Killed some WODs in 2 countries this week!!!

Thurs Jan 8th
WOD

1000m Row
21-15-9
Front Squat 135#
Back Ext.

8:31...Woke up at 315 am (Sicily time) and the main page WOD was not posted yet, so I pulled a card from the Hopper Deck. It was pretty good, the front squats were a little harder then expected after the row.

Fri. Jan 9th
WOD CrossFit Va Beach
AMR in 20 mins:

100m Run
12 KB Swings 55#
10 Pull Ups

10 full + 6 Pull Ups...great grip killer!!! and it was could as hell outside. Did this WOD at 7 pm and my buddy Casey and I were the only 2 there. He got me by 2 pull ups, but he is also 11 years younger! LOL, not an excuse, but definetly a slight advantage after my recovery from the Thursday WOD was a 9 hour trans-atlantic flight!!! Legs were a little tight.

Sat. Jan 10th
WOD CrossFit Va Beach

Tabata:
Jumping Pull ups 137
Wall Ball 75
Burpees 50
Box Jump 74

Total 336...Tabata's are always hard as hell! This WOD proved that my endurance and stamina has come along way. I didn't gas as bad as i would have in the past and finished strong as hell!!!!

Sun Jan 11th
Rest Day...kinda

Went in with Thomi and worked on some light weight Oly lifts. Did the Burgner Warm-up a few times and then went into cleans. Used 75# for about 30-40 mins of work and then went up gradually, ending at 135# for a few reps working only on explosiveness, timing, and technique.

Mon Jan 12th

Started training today for work and ran late and did not make the WOD at Va Beach. So, I used today as a rest day. Going to try to make it back in tomorrow...
