Damaramu Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 My battle log is here. I've had a few before with cool little tags like "Get Diesel" and so on. But now I'm just a man that's fed up with being overfed! This being fat and out of shape shit has gotten old. So I'll share my journey with you here. Here are my stats: Name: Damaramu Weight: 338 lbs Height: 6'4" Waist Measurement: 55.5" Neck Measurement: 18.5" Bicep Measurement: 17" Quad Measurement: 26" I'll be sharing my morning walks, weekend walks and Crossfit workouts and lifts. Stay tuned for tonight's first workout entry! 1 Quote Damaramu's Battle Log: Sick And Tired Of Being Fat And Out Of Shape Link to comment
Damaramu Posted July 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 Tuesday July 12, 2016 Seated Overhead Press 3x3 (135) 3x3 (155) 12 min amrap 3 power clean (155) 3 kipping pullups 44 single unders *every 2 minutes do 5 burpees Rounds: 5 + 6 pullups Those burpees were a killer. Picking all 338 pounds up off the ground sucks. My kipping pull-ups are better though. I can get my chin up to the bar!

Damaramu Posted July 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 Wednesday July 13, 2016 Morning Fasted Walk 1.95 miles (31:16) Trying to get a fasted walk in in the morning just to aid with the fat loss and overall net energy expenditure for the day. We'll see how it goes. Plus it makes my aching back and knees feel better. I have Crossfit tonight. Quote Damaramu's Battle Log: Sick And Tired Of Being Fat And Out Of Shape Link to comment
Damaramu Posted July 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Wednesday July 13, 2016 Crossfit 3rounds for time (partner WOD) 25 deadlifts #155 (accrued as a team) 25 clean and jerk #155 (accrued as a team) 200m tandem barbell carry #155 (20 burpee penalty for setting barbell down) Time: 21:49 Burpees: 0!!! This was brutal. The guy that I did it with was tall and broad shouldered like me. So we couldn't stand side by side on the bar so we had to carry it like two men carrying a log. The barbell just dug into my shoulder the whole way. Not only was this a good lung burner and strength builder but it helped me build pain tolerance! I did not want to do 20 burpees and I didn't!

Damaramu Posted July 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 Thursday July 14, 2016 Morning Fasted Walk 1.51 miles (17:28) Evening Walk 5.02 miles (1:23:46) I was feeling beatup from my Crossfit activities this week so I decided to go for a long walk. This is the farthest I've ever really walked and I definitely felt this. Quote Damaramu's Battle Log: Sick And Tired Of Being Fat And Out Of Shape Link to comment
Damaramu Posted July 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 Saturday July 16, 2016 Morning Fasted Walk 5.12 miles (1:26:09) I ran low on time because I was going to a movie with my lady. I considered going all the way around the lake if I had time which is 9 miles. But the 5 miles did a lot to make me sore and chafed so it might not have been the best idea. But it is something I want to work up to. I didn't do anything on Friday because it was my son's birthday and we had a terrible thunderstorm in the morning that I didn't want to walk in and then today is my son's birthday party. But it's a pool party so I'll be getting lots of son and activity. Quote Damaramu's Battle Log: Sick And Tired Of Being Fat And Out Of Shape Link to comment
Damaramu Posted July 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 Monday July 18, 2016 Crossfit Workout Push Press 5x3 #135 (we were instructed to go light) Fight Gone Worse 3rds for reps *1 min at each station/1 min break between stations Wall ball shots #12 Sit-Ups Calorie Row Push Press #75 Air Squat Hand Release Push-Ups Box Step Up #20" KB Sumo Deadlift High Pull #35 Reps: 391 This WoD about killed me. I really wanted to break 400 but it just absolutely wiped me out. Quote Damaramu's Battle Log: Sick And Tired Of Being Fat And Out Of Shape Link to comment
Damaramu Posted July 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 Tuesday July 19, 2016 Crossfit Workout Deadlift 3x6 #345 (went light again) Hope 3rds for reps *1 min at each station/1 min break between stations Burpees Power Snatch #75 Box Jumps #24" Thrusters #75 Kipping Pull-Ups Reps: 144 Another killer day. My legs were smoked from the day before so I stated light on the deadlifts. I was actually supposed to do 5 sets then 3x1 with 405, but my legs were so dead that we called it good at that point. I need to start forcing my fat ass to get out of bed and walk in the morning. Quote Damaramu's Battle Log: Sick And Tired Of Being Fat And Out Of Shape Link to comment
Damaramu Posted July 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Wednesday July 21, 2016 Crossfit Squats 3x3 #205 3x3 #235 3x1 #305 Crossfit Kaze Athlete Workout 3 rounds for time 10 ground to overhead #95 200m shuttle run Time: 6:01 I had the second best time in the class on this workout! That made me feel good. 95 pounds is so light for me though that I was just throwing them up with muscle snatches unbroken. No workout tonight because we have my mid-summer party at work this evening. But it's at a place with laser tag! I always work up a good sweat during laser tag.

