In sight...

Talking bout that finish line, only a week and a half left in the Academy, test tomorrow, not worried. 

No class PT today so I headed over to the LTA Gym (Medina) for some work.

2000m row 8:18.8 (weak sauce)

I remember when I hit the 7:50, I'll get there again with some dedication to rowing.

Warmed up with HPC @ 135# - 155# x 5

There's nothing wrong with a good snatch(pull)

Snatch Pull Triples up to 245

Messed around in the "lifting" area on the incline doin 135 5x5 (for no real reason other than I didn't feel like leaving and the rack was full of assholes reverse curling)

I seriously detest curling in the rack.

My post-workout meal, AKA dinner, was less than ideal.  Cabana bowl (no shell/rice/bean) with Fajita beef, lettuce, pico, cheese, and Sour cream.  I also stopped by the DFAC for some extra chicken breast to bump up the protein count for the day.  Could have made a wiser choice and just got a shake, they were probably the worst cooked chicken breasts in history, like jerky.  I busted out the fancy salami from Trader Joes just to add some moisture to the chicken so it could be eaten.  Needless to say I can't wait to be home and be able to cook again.

Dirty Thirty - Their Way

Todays WOD - AMRAP 15 Min

Squat x30
Push up x30
Mountain Climber x30 (each leg)
Situp x30
Lunge x30 (each leg)
Burp x30
Squat Thrust x30

Result: 1 round plus 30 squats.

Pushups are my weakness when they are Chest2Floor so it was slow getting through those and slow through the "Burps" (Push up/Thrust combo)

At least I didn't have to put the blue suit back on after sweating like a champ...



I do make that shit look good though...could use a haircut...




The class calls these my Ninja Turtle shoes.

Why not.

As in why not do everything.
Bench 3x5 @190#
Squat 6x2 @ 275#
Dead lift 405# x1
Hang Power Clean 5x4 @ 135#

Energy was low as I didn't have breakfast, not for lack of trying. But I made up for it at lunch with some Smash Burger Paleo-ish Smash Hash.




Ive been tracking food on My Fitness Pal lately.  Its decent, although I'm not a huge fan of it not counting strength as burning calories...  Tracks my macros either way.

Tabata Fridays

Yesterdays workout included Tabata Squats, Pushups, Situps and Squat Thrusts.  8 Rounds each.

Very painful.

Thursday was 21-15-9 Burps (bottom half of a burpee)-Situps-Squats, 400m run before each round, and at the end of the last round (17min?)

Tomorrow its all about goin heavy, and I cant wait.  I also decided to jump back on MyFitnessPal to track what I eat, especially concerning Macros, and try to keep me on the "eating clean" bandwagon ESPECIALLY now that my wife is thinking about Paleo diet.

I should also note that I've had almost an entire gallon of water today and still aint pissing clear, which leds me to deduce that I wasn't doing my due diligence at drinking my water.
