"New Leaf"......

Quote of the day: "The Future belongs to those who can rise above the confines of the earth"

So this past weekend after a great first week back into the grind the boys and I headed to Killington VT for a bachelor party(that's all that is going to be said). However last night we hit up the South Boston rink for some good pick up hockey. I figured between how shitty I felt and not working out I could use a good sweat. A good sweat was had until I took a slap shot off the ankle. Waking up this morning I knew it was going to be sore, however I did not think it was going to be this sore and tight. I am going to give it 24hrs to see how it feels and then maybe hit the docs. For training purposes I am on the day to day. Hopefully by this weekend I will be back in action. I plan on hitting the gym the rest of the week doing some Push ups/ Pull ups maybe some dips in preperation for getting back into the WOD'S by Saturday at the latest.

I have also been making a list of things I need to start doing on a day to day basis. When the list is finsihed I will post it and take any suggestions

So this past week/weekend was kind of a lazy get ready for Monday deal. I have decided to quit chewing(which I only had 1) in the last 4/5 days. This is pretty good for some so addicted like myself. Also I am going to really focus on the CROSSFIT and CROSSFIT ENDURENCE for the next 3 months. I weighed myself this morning and I was @ 212.4. Not to bad but to get back on the bike I really would like to be around 195. Thats 17lbs to drop before the end of March. Diet is going to play a HUGE role in this and I have somewhat of a plan. Carbs will no longer be in every meal. They will almost be thrown out besides my cheat meal on Sunday. I am thinking every sunday to have just enough carbs to get me through the week. Fruit and Vegtables will be had along with meats. The soda also has been thrown out. Lots of water and some sports rehydration drinks.

Todays WOD(crossfit) was
Deadlift 3-3-3-3-3
Trying to get to 3 rep max by the 3rd set.
205-255-285-295-255
I think 295 was pretty darn close to my 3 rep max and I felt good about it

Crossfit Endurance is a rest day and seeing I skipped 3 days I am going to do:

6min TT

3 min rest

4 min TT

2 min rest

1min TT

30 sec rest

30 sec TT

15 sec rest

15 sec TT

This should be a good sweat and a good workout to get my legs back into it.

Back Blogging

It has been awhile since my last post but I have been doing the crossfit workouts given to me by Coach Joy. In between work school and life I have done a bit of skiing. I finally broke down and went out and bought some new skis and boots. I got Dynastar "nothing but trouble" skis which are twin tipped all around skis. I could not be happier with the purchase and the guys down at Jacksons Ski and Sport hooked me up big time. Skiing has been great been to Killington twice. The first time was decent all groomed trails. However 2 weekends ago we ventured up during the storm and skied on Saturday in almost 2ft of snow. Unreal day and then we stayed the night to enjoy the great Pickle Barrel. The night consisted of us watching Joy trying to dance with Auntie Kate.

For the workouts I finally cleaned up the basement and the pull up bar and weights are set and this morning was my first workout.

As many rounds in 20min of:
5 Thrusters
7 Power Hang Cleans
10 Sumo high deadlifts

RDS 8 + 5 thrusters and a few power hang cleans.

REST DAY!!!!!!!!!

Today was the rest day after three painful workouts. I am a virgin to this Crossfit workout and coach Joy really has not "eased it in" as she would say.

I actually went to the gym this morning and swam and un-timed 1/4 mile @ a nice relaxing pace. My back was a little sore from the last 3 days so I managed to sit my fat ass in the hot tub for a good 20 mins and relax.

Until tomorrow when "angie" comes into town.