Damaramu Posted July 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 I had a work function last night at a place that had bowling and laser tag. I played like 5 games of laser tag and I was drenched in sweat, my calves and ankles were burning and this morning my legs are sore like I worked out all night. Quite a fun little workout.

Damaramu Posted July 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 Sorry I haven't updated. It was a busy weekend. I tried to stay active all weekend. I went for a 3.5 mile walk on Saturday and then on Sunday I was out swimming all day. Monday July 25, 2016 Crossfit DT 5 rounds for time 15 deadlifts #155 9 hang power clean 6 push jerk Time: 15:26 Tuesday July 26, 2016 (happy birthday to me) Crossfit Overhead Press 6x3 #165 Cindy 20 min amrap 5 pull-ups (used a black band) 10 push-ups 15 sit-ups Rounds: 8 + 2 pull-ups A couple of Crossfit benchmark workouts to start the week. I'm still woefully bad at bodyweight stuff. But back in February I did Cindy and got 8 rounds but that was doing ring rows instead of actual pull-ups (even if they were banded). So I'm proud of my effort. I got a lot of compliments on my DT time so I suppose it was good. Quote Damaramu's Battle Log: Sick And Tired Of Being Fat And Out Of Shape Link to comment
Damaramu Posted July 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 Thursday July 28, 2016 Crossfit Overhead Squat 2x3 #135 1x2 #155 2x2 #175 2x1 #185 CFT teams of 2 50 back squat #135 50 lunges #65 50 push press #65 50 knees 2 chest *for every time you drop the bar or drop from the rig you have to do 3 burpees Time: 11:44 Burpees: 6 There were not other men doing the workout so I ended up teaming with a girl so that's why the weights were so dang low for my WoD.

Damaramu Posted July 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 Friday July 29, 2016 Crossfit Floor Press 2x10 #185 CFT 20 deadlifts #185 100 single unders 15 deadlifts #225 100 single unders 10 deadlifts #255 Time: 7:01 This was a good workout. Deadlift is right in my wheelhouse. I mainly did touch and go on all of them. Quote Damaramu's Battle Log: Sick And Tired Of Being Fat And Out Of Shape Link to comment
Damaramu Posted August 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2016 Monday August 1, 2016 Crossfit amrap 12 minutes 2 power clean #135 2 lateral burpees 2 power snatches #135 2 lateral burpees *every round add 2 reps to barbell movements Reps: 10 Quote Damaramu's Battle Log: Sick And Tired Of Being Fat And Out Of Shape Link to comment
Damaramu Posted August 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 Tuesday August 2, 2016 Crossfit 3 rft 20 mountain climbers 60 single unders 20 weighted Russian twists #25 20 push-ups 200m run Time: 18:16 This was a hard count on everything so I did 20 mountain climbers each leg and 20 twists each side. My CF coach thinks my gas tank sucks so he told me I have to do more cardio intensive workouts. He's right because I absolutely struggled with this.

Damaramu Posted August 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2016 I decided to hit up a local gym and get some reps in in the morning before work. Nothing fancy.
