More shoulder torture!

I passed out around 9:00 last night....clearly I needed it. I barely moved during the night and my alarm startled me awake, I probably could have slept another 3 hours at least! I think my new Wednesday night rest day tradition is going to include dinner, an epsom salt bath, mobility work, and going to bed by 9. Perfect pick me up for the middle of the week!

Food: Breakfast: 3 eggs, 6 pieces of canadian bacon, 3 strawberries and 2 oz blackberries. Lunch: 4.5 oz steak, 3 oz cauliflower and 2 oz roasted sweet potato. Dinner: chicken fajita mix

Strength: Floor press 5(65%)-5(75%)-5+(85%) (training max moved down to 46.5 because of failed reps last week :( sad face): 5@30.5-5@35-10@39.5. Clearly I was able to make the last set. Hopefully this will help me get back up to a better training max..

WOD: complete 5 rounds for max reps/cals of: :30 dumbbell thrusters (2 25lbs) :30 rest :30 Knees to elbow :30 rest :30 row. My right shoulder was still a little sore from all the cleans in the last week, so I was a little nervous about this one. The thrusters got heavy after awhile, but I had to get the most reps there and cals on the rower because my K2E suck. I ended up with a total of 161, but I didn't feel terribly exhausted after. I think it's because the K2E I don't get as much of a fast paced work out in because I have no kip with them. But I was satisfied with my score. I'm looking forward to going back tomorrow.

Hopefully we won't have another crazy incident like mom cutting her finger and bleeding all over the place! Geez, I can't take them anywhere. And Thanks to Tommy Mo for given my P's advice on their cleans! :)

SO excited tomorrow is FRIDAY!!!! :)

You really did well today with the METCON. Truth be told, you were rowing well and hard so I was pacing my pulls directly off of yours. Thanks for the nudge.

Hope Mom Glaw's finger is okay. Geez, I saw her hand hit the bar and like your mom's reaction I didn't think much of it. Then I see her bleeding. Kinda freak-ish.

But she cleaned pretty well - just have to keep her more upright on the squat and not hunch as she gains depth on the squat after the catch. Hopefully that helped her....

BTW - I am a HUGE fan of the Epsom salt bath. Been doing those for 2+ years. HEAVEN!
