warm up
run 1 mile
8:00 get legs moving.
baseline
bear complex
75
85
95
-stopped at 95. felt solid all the way thru. accomplished what i needed to with 3 sets.
Strength

5-95
5-105
5-115
3-135
3-145
3-155
-first three sets were strict press and solid.
135 went up good. still solid press.
145 last rep required a little drive
155 were heavy and required a little dip and drive
Handstand push up
5-5-5
3 sets of five. good form and went pretty good all the way thru. need to get deeper ROM but will be working on these.
Work Capacity
3 rounds
50- double unders
20- push ups
40- double unders
20- walking lunge
30 double unders
20- hand to hand kettlebell swings 36#
-worked thru this quick. all rounds of push ups, lunges, and swings unbroken. tried to focus on smooth double unders. flow, rhythm, breathe, etc. felt pretty solid. couple broken sets here and there but was stringing some good ones together. again a skill i need to focus on.
Foam roll
Plyo
Yoga
-again spent some time focusing on this. definitely pays dividends in the long run.
tomorrow? hmmm not sure. kind of making it up as i go this week. we'll see. maybe all bodyweight with some running or rowing? maybe power cleans and sprints? hmm.

little b-day party for Mom after to finish of the day.
felt pretty crappy by later in the day. not sure what the deal was with that.
Monday

-this was supposed to have a third round but the run started to twinge my right thigh...argh. not sure whats up with that. felt great up till about 380m of the 2nd 400. so i called it in favor of being able to run/walk over the weekend!!
manmakers are brutal. i dropped the weight to see what they were all about. they are hard...
curtis p's are always super fun... first round was 3-1-1 second round was 2-2-2-2-2

-did the set of 5 at 85% so 185. they were hard and the form on the last 2 was poor. had thought about doing a few sets there but thought better after form broke down.

rest day....
i am sore. can't lie to you. yes i could have gotten up and gone in. i was awake at 4. it hurt to turn the alarm off. yup. sore.
it feels good. but i know my body needs the day. wouldn't be generating any power in there today. just going thru the motions and that's not what i need.
got a new book last night and was up till 10:30+ reading it as well. should have been sleeping but its a good one. will post up info later.
might try to make the MTB ride at Stewart tonite but that's doubtful. we'll see. it will be sloppy if i go and not stoked to trash the bike. argh, who cares...we'll see...
peace!

Tuesday 8-9-11
let the alarm snooze a couple times and then finally hopped out and got to it.
little sore this am. nothing crazy. just know i did some work yesterday...
Warm-up
run 1 mile
8:00 pace. just let the body wake up a little.
active stretch- hip mobility, sampson, squats, etc... loosen up a little
Baseline
5 rounds
run 400m
20 push ups
20 wall ball
-actual workout called for 3 rounds but i was feeling a little frisky.... so went for 5.
solid work on the runs and the legs felt good. little twinge on run 4 but nothing crazy. all 6:50ish pace. push ups were chest to deck and felt good. wall balls same as yesterday but felt much better. probably because i wasn't smoked! solid work here.
Work Capacity
4x500m row
the SF workout called for a 3 mile run but with the weird leg thing i didn't want to push it. felt solid on the mile and thru the 400's so figured i would change it up and hop on the rower.
1:33
1:34
1:36
1:34
-3 minute rest between rounds. times were consistent and seemed pretty solid. roughly 32-34 strokes per minute and felt pretty strong. last 100 always brutal... this was a good sub for today.
Foam roll
Plyo
Yoga
-the foam roller kicked my ass again. my back was all locked up and this helped tremendously. IT bands were gnarly and was able to loosen them up a bit. mixed in some plyo sudo yoga moves to further stretch it out.
this was just what i was looking for today. solid work.

