Wow! What a weekend....Above are a few pictures from this weekend. After I finished work on Friday, it was a tranquillo evening. We had a spirited MMA practice and then a protein heavy dinner of barbeque chicken and kalbi style ribs. The evening culminated with the viewing of The Ultimate Fighter semi-finals. This was a good night cap since I was pretty amped up to watch the Frank Mir v JDS fight.
Saturday
Holly and I woke up a bit early and drove about 40 minutes away to do a little hike. It was about a 3 mile hike over medium terrain. The pic above to the left is a natural bridge made by years of water passage. The pile of rocks was there a-la "Blair Witch" when we got there so we just added one to it, seemingly the point in my estimation lol. Felt good to start the day with a little active recovery. Later that day Todd, Holly and I went and saw the Men in Black 3 (not in 3D), enjoyed that a lot. By the end of the night Is settled in to watch the fight. It ended how I expected but I thought it would have lasted a bit longer.
Sunday
Barbeque with friends day. Holly spend most of the morning preparing meat for the BBQ, we went to Dan and Julies around 1PM. In order to earn your meal, there was a Memorial Day
WOD that had to be completed. It is called "21 Gun Salute" from the WOD for Warriors program. It is set up as a partner WOD. One partner completes all of the reps while the other partner waits, partner 2 completes the round and then partner one goes again, with partner completing thier second round after that. The workout was 21 pullups, 21 burpee box jumps, 21 fireman carry partner squats, 21 burpee box jumps, and 21 pullups. I will say that on paper, this didn' look tough at all. Coupled with the heat (95 deg) the workout served its purpose, it was a challenge. The pic above on the right is from that, the partners were Dan and I (WOD shirts), Todd and Omar, and poor Holly completed it as an individual. We set this up by weight. I think she was fine with it LOL, as the partner squats sucked!!! After that, we pigged out on meat and had a few norcal margaritas and watched Tosh.

Monday
Our air conditioner shit the bed! That is all....no, seriously, caught a workout in the morning. It was part of our gymnastic programming. The workout was for time complete: 20 deadlifts 315#, 20 wallballs 20", 20 DB push press 55#, 20 shoot thru's (hollow plank to arch on paralettes), and run 1000M. This took me 14:38. The rest of the day was just sweat and no sleep. We get our air conditioner fixed today!
