myself.