so last week was a wash. totally in post race promoting hang over, busy at work and some external stress.
weekend was chill as well.
no riding, no running, just chilling.
rain killed the ride plan for sunday. no desire to trash my bike, etc...
up early this am and looking forward to some suffering!
warm-up/baseline
run 1 mile
8:00 pace
-still have some funky twitchy issue in the right quad. weird. ran thru it but had i tried to get a few more miles in it may have been a repeat for last weeks lock up. odd.
active stretch
sampson, squat, arm circles, etc....
work capacity
50+ 1 round for time of..
50 box jumps
50 pull ups
50 kettle bell swings
50 walking lunges
50 knees to elbows
50 push press @ 95#
50 mountain climbers
50 wall ball
50 burpees
50 double unders
-this was actually the perfect wod to come back to because it is way outside my wheelhouse. long chippers traditionally have beat me down hard. the mental aspect is the worst. i focus on whats ahead and not the task at hand.
-today i tried to work on that. good reps, good pace, focus on the task at hand, break it down into little pieces, chip away at it...
-50 minutes later and i was done! the first 4 or so exercises weren't that bad...but by the time i got to the push press, and then the wall ball and burpees were brutal. the double unders were hard as i was smoked. took full concentration to group a bunch together.
-this was a true smoker. wanted to quit a hundred times. didn't think i could even begin the burpees let alone finish them. perfect for today! solid effort. solid.
Strength
Deadlift
10- 135
8-185
6-215
4-245
3-3-3
255
265
275
not a great deadlift session but was smoked from the work capacity so kept the weight a little low and focused on form and good strong pulls. let myself recover while working thru these sets and felt pretty solid on the sets of 3. stopped after 3 as i want to be able to work tomorrow as well!! ha! walking back into it, not running!
need to get my head back into this. got some serious crap going down at work, home, etc... so need a solid focus, and a healthy outlet.
peace!

Friday
woke up a bit sore and a bit tired so i took the day off. thought about a pm run but the t-storms put an end to that!
Saturday

weird.
will be in full on Darkhorse 40 promoting chaos for the rest of today and then during the event tomorrow. going to be crazy!!
playing in a golf outing monday so most likel a day off from training. hoping the legs come back to life!!

back on track. or back to the old routine. or something....
up and out this am and back to the gym.

solid. steady pace to start and then kicked it up a little in the end.

solid progression to 3 sets of heavy triples. not super heavy but good. form solid all the way thru. had a bit left in the tank after 305 but didn't want to push it. could have gone 5x3 i guess but wasn't interested in going overboard.
solid strength work after being away from the barbell for a few weeks.
met-con
10-pull-up
20-24" box jumps
30-push ups
40-double unders
50-sit ups
40-double unders
30-push ups
20-24" box jumps
10-pull-ups
7:40
felt pretty good. probably should have programmed a longer met-con here as this flew by. it wasn't easy. gotta keep working the double unders as consistency is an issue. all other were unbroken and pretty quick. maybe do something like this for 3 rounds with a set recovery in between? hmm.
foam roll
yoga/plyo
-it bands were tight from the running and riding volume and the lack of foam rolling. spent some time hurting myself with the roller. much better now.
lower back a little tight from the deads and from helping a friend move some heavy furniture last night.
feels good to be back in the groove.
back to sealfit proper next week probably.

Tuesday 7-12-11
Monday pm.
got home to a hot and sticky early evening. did a few things around the house and said f-it and went out on the road bike.
figured simple recovery ride.
after about 10 minutes to get loose i was drilling it. felt pretty solid.
reeled it in after about 45 and spun home better than recovery but not crazy fast.
just under 20 miles with a low 17 average. not so bad for 95 with 200% humidity!
will probably get out on 2 feet tonight. maybe head down to the park for a loop. haven't run the trails in a while and might be able to catch a little shade.

weekend wrap up
Friday night was fixing the a/c and watching the bad ass t-storms roll thru!
no run or ride due to the crazy weather!
Saturday
got up early and got out on the road bike for 25 miles. was thinking of heading into jersey for a longer ride but had a few other things to get done so kept it on the shorter side.
ran a few errands and then mowed the lawn in the now blazing heat! push mower marathon for time!
Sunday
mountain bike ride from the shop
24 miles.
did a tour of the racecourse. conditions were stellar. considering the crazy rain on Friday. good stuff. felt great. made all the climbs on the course and was riding solid.
Monday
forgot to turn the alarm on! oops reset it to 4 but never turned it on.
oh well.
will get out for a run later and mow the back yard so that will have to do!!
really liking the little change of pace. getting to play outside and utilize some of the strength i have built in the gym. great time of year to be outside in NY!
