First WOD/lift in 2 weeks.  Felt good.

090204 – Bench Press

5 x 5 @ 135lbs.; 2 x 1 @ 155lbs.; 1 x 1 @ 165lbs.

I’m going to work on my pressing strength once again. It’s becoming obvious that my years in the globo gym were spent Squatting while others spent their time Bench Pressing!

Short MetCon

TitanFit WO

5 Rounds of:

250m Row
10 – Bench Press (115lbs – Scaled from BWT)
10 – 20lbs. Wall Ball

Time = 12:59

This is nearly a four minute improvement on my time from back at the end of February. Worked alongside DJ, which helped me push through. He can row on the C2 very well. As always, the Bench Press was the hardest. I’ve really got to start working on that, as one of my goals is Linda, as prescribed.

Weakness

“Work on Weaknesses”

Bench Press x5x3 @ 135lbs.

I hate bench press.

An Awesome Day @ TitanFit

This past week, for whatever reason, I’ve strayed from the diet a few times. Beginning with dinner tonite, I’m going to be serious about my diet again. I’ve got all the groceries that I need for a week of healthy Zoning.

Today was a great day for me at TitanFit. I set a new PR after doing my MetCon for the day. It was also nice to finally meet Mary.

TitanFit WO

5 Rounds of:

250m Row
10 – Bench Press (115 lbs.)
15 – Wall Ball Shots (20 lbs. Ball)

Time = 16:44

As always, the Bench Press is what slowed me down. By the third round I was able to get 5 or 6 reps, but thereafter it was only 2 or 3 reps at a time. But I’m still working on my Press exercises and making progress.

After the MetCon I worked on my Snatch. I had no plan to find my 1RM, it just kind of happened. I did several sets at 95 lbs. and 115 lbs., finally working up to my new PR of 135 lbs.

It felt good and had I not done the MetCon first I think I could have easily gotten more weight. One thing that I liked about performing it after the MetCon was that it makes you concentrate on your form. My arms were like jello after the BP and Wall-Ball shots. So I was really forced to use my jump and hip extension to elevate the bar and get beneath.
