Christmas countdown

So I have finished all my shopping and was able to grab stuff for the nieces and nephews along with stuff for my own boys. I am pretty sure that my wife will be happy with what Santa brings her this year...

yesterday and today I was able to get in two workouts. Yesterday I tweaked my back a little bit and cut it short so I wouldn't put myself out of commission. So today I was able to get into the gym early and see how things would go. After a good warm up I felt no discomfort and was able to get after it. Some dynamic pushups and pull ups on the TRX then KB swigs and bent rows followed by 1 min of double unders and 1 min of Burpees. All felt good. After that I did single motion dumb bell squats, curls to push press 4x10 with 50 knee to elbows. Got a good sweat and back felt great.

I only have about 2 more weeks of hard weights and will be focusing on single leg isolation with some back work. Then I will be on the bike an in the pool! 2011 is right around the corner the 12 days till Christmas starts this weekend!

12/4/10 WOD

still have a cold and will be taking the next couple days to get better.

Today I performed "CINDY" 5 pull ups, 10 push ups, 15 air squats AMRAP for 20 minutes.
I performed 27 rounds in 20 min.

I beat my last number by 3 rounds.

happy birthday to my big brother good luck at the jolly jaunt!

the next step

I took off the weekend of Thanksgiving just because I didn't want to feel like I was chasing a workout and rushing to get things done. I Had some light activity and an easy run on Sunday the 28th. Monday I did Cross fit again, BARBARA. It was brutal but great all at once. I am seeing some strides in my back and pull ups got all 20 in all 5 sets. I used wrist wraps to fasten my hands to the bar. I hope to move past them this winter .

I know have a pretty good cold. Felt it come Monday afternoon. I ran an easy 8min/mi yesterday for 30 mins. Just to sweat. Going to have active recovery today and CrossFit tomorrow. I am now getting ready for the next step. In building my strength for the upcoming season. I will have about 4-5 weeks more of CrossFit training then will start to implement my tri training for 2011!
