CFWU

12wk - W5D5
21 squats - 400m - 21 squats
60lbs - 0.5mi on stationary - 60 lbs

Whew!
I did some yardwork (digging, planting, tree trimming...) and tried to talk myself out of it -
3 2 1 go...

Squats were killer this time. Hard to keep form. The last set included some pauses to that end.

Total time 4:55 (1:42 on bike).

Not too great, focusing on technical skills currently, ref latest simplefit log.

Yeah, I saw it the other day. Have you considered a different WO - not simplefit?

I got really bored with it. I think the 8wk design is great, but if you have a longer learning curve, it gets pretty monotonous. I also think it could be dangerous - my elbows are still trying to recover.

Yeah, I'm adding bits and pieces to the end of my technical drills. Somewhat inspired by simplefit, but also picking stuff from ross enamait to keep things interesting. I've been doing the CFWU for some time as well.
If I pass my grading in december I'll start a new strength program. Probably nothing crossfit related as I don't have a proper set of weights available. More likely I'll try something from "Infinite Intensity"

Almost Finished Resting

15:00 minutes on the rower. Rolled it outside in the sun. 85 degrees. Felt great. Logged 101 calories - my rower doesn't count distance :( I am starting to feel refreshed and ready to jump back into the WODs. I almost did yesterday's - but made myself wait. I'll get in after the next rest day. Oh, I still feel the swim!

AMRAP in 10 minutes 100m sprint (25m out n back x2) 10 situps 10 supermans 5 rds + 50m Did this in the school basket ball/ volleyball gym. I was able to be barefoot on the wooden court. Very comfy. I had a little twinge in my back from carrying this front-loaded fat vest but it's way better than it has been.

AMRAP in 10:00 5 DL @ 215lbs 5 Burpees 5 Squat Cleans @ 105lbs 5 Burpees Total - 4 rounds huffing and puffing. Thanks to Charles for giving me this one on FaceBook. His suggested weights were 300 on the DLs and 185 on the cleans. I knew better than to try that! HA! Warmed up with OHS and pigeons. The OHS stuff with the bar and not PVC - time to be a big boy!
