Today's workout:

Baseline: 20 x Sand Bag Get-ups (each side)

Work Capacity For Time:
25 x Burpees
100 x Wall Balls
100 x Double Unders
25 x Burpees

I subbed 10 minutes of kb windmills and bottoms up press/walk for the 1 mile run. I need to work on my kb skills.

My work capacity time was 18:14. Worked up to a 350x3 3RM. Very tired today and it felt much heavier than usual. Worked at 315x3 for my stamina.

Should be interesting. Skip wall balls if you don't have a ball/medicine ball to throw. Sub 150 jumps with a jump rope for the double unders if you can't do them.

Post your numbers

[mxmatt15]

to be honest i have not been timing myself yet. i wanted to do 2-3 wks of sealfit to get my body used to it and then start tracking. hows your workout going.

Personally I would start timing things right away if these workouts are timing based. Even when you are "just getting used to the workouts". The reason is that beating your times will be very motivational as you go along. For example, recently I decided to see how many kettlebells snatches I could do in 5 minutes without putting it down. Even the very first week I timed and kept track of reps, even though I was just trying it out the first week. Having some sort of tangible target to beat each week helped me push hard even when I didn't necessarily feel like it. Even if your times are bad to start with, it will be very satisfying to see how much they improve. If you don't start recording times until you get decent at the workouts, the improvements seem much smaller by comparison.

[mxmatt15]

i guess you do have a point. but im already half way in so i will start next week

[wearedbleedblue]

Start timing today, no need to wait until some arbitrary day like Monday. Every day matters, not just beginning of a week.

Today's workout:

Baseline: ROM Drills. 15 - 10 - 5 Pistol, HSPU
Work Capacity - 3 rounds for time:
Run 1 mile, Row 2,000M

Durability: 50 x GHD sit-ups. 50 x GHD Back Extensions. Active Stretch 10 minutes.

Did the work capacity in 48:22. Started to get mentally defeated on the rows and slowed down but kept up an 8min mile pace. Not bad for rarely running over a 400m pace.

[mxmatt15]

could you explain this to me.....ROM Drills. 15 - 10 - 5 Pistol, HSPU? and how would you preform the rows

[wearedbleedblue]

ROM drills are mobility work. Don't worry about that too much right now. Pistols are one legged bodyweight squats. You can do them from a box until you get the hang out it. HSPU is a handstand push up. You just do a handstand against a wall and push yourself up and down.

You need a rowing machine/ergometer to do the rowing. I'm not sure where you workout but almost every gym has at least one rower.

ok so im really getting frustrated because my POS gym doesn't have the **** i need to do most of my workouts. couldnt do the rows today because there is no row machine. no jump rope. and the list goes on. i go to xsport express so the fckin place is small as **** and has limited equipment. i think im going to start looking for a new gym. i usually go after work so i need something 24hrs but dont want to pay like 50 a month at lifetime. im gonna check out cardinal.

I don't know what any of those places are but good luck.

im trying to get 348 grams of protein daily so i wont loose any muscle mass. bit of a challenge

[wearedbleedblue]

Way too much protein. Way too much. Don't believe the hype.

[mxmatt15]

ive been told 2 grams per pound

[wearedbleedblue]

ive been told 2 grams per pound

Thats very excessive. If you are exercising and eating well you don't need more than 1g/lb of protein. I get by with less than that on a regular basis and I'm actually adding mass.
